Here is Reed and Cat's new baby. Born on July 29th. He was 7lbs 4oz and 21 inches long. They are doing great and they are home from the hospital. :)

4th Of July

The kids had some fun taking the camera around. We went to Tara's for the 4th. Everyone was there but Reed and Cat. We had fun blowing off fireworks to end the great day.

Called to serve in...

ARMENIA!!!

You may wonder where that is (so did I) but I think you could consider it part of the Middle East, Europe, or Asia. I will be reporting on May 28th and speaking Armenian. I am quite excited and can't wait to start my new and challenging adventure.

Speedtest - how fast are you?

Valentine's Day

Here are pictures from our Valentine's Day Dinner. We had such a nice time. Vance got all his Valentines a balloon and some chocolates. It was especially to fun to have Sarah and Brett and hear their engagement story and share wedding plans. Mom and Dad were there along with Vance, Diane and boys, Kirsten and kids, Maureen and girls, and Aunt Fran.




Some were a bit stubborn about having a picture taken, but it was fun trying. (By the way Shelbi has a darling new haircut!)

Valentine's Dance

Hello All- Last Friday night was so much fun. The Sandy Arts Guild held a ballroom dinner dance night. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN! I just thought I would share a picture with you. My parents went with us as well as some of our other friends. Here is a picture of Richelle and I. :)

Peek-a-Boo

Victor Jay has learned to play peek-a-boo so we took a short video with our camera to share. He is 10 months old; I can hardly believe it! We love you all, Jay and Amy

I HOPE THEY CALL ME ON A MISSION

You heard it right - Katie wants to go on a mission. Her first interview is tonight and doctor appointments are set. She is SO excited and knows that is what she is suppose to be doing right now. Stay tuned...

Proud Uncle

Here is Ben holding Carson just before they went to church. As you can see Carson is not lacking for food, although he would tell you he is. He has gained over 3 lbs in a month, pretty good for a little feller. Speaking of growing boys, Ben has put on 25-30 lbs since August plus an inch or so.

Carson was blessed in sacrament meeting yesterday. It was a beautiful blessing. Jenn was able to get the blessing down word for word. Both Dave and Melanie bore their testimonies which were very touching. Melanie testified that in her new role as a parent of how she has learned about how our Heavenly Father feels about us as his children. She told of how she knows what Carson's cries mean and how much she wants to comfort him- whether he is hungry, cold, hurt, and just needs to be held. She connected that thought to how Heavenly Father knows our cries and what we need. He knows us well, how to comfort us, and how to take care of our needs.

Yes its true I am finally a MRS.

For those of you who thought I was never going to get married (myself included) here is proof it ACTUALLY happened!!! I am waiting patiently for the rest of the pictures, but here is a quick sneak preview!!!
LOVE YA JENN O.

The Driggs Family7

While Blake and Julie were here in Mesa, we went to the Mesa Art Museum and had fun taking pics at different locations. None of them are what I call print worthy but thought I'd share one. Bless Mark's heart, he had surgery the day before and still managed to smile!

Handsome Carson is Here!

Here are a couple of pictures of Carson Crockett, born December 24, 2007 at 1:03 AM. Quick glance he definitely is a Crockett, but he does have Mel's nose, upper lip, and big eyes. He's quite the handsome guy if you ask me:-)
