I recently got to fly home to Washington with Banks for my childhood-best friend Jenna's wedding. This was a pic of me at the wedding.

 

  The day before Jenna got married we went horseback riding.  Best bachelorette  party EVER!!

 The beautiful bride!

Best friends forever..

When I was gone, I left Jeff with a "honey-do" list to finish the landscaping.  The following pictures  are of the process.Good ol' Danny always helping Jeff out,  Thanks Dan!

 Ta-Da!!  This is what I came home to!  A Beautiful, completed job.  Way to go Jeff!  He did such a great job. 

3 burning bushes.  Soon, these should be bright red!

Perhaps my favorite...my Rose of Sharon tree!

 Who doesn't love fall!?  Just a lil fun, fall decor...

Banks had lots of fun with Grandma Maruji.  She was so nice to pull him around in her wagon.  "Love you and miss you grandma!"--Banks

 

Back to the wedding...here she is!  The beautiful bride!  Jenna.  My childhood bestfriend.

Grandpa and Banks at the wedding.  What a fun car.

I love this picture!  Banks had such a great time with Grandpa.  He is soo good with lil ones.

What is wrong with this picture?  Yes, it is the beach...but sadly, Banks does have a coat because the weather wasnt the greatest.

Yes, this is what you think it is.  Dutch oven cherry cobbler.  MMMM!  Thanks Grandpa!  Oh, and Banks may or may not have stuck his hand in it and had a delicious fist full of cherries!

Being silly at the wedding.

The wedding overlooked the beautiful Columbia River.  Lots of great memories on this lake.

My Mom makes this amazing Deliciousness called Veggie Pizza.  MMMMMM its SOOO good!  My favorite mom.  Thanks so much!

Banksy and mommy playing in his Fort!  (You have to know the secret password to get in)

PENICIL PROJECT!  Shout out to Alayna....Thanks for organizing!

Banksy playing "JAM-Ball" ! 

Jeff had the opportunity to do 'sky boarding' a couple weeks ago.  This was on Deer Creek.  You'll have to ask him yourself about more details about it, as I am not exactly clear how to best describe.  He did have a great time though!

REAL Salt Lake Soccer Game.  Super fun game.  We won 3-1 !

 

Jeff and Banks at Gail's surprise birthday party!

 Alayna, Juli, Sean and Jeff performing their rendition of Oliver Twist's "I'd Do Anything".  It was priceless!  Way to go guys!!

The birthday girl.  Happy 20th Gail !!

Jeff with Gray and Siena swimming at the neighbor's pond.  Aren't these two girls so perfect and adorable!?

I love this picture.  You can just see the JOY and love these four share.  Its been almost three years I think since they've all been together.

 (Ok, I know you're getting sick of me saying this), but this too is one of my favorite pics!!  I think its just so sweet... You know how much Jeff absolutely adores his Mom.  And if you don't, hopefully this picture illustrates it.

The dessert table.  Somehow I guess I failed to get a pic of the food table.  :(  But you can see the magnificence of the dessert table nonetheless!

Look at these three HANDSOME devils! Vic, Graham, and Max.  These two boys were the BEST babysitters ever.  Man, I wish they lived closer.  They took such great care of Banks all weekend when mommy was busy in the kitchen.  Love and miss you boys!

Juli & Gail.  Soo sweet!

So, my mom was at my house when we got back to Utah (from OH) and I begged her to teach me to make her divine homemade rolls.  AND!...this was the finished product.  Not bad, eh?  I'm pretty sure I ate 5 the first day...and 5 the next day........

This was my DELICIOUS coconut pecan pancake birthday breakfast.  Thank you Alayna for the best breakfast ever!  It was sooo yummy.  Happy birthday to me!

This is what I found in my suite case when I was packing for Park City!

I guess Banksy wanted to make sure we didnt forget him!
