Joel turns 30

Friends in P-land

One of my closest friends, Angie, came to visit Joel and me in Portland a couple of weeks ago and we had a blast walking all over the city with her and her friend Nolan. She loved it. We visited Multnomah Falls, spent some time watching kids breakdancing to old school Michael Jackson on the water front, saw a movie at the Bagdad Theatre, and Angie even kinda cried when she saw the awesome view from the condo.

The RS presidency came over to visit just as they got into town and about convinced Angie to move out here. Seriously, got her some job connections and everything in one little visit. I'm crossing my fingers.

Rachel steals the show

So....Rachel couldnt wait for Alyssa to come out. In fact, from the moment we arrived she kept yelling Llysa! Congratulations! Ssa! Lations!

People loved it.

Alyssa Graduates

First she had a birthday...

And then she had a graduation.....

Alyssa had the biggest balloon bouquet out of anyone there. Something to be proud of....

I think Rick is jealous.....

4th of July in B-town

The Udall-Harrises had a fun and festive 4th. The weather was perfect, we bbq'd some dawgs, I shot off some fireworks, then we headed down the road to a golf course where the city put on a decent fireworks show; and the kiddos didn't cry to boot (woo woo). Here are some photos. Hope everyone had a fun day too.

Big D and Lady Di's Casa in the D.R.!

We just got back this morning from our family adventure to visit Big D and Lady Di in the D.R.

We had a great time and it was so fun spending time with Mom and Dad. They are doing great but do miss the family. Alex and Drew had the chance to receive their blessings from Patriarch Harris.

I tried to capture a tour of their Casa on video for those of you who may not make it down to see them. Plus its just nice to see them in their environment. Enjoy! More pictures to follow, and of course the classic Big D and Lady Di tales that will live on, and only grow bigger through the years!
