"Keeping people afloat"



Jon and I have been involved in and learning about real estate since we have been married. Foreclosure is now a word that most everyone is familiar with. This market is scary and hard for many people. If you or anyone you know are struggling to sell their home, or are in over their heads and need help, call us. Help them avoid foreclosure. Or if you are interested in investing or wholesale properties- Check out our blog http://www.realestatelifeguards.blogspot.com/

Jonny turns 28 (again)


HAPPY BIRTHDAY JON!
You'll be 28 forever to me!

"Hey Jules, why is everyone looking at us???"

Hey, check out Luke and his jammies and church shoes

Did I mention Jon walked around all weekend with two women, and 8 kids. Yes, we got alot of comments!

Our Trip to UTAH


How much do I love Utah! I really do! We have a timeshare and enjoyed conference weekend in Park City! It was the best trip! We experienced so much in such a short time. We went from beautiful Fall to snowy Winter and some how finished up with a great summer day tubing on the Lake! We had a blast! Julie and her kids were spontaneous and fun as vacation buddies. The kids(and Jon) had so much fun together having snowball fights and then jumping into the pool. We did the coaster, ziplines, tubing, swimming,temple square, Joseph Smith movie, and time with my brothers family. For such a short trip we did so much and had an unforgettable time! I will forever eat my ignorant words when I said as a kid, "Utah???" All I can say is 'It is a great and beautiful place.' Jules, thanks for the memories! Now get me more pictures!!

These are my boys in front of the Aaronic Priestood monument

Holding the Olympic Torch-my Dad would be so proud!(He was one of the torch runners in the Winter Olympics-Jon always was jealous of that!







Mav and Me


This is Rey sitting in the boat as we were driving to the dock! Such a fun time on the lake. The kids all tubed together, and swam (not realizing how cold it was going to be.) My awesome sister in law wake boarded like a stud. Jon and I almost died getting whipped around by my brother on the tube. Such a blast!

TWILIGHT and TV

Please do not divorce me as friends. Following the return of our AWESOME trip to Utah, (pictures to come)I have decided to better myself by decluttering my life and mind. Soooo...I have commited to no TV or uneccesarry reading! I KNOW!!!! So, though I started Twilight and was totally enjoying it, I am showing great control by not reading further. But thanks to a devoted friend Rachael, offered to give me a very detailed account of all 3 books. Thus elieviating my time, thoughts and energy that I would have exerted in reading. So, yes, I am motivated, spiritually charged and renewed to go forward with purpose and clarity with my life! (But feel free to keep me quickly updated with anything you feel is Soooo good. I was always a Cliff Note kind of person anyway!)

Our Horsey



Look, our horse has bangs too!!!
ACE

We decided to take a Big Vacation (one day trip to and from Vegas). So we stopped on the way in Calico. It was actually really fun.

I'm thinking when he took this picture of himself, he was documenting that he was in the Laundry room very tired from doing laundry.

This is Mick. He likes to think hes tough, but Im sure after this shot he giggled and laughed for along time. He's a fun kid!

Fun in the yard

I know I'm Lame

So this is kinda crazy. I use to mock all you Bloggers, and now I am one. That goes with my theory, "Never mock anything, or it will happen to you!" So how great are blogs! Now I get to talk all I want, and keep everyone updated with pics! This is like a Christmas Card all year long! I have no idea how to do pictures, but I'll figure it out. Like I had enough time on my plate already! AGHHH!
