MORE Videos!


So just a few more fun videos of the Volleyball weekend. 



This video is of Gillian making Marley laugh. All you have to do is shake her a little and she busts out laughing! It's cute! I have such an awesome little niece! 




The next video is Me trying to show you Tarren playing volleyball, but of course I got distracted by the baby once again! Sorry Tarren, next time I will try and focus! 


HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

We went out to dinner on Fathers Day with the whole crew. For the kiddies they had these little bull hats. We made tarren put one with Marley. And then Trey and Tarren wore them the whole time we ate. While Marley threw hers on the ground over and over because her Aunt Meygen is a sucker and kept picking it up!

The Big Fountain!

After Tarren's last game we celebrated by the fountain. And my celebrated I mean Tarren started taking off his clothes. Such a weirdo! He was acting crazy as usual, but hey thats what makes him fun! 

Tarren and Me at the fountain. He is such a good little big brother. 
He will always be my little brother that I used to dress up, even if he does tower over me at 6'5'

Volleyball and The Pool!

Just some more fun pics from the games! Marley was a little upset (Tarren's team lost) but don't worry because Nanna will be there to console her! Such a good Nanna Jennifer! 

Marley all snuggled up with her Nanna! 

It's okay Marley, Tarren will get it back. Don't be sad!


FUN AT THE POOL 

Back at the Inn we finally got some down time from the games. So we decided to go for a little swim. None of us lasted too long because the weather was a little gloomy! But it was still fun, Gillian brought out Marley's floaty which she loves. Even though it was freezing she just kept splashing and having a ball. She kept trying to drink the water, but Momma Gillian put a stop to that! LoL! 
Marley and her floaty!

Marley looks like she is trying to jump out of her floaty and into the pool head first!

Fruit Leather!

Marley discovered Fruit Leather! 
It was very funny to watch, we were all sitting around the table playing Phase Ten when Gillian let Marley suck on a piece of Fruit Leather. Well apparently she was super excited about it, because if anyone even came near it she would start freaking out. She sucked on that thing like it was her last meal! It was funny. When Momma Gillian finally took it from her I think she cried and cried. She was super mad at Mom for that one.

Marley and her Fruit Leather! 

She wouldn't let it go! 

Funny how the little things can keep the Adults entertained for a long time!

Random Funnies!

So the boys would play like every other hour. So some days we would have a lot of down time. So during this downtime we would get a little silly. We played games, ate, played with the baby... or sometimes just stared at the baby. Everything she does is cute... even when she is sleeping! lol! 
Marley eating out of her mesh bag. 
It is the coolest thing. You can put anything in it like a piece of fruit or veggie that would normally be too big for her to eat, and she just sucks on it. I think it is the coolest invention ever... She would just suck and suck and go to town on whatever Gillian put in that bag! This day she was eating grapes... or I guess I should say sucking on grapes!  


Grandma just being crazy Grandma! 
She is demonstrating how to drink your Hansen soda correctly! 

Marley was taking the view from way up high on Trey's head. 
I bet its a lot different view than she is used too! 




This is a fun video. It's Marley dancing around on Gillian's lap during the Volleyball game. She was giving everyone a show. Sometimes it was hard to remember to watch the game... and not her! She is so sticking cute!

Volleyball Fun..... Lots and Lots of Volleyball!

So while I was in San Diego missing my hubby, I was visiting with my family and watching lots and lots of Volleyball. My brothers Trey and Tarren were both in a volleyball tournament the weekend I was visiting, so I got to see them both play which was crazy fun. I never knew my brothers were so talented. They were so great... they both have some much athletic talent... its almost unfair to the other kids. Trey and Tarren were so good they were both dominating on there teams. Fun Fun! 

We stayed at the Marriot Inn, with the other volleyball boys. And Gillian, Marley, Mom, and Grandma were all there to cheer the boys on. Well and not to mention let me play with and smother my little niece. So cute! So fun! 

At breakfast with Marley and Gillian. 
Marley was always the center of attention. Even if she was just eating cherrios! 

Grandma and Marley at the Volleyball Games! 

Tarren was so huge he barley had to jump at all to stop the ball from coming over. Crazy! 

Trey's team... So good! 
There games were so intense to watch! 

I didn't know that Volleyball could be so much fun!

Musical Fun

Music... Music... Music...

So I went to San Diego a few weeks ago mainly to see my mom perform in her choir. The choir is the Orange County version of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, so its a big deal! It was there big summer concert and boy was it awesome. The concert was in this really crazy looking building... it almost looked like a wave it was cool. The theme of the concert was "America", so they did a lot of traditional songs, but they really are an amazing group. I will be excited when they get there professional CD put out so that you all can hear how truly talented this group of  individuals is. My mom is an amazing singer and it was so great to hear her in musical element. I love listening to my moms voice. She really is an inspiration, I often wished that my musical talent was as great as hers. 

It was so great to hear them sing and the arrangements of so many traditional songs were just incredible. You really could feel the talents just bursting out of that room. My mom even made me cry when they sang a long lost verse of "Love at Home", I got a little teary. It was beautiful. I hope that I can hear them sing once again soon!
