Happy 21st Birthday!

Happy Birthday to US! August 14th was our 21st birthday! I love being a twin! We have had so much fun together! Its great sharing our birthday together. Luckily we were able to get together on the 15th to celebrate our birthday. I love you Ky! You are going to be a fabulous missionary!



On the 14th, I called Scott on my way home from work and asked him what we were doing for my birthday tonight, and he said that he wasn't feeling good, and that he just wanted to stay home... I knew something was up, because Scott knows how much I love birthdays! Well I got home from work and the house was all clean and there were PINK presents and flowers on the table. And then I asked him what we were doing, and he stuck with his story that we were just staying home, and he had ordered pizza. Well as I was opening my presents there was a knock on our door, and in comes my good friends, Natty and Josh. Then Jenni shows up, then Cincere Lee and her family.... they just kept coming! Then Mace and Melissa, Kurt and Liz and Erik and Teresa showed up. It was so fun! We just ate pizza and hung out in our tiny little apartment. It was a great 21st birthday. I love all of our friends down here in Arizona. Thanks for coming everyone! Thanks for a fun birthday Scott! Love you!

Utah trips

This summer has been so busy! We have been up to Utah quite a few times, and still have a few more planned. So we are a little behind on our postings. We went up over the fourth of July. We stopped in Lake Powell on our way up and spent a day there with my best friend, Mandy, and her family. We had a ton of fun! And then we went up to Sandy and went to the parade with my family and to fireworks on the fourth. The fifth we went to our niece's baptism, and then to a rodeo with my parents and sister. Then we went back up to Utah July 16-20th for an Andrewsen camping trip. We had a ton of fun! We camped at Yuba Lake, and went boating. We had a lot of fun with our nieces and nephews who we don't see nearly enough! Scott taught his neices how to knee board, he was pretty tired, but wouldn't have it any other way. Then Kylie went through the temple and took her endowments out July 19th. That was awesome to be able to go through the temple with my twinner. Afterwards we went to Red Robin for lunch. It was a busy trip, and they are never quite long enough.

better late than never

Scott had is 28th birthday on June 22nd. We're a little late posting about it, but oh well! We had a ton of fun on Scott's birthday this year. Which is good because Scott always hates his birthdays. He tries so hard to not make them a big deal. So I try even harder to make them a big deal! On Saturday, June 21st, we went cliff diving with Scott's bud from college and his wife and a few other people. It was so fun! We had to hike a short distance to get there, which felt longer in the heat. When we got there it was just a narrow river surrounded by cliffs. We had a lot of fun. When we got home, we went to In-n-Out for dinner, and then to see the Incredible Hulk. Just what Scott wanted to do. Sunday, his actual birthday, I made him breakfast in bed. He opened all his presents and then we went to church. When we got home he took a long nap, and then we had a wonderful rib eye dinner. Some of our friends came over for cake and ice cream later that night. He told me it was a great birthday, nice and relaxing. Woo Hoo! It was a success! Happy Birthday Baby, I sure love you!

Happy Father's Day

We love our dads! They are the best dads in the whole world. I have lots of respect for both of them. Scott's dad is the regional financial controller over all of Africa and Europe for the church. They moved over to Germany two days after we got married. He is doing great over there! His German is getting pretty good too. What a fun adventure for him and Trudy. My dad found out that he has Lymphoma Cancer right after Thanksgiving 07. They started Chemo treatments right away. It was really hard for our family to take in. He's been really strong through the whole thing. He has hopefully finished his last series of treatments. He went in for testing last week and we will find out the results this week, and then we will know if he needs to continue the Chemo treatments. Our dads are definately the rocks of our families. We love you both very much! Thank you for everything!
