A week and a half ago Andrew, Summit and I went to Utah for my friend Emily's wedding. It was such a priviledge to be there with her. Emily was my first roommate at BYU my freshman year in U Hall at DT. It was so cool to be a part of the sealing. I was able to reflect on my own sealing and the words that were spoken there. How awesome that we can be with our families forever. We are so blessed. While we were out there we were able to visit with some old friends which was a blast too. Thanks Lindsey and Wally for letting us crash...you guys are great!!!
Summit and I also started our second session of music class. It is so fun and Summit is learning so much. He loves to sing (even though he can't say the words), dance, and head bang (thanks to Austin). Anyone with little kids should check it out. http://www.musictogether.com/ They have classes all over the country. It's amazing the power that music has on such a little child.
Andrew and I also started class at Sierra College in Rocklin. Andrew is taking College Algebra to refresh so he's ready to take the GRE and I am taking a guitar class. I'm so excited. I learned to play my first song The Ding Dong song. It only has three notes but it's great. Hehehehe.
Austin is getting ready to go into high school. We already signed the paperwork and next month he starts registering. I can't believe how old he is. The times just flies by. He is still taking guitar lessons and doing great! Everyday he comes home from school with a new song he learned with his friends during lunch. It's hard to find him without a guitar in his hands.
And of course as always, I've been crafting. Here is my latest project. Our friends, The Hamberlin's had an adorable little boy. Tisha had told me about this cool frame that she wanted to make for her baby Tanner. When Andrew and I saw the idea we fell in love with it and decided to make two of them, one for the Hamberlin's and one for Summit's room. Here is Tanner's...Summit's isn't done yet. The first one is always the hardest so hopefully his will take a little less time. One reason this frame is so cute is the amazing font I used. A dear friend of mine is an incredibly talented font artist and I'm so grateful for her sharing with me. This font is called P.S. I love you. I've had a few people comment on it so if you are interested you can find it here. http://shop.scrapbookgraphics.com/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=53 They are super cheap to buy and they make any craft project, Relief Society handout or digi scrapbook page so much cuter. Thanks Islandmom!
I think that sums it all up. We're staying busy but loving life at the same time!

Cool frame. I can't believe Austin's going into high school. I'm trying not to hyperventilate when I think about sending Lily to kindergarten this year. :)
Your Utah trip sounded awesome. I wish I could have seen you! Take care!

I am a crafter living in the body of a ... crazy person who decides that building our own home is a good idea. Here we are about 4 years later on the final stretch and I haven't even had a moment since. Good for you. I dream of letting my inner crafter out someday.
