Memorial Day Madness

Our friends Greg and Carmen had this amazing party on Memorial Day. It felt like half of our ward was there, along with a bunch of friends and neighbors of Greg and Carmen. They rented this huge blow-up waterslide and then they had a smaller slip-n-slide on a hill for the smaller kids. Tons of food and all our friends, it was such a fun day!! We were exhausted by the time we got home. I managed to capture a few fun moments on the camera. I hope everyone else had a great Memorial Day as well. Love to all-DeEtte





This is Lily and her "best friend" Sydney. Aren't they cute?

This is Lily and her "best friends" Sydney and Karis sliding down the hill together. Basically Lily calls everyone her best friend, even random strangers that we meet at the park.

Congratulations Jamie & Carly!!

Today Jamie and Carly went to the temple and were sealed together for time and all eternity. We're so so so happy for both of them and are so glad that they found each other in this wicked crazy world!

We wish we could've been there, but I swear we were there in spirit. Congratulations you guys, we love you!!!

See you in a couple months :)

Weekend in Review

Well, we've had a busy few weeks, but it's all over now. All the family departed this morning, leaving just us McPherson/Mann Californians. And despite the adorableness of Baby Jane to fill the void, it feels just a bit empty in the house right now. We had such a good time with my parents for the last few weeks and it was just so cool that they could be here. Chelsea, Shawn and Cora came down this weekend for Jane's blessing and some family-filled fun on the side. We all had a cool time, they got to see Connor pitch (4 strikeouts and 2 walks, that's right y'all he's off the hook!), hit up a Padres Game (Thank you Mike Shustek-even though we went to the one game of the series they lost :( ) and just enjoyed being together. The kids particularly had a great time playing together and Cora was none too happy to discover that Lily was not going with them when they left this morning! But life has to get back to normal...at least normal for us. Here's a few cute pics of the game and whatnot...hit up Chelsea's blog (hopefully) for cute pictures of Jane on her blessing day.

Lily is now incapable of just standing normally in a picture. She has to strike a pose and make the silliest face possible. Pretty cute, but it can get annoying.

Luckily for us, Lily's Khalil jersey from last season was still in the drawer and it fit Cora perfectly, so she could represent!! Even Chelsea wore Devyn's Padres shirt...so Shawn and Michael were the only losers with us.


I swear, Lily did have fun at the game, she was just a little beat by the time we got home.


SSHHHH!!! I'm trying to sleep people!!

Jane Watch-Day 8

Seriously, these top two pictures are probably my favorite so far..

Could she be any smaller? I love it that Michael's sitting at the computer, it just feels so right.

Little ball of cuteness, that's what she is.


Best Auntie Ever. Whoops, did I say that out loud?
