Sweet family!

I took this picture the Sunday before everyone began arriving! I took pictures of all the kids before church and other than Jacob-all were smiling well for the camera. I got everyone's in the mail-except Jamie and Kevin-I realized I didn't have your current address! (please send it to me if you can!) I have sweet children!!!

Ron's family visits

We have had ALL of Ron's kids come to visit over the last few weeks. Britni has been here for the last 2 weeks. Her husband showed up last Thursday. Brandon (the oldest boy) was here for 9 days and Travis and Melissa have been here for over a week. We have been busy-including celebrating two birthdays, Cameron's going away party, family pictures, bowling night, baseball game and lots more!

Tulips

I had to put a picture on of my tulips. I always love the tulips. This year with the cold weather they are way late in coming up. For a while we wondered if they would even make it. We also got snow on them last week and thought we would lose most of them, but here they are. I love spring.

St. George Trip

We recently went to St. George because Robbie had to attend "Road School" down there for Pleasant Grove City. It was nice because the city paid and the weather in St. George was beautiful. As most of you know, we have had a really cold winter and spring here in Utah so any escape to warm temperatures is always welcome. I just hung out with the kids during the day either swimming, going to the park, or taking walks on the nature trails. Then Robbie spent the evening with us. We visited his cousin that lives in St. George one night. The kids had fun. Cade found the ninja turtle gear and had to have it. The one picture is Shayla actually at Scott and Merrilee's house. She found the girls dress up shoes and purses. She loves being a girl. The next picture is of the cactus in bloom in St. George. I told Robbie that is the prettiest I ever remember seeing St. George. Everything was in bloom and very green (for the desert).

Here is Shayla's two year birthday. I could not help but send the second picture. I thought here killer look was priceless. Shayla is so into being a princess. She loves to be pretty and wear dresses and skirts. Shayla is really talking a lot and today after nursery came home singing "Follow Follow Me" and "Twinkle, Twinkle little Star."

Arizona Lake Trip

Here are some pictures of our trip to the lake with Jana. We had a great trip. The weather was beautiful and the company was great. My kids and I loved riding on Ron's boat. Loved the lake and the park and all the other fun activities that we did while being in Arizona.

Enjoying our visit with Kent!!

We have really enjoyed having Kent with us since Wednesday. The weather has been gorgeous and every day when the kids come home from school we have headed outdoors to play at the park. We have flown a kite, played football and Bocce ball and rode bikes. On Friday, Kent went fishing in the early morning hours with Ron and Cameron and did catch a fish! When they got home we headed to the boat races-which was a blast. The kids had a school carnival that night so we enjoyed that with them. He has done more dishes than any kid in our home as ever done (ALL without asking) and I've decided he can move in whenever he wants!! Hee!! I feel bad I never took any pictures when Donna was here so I hope she will post some of the pictures of the day we went to the lake with her family. We have LOVED having family visit!

Cameron's Temple Day

We enjoyed a great day in the temple yesterday. Here is a picture of a few of our friends who stayed after to take a picture. We were grateful that Aunt Lynette, Aunt Edra and Kimberli and her husband were able to join us as well. We had our old bishop and his wife come from North Phoenix as well as our current bishop. (He is pictured with his wife, right behind Kent and on the end.) We stopped afterwards at Cameron's favorite eating spot - Pei Wei. It was a great day!

Family Visit

We had fun in Willard today visiting! We enjoyed beautiful weather. I'm sure that Yvonne, Nicole and Kas had better pictures but I thought I would share a few. I emailed everybody the link to the album of my pictures on facebook. But I thought I would also post a few pictures here. Here is the public link if you didn't receive my email (Jana, I didn't realize that I had your new email address at home until I just remembered that you emailed Kevin a Happy Birthday message, so I guess we do have it at home now!)

Gone Fishin'

I know this is the Jarvis Family Blog, but I thought this picture was so cute. We went fishing with my dad and niece and nephew yesterday and I just loved this picture. Garrett was quite the fisherman. You should see him cast! Ron, you would be so proud!Hailey caught a big one! She was so proud! I think her grandpa was just as proud.

Our Spring Break

Here are a few pictures from our vacation. I'll try and send you an on-line link sometime soon to view them all.

Jana & Ron's Family

I needed to update my picture of Jana & Ron's family on my fridge. So, I made them pose for a picture before they headed back to AZ. Here it is! What a good-looking group!

Sleepy Sydney & Swimming Lessons

Guess the book worked!


The kids (except Sydney) had swimming lessons on all of the Saturdays in March. Spencer passed level 4, and the girls are going to repeat level 3. They all had a lot of fun, and they are all progressing well! Spencer went off the high dive for the first time. Andi and Alyssa went off the low dive for the first time.
