Junge Beat Confirmed

Jake is channeling Axel Rose is this pic. I love listening to him play the guitar.


Can I just say that I think my husband is so sexy! I love him so much and feel like the luckiest girl in the world. It's amazing when you find someone that knows exactly who you are and still loves you anyway.


Gelica and Jake have been bonding through some guitar playing and singing. She has amazing musicality. She crescendo's when Jake does, intensifies when he does, stops on cue when he does, & adapts her lyrics to the tone & melody of the guitar.

A drummer is born.

Presenting......"Scary Forest."

Gelica busted out this little number out of the blue one day. She made up the lyrics on spot. If you listen closely you can hear lyrics about a scary forest & monsters chasing her. At one point she sings "Help!"

Impromptu lyrics sang by Angelica White. Accompanied by Jake Garner. Titled by Angelica White

Summer Activities

Keith and Cherie bought a boat this summer. We got to score a ride with them and enjoy a beautiful afternoon at Willard Bay.



Keith & Cherie both rocked it at wake boarding. We even got to see some tricks. Jake tried out wake skating and liked that.


There were some pretty awesome biffs all around. Keith was thrown off the wake skate & did a little roadrunner movement in the air with his feet. It was awesome. Cherie got slapped pretty hard in the face & Jake pretty much drank his fill of water for the next month.


We were all pretty tired at the end of the day. None more then Jayda who stuck out all of the activity like a champ. She really likes when the boat is going fast fast fast.

Cherie & Keith have been really awesome this summer and have let us tag along when they go rock climbing. They are awesome at it. If it wasn't for Keith & Cherie, we seriously would have had no life this summer. Thanks guys!


My second attempt at out door rock climbing. Biggest fear = putting my fingers onto a crevice with a spider. Uck!


We took Gelica to spend some time with her before she moved. She did really great & told us "When I get a little bit taller, I will rock climb with the rope."

And the rock climbing award goes to........

Our only other summer activity has been working outside. It was so fun when the flowers on the lilies started blooming.

We get a couple of small pink flowers each day that are very pretty.

The giant yellow flowers are my favorite. They are about the size of a large soft ball. We only get 1-2 flowers every couple of days.

The Summer of Babies

It is baby madness around here. If you look back at my pics through winter, you will see pregnant women in all of the party shots. Now all of our parties of full of babies, nursing, crying, & diapers.

Featured is: Desie & Seth, Cherie & Ryan, Annie & Jayda - Cherie & Annie's babies are mixed up.


We scored Jayda for a night. She liked the fish, but she was more interested in putting them in her mouth then feeding them.


I made her a little do-rag so we could be twins.

She was pretty patient with me while I tried all of my headbands on her. She needs some legs warmers to go with that headband. "She's a maniac, maniac, on the floor. And she's dancing like she's never danced before."

Busted.

Jon likes to hike Seth's pants up to his arm pits. I would cry too if I thought my pants were going to swallow me alive. ;-)
