Starring . . . Julia Jetti Jones!

Sweet Julia entered into the world on May 3rd, 2010! What a joyful occasion! I have so MANY pictures of her...and it takes forever but I'll try a few.


She was tiny and light and so fun to finally hold. She makes her Nana very happy.


I got a call early that morning. Charlyn wasn't sure it was even happening since Julia wasn't supposed to come for at least 3 weeks . . . but we quickly got THAT figured out and her and Ben headed to the hospital. I had a bit of a drive ahead of me but they kept me posted thru my cell. Ha! Suddenly things were happening. Julia had to come by emergency C-section. I missed the birth but so grateful that everything was alright. Isn't she beautiful?

She's here!!!!

Our sweet little wiggler is here at last . . . born Sept 11th at 10:18
pm. Her name is Susan Jolene . . . . She was 8 lbs. 2.4 oz and 20 inches long. Angie says she "seems to be a very calm and sweet baby and we are so excited to have her in our family!"



How did she get her name? Andrew wanted to name her Lilly and after some research, it was discovered that Lilly in Hebrew is Susan . . . so Susan it is. What a great story Andrew will get to tell when he gets older. It was a wonderful surprise for Susan to be born on her Great Grandma Jolene Walker's birthday . . . so she was named after her in her honor. So now you know!

Love is in the Air!

Looks like we have another wedding in the works! :) Not a big surprise!


Tim and Kat are officially engaged...and their life together will begin on December 17th. They are getting married in the Salt Lake Temple at 2:20. Not sure of any of the other details but we will let you know.

Ahh, I forgot to take pictures. sigh Well, I know how to fix that.

Angie is due any time. This little one of hers loves to kick and she feels it's feet all the time in the ribs, in the sides, everywhere. We can't wait to meet this little squirmy one. We love him/her beyond measure already.


Love to all,
Renee

Happy First of September!

I've always loved September. It means the end of the 'hot' summer and onto school, cool nights, and more yummy things out of the garden.


So I'm back to freezing peaches and nectarines and the kids are back to school.


Life is delicious!!!!




It has been such a busy summer...and I have to admit, I've been feeling tired. Look what is in our yard! David, with the help of whoever he could talk into helping, has been way busy too. He should be more tired than I am.



So now we will stay Warm and cozy!!!

Here's to the Busy Days of Summer and the cool crunch of September.


Happy September!
