Happy Anniversary! 26 Years

November 19th was Lance and Tami's 26 year anniversary. We celebrated on our cruise so we just went to a late lunch and watched Wallyee. We can' t believe we have been married this long and have kids married!

We went on a cruise to celebrate Tami's parents 50th wedding anniversary with 6 of the 8 siblings and their spouses. It was so much fun to relax and to enjoy each others company. Here are a few snapshots from a cruise. We went from Nov 2 2008 t0 Nov 9th 2008 We went to Cabo San Lucas and Mazatlan and Pureto Valletta

Parasailing

Tami went para sailing in Mazatlan on the cruise, she had a blast!

and is looking forward to doing it again someday!

Happy 50th!

Mom and dad celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary a couple of weeks early.They were married November 21st 1958 in Ontario California. We had a huge party for them, mom had been planning this since January! It turned out very nice and all 8 of us kids were there with our spouses, we were missing a few grand kids and great grandkids, but most everyone was there. Mom and dad have 8 children 4 boys and 4 girls 28 grandkids and 1 due in May and 8 great grandkids. My parents were married at her parents home since mom was not a member at that time. Since then they were sealed in the SLC temple May 6, 1964 and have served 2 missions and have been temple workers in the St George temple. They are great examples to us and we love them very much!

Early Christmas!!

Its that time of year, where Sharlene and I

bust out the Christmas music and get hyped for

Christmas. And yes I know its only November.

But we are die hards!! But Sharlene got an early

Christmas present last week. She would have

gotten it on Christmas, but they were on

clearance at Wal-Mart and we wanted to start

using it now. So I painstakingly spent a couple of

hours putting it together. And it was worth it. The

machine is really nice, gives me a good work out,

and Sharlene likes it (I guess that's the important part).

Now if only I can get my X-Box 360 early. :)

Meet Max

We have a new member of the Family!

Meet Max he is a Beagle, we thought he was going to be a miniature Beagle but he turned out to be a regular size ( we had no idea they even came this big!)

He is 6 months old and house broken and is a pretty good dog.

The kids all love him, he will take some getting used to since we have never had a big dog before.

Kylie has taught him how to shake and he loves to play fetch and apprently he has a shoe fetish We are learning to keep all the shoes away from him!

Kylie's Office!!!

This is Kylie's office/cubical. She got a new job working as a techie for a computer company. She is basically the coolest person ever!!

This

is her 

super cool white board.

She writes all the stuff she needs to

 remember upon it. Like her computer's ip address, and port, so that she can take over other people's computer.

This is is a receipt that she made, it took her about an hour in a

half to create. She had to install the receipt printer, path it through the software, and then design it! It's basically amazing, don't you think??
