Happy Birthday Ben

I think this was when Walker was blessed. It doesn't seem that many years ago does it.

Discovering things or fishing?

Of course this isn't your style of bike, but at least it isn't pink and doesn't have flowers painted on it!

In Mesa several years ago at Thanksgiving with Katie and 2 cute boys.

I am not sure where this is. It doesn't look like your fireplace. But again with cute Katie and cute boys!

This was at the Family Reunion in Heber when we first came home from Spain.

Having fun playing in the water! I can tell Walker is loving it!

This is in front of the Tenerife opera house when you came to visit us there.

Another shot from the Canaries. Remember that restaurant? Somebody had sardines. Was it you or was it Laurie?

Another shot in the Canaries. So glad you got to come a visit us there. Hope you will come and see us here soon. Have a Happy Birthday.

Belated Birthday Wishes for Becky and Charlie

I think this was when you visited O'pee that one summer? Hope you enjoyed the lobster.

Baby photo of the blue eyed boy.

I think this was at Patio of Fire.

Cute baby Charlie.

Happy Baby Charlie

Another baby photo of Charlie, I need some more recent pictures, but they are all cute.

Glamour Shots! You two haven't changed much over the years. Still as beautiful as ever.

Great photo of Becky and Richard in front of our home in Phoenix. Love the paisley tie !

Becky and Mom in front of some beautiful flowering trees. I think this was in Scotland. I loved all the old castles and interesting things we saw that summer.

You had some great dance costumes!

Cute smile. Remember the Ocean Pacific brand?

Great dance moves and makeup, on the parquet floor.

This must have been in Hawaii, you look great in leis in front of the pineapple plants.

Another cute dance outfit and curly hair. Hope Becky and Charlie had great birthdays!

Another Favorite Costa Rican Treat

Lemon flavored salted peanuts! One of the other missionary couples told us they had tried the ones they found in the open market in Alajuela so we looked for them and found them there and in the open market in Cartago. Here peanuts are called manis and are usually just salted or BBQ flavor. But these lemon flavored ones are really addicting.

Laurie's New Favorite Costa Rican Drink

Same brand as the Pink Grapefruit that I like but this is Mango. It is calorie free and is delicious. The only problem is that it is hard to find. We have only found it at one little Chinese grocery. I am wondering if the manufacturer has stopped making it. Too bad because it is really good. We can get mango drinks in other brands, but haven't found another one that is calorie free. There are lots of interesting fruit drink mixes here. Some of the fruits are ones you probably have never heard of. I'll post about some of them another time.

Very refreshing!

Happy Birthday Laurie

What a fun summer trip that was! In front of a fancy fountain in Europe somewhere. Do any of you remember exactly where we were when this picture was taken?

Same summer. Can't remember exactly where we were for this picture either. Just know we were having fun.

I think this was at Brian's Patio of Fire several summers ago.

Along the northern California Coast. Lots of great memories for us here.

What a memorable Christmas that was!

Cutting the cake!

Hard at work!

Dressed for a ball. Remember those yellow curtains?

Fancy New Year's Party.

We did some dancing in those days.

Cameron Falls, Waterton, one of our favorite places.

Probably the biggest fish you ever caught! Thanks, Todd.

Island of Lanzarote. Glad I got to be in most of your pictures with you. Have a Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Nancy

Happy Birthday Nancy! The years have gone by way too fast.

This one is dated, you must be two years old.

We all look a little younger here, don't we? Must have been exercising in our sweat suits.

On a trip to Canada when you must have been a little over 3 years old, of course in front of the Cardston Temple.

Remember the orange chairs? You guys all look so cute in your fancy clothes and pretty smiles.

And the green fireplace?

Now that was a fun trip. We were all enjoying the fruit drinks and the luau food.

Remember those cute Lanz nightgowns? Sorry, Steve, I don't know the brand name of your bathrobe. Loved that red pig from Mexico.

Happy Birthday! Eat a piece of cake for us and have a great day!
