July continues to be a busy month, filled wih celebration and family time!
Dan's birthday was on the 9th. We celebrated by going to a local swimming pool.
He and his wife, Nicole, are here from Albuquerque to find a home in the Salt Lake area so she can start her job at the Riverton Hospital. How thoughtful of him to be here so we could celebrate!
Dan started out big. He was 10 lbs 9 oz and 23 inches long when he was born.
He continued to grow, topping out at 6'8" (This joke never gets old)
Dan is one of the favorite uncles! The kids adore him!
Do you love the cake pan from the 70s?
He's a very talented artist, working with airbrush on Harleys and other vehicles and paintbrush on canvas.
The details are amazing!
An artist needs a new camera for his birthday!
Happy Birthday Dan! We love you!
(Do you like the way I kept your face covered?)
The day after the birthday celebration, The Divine Miss Em got baptized! It was a wonderful day with family, food, and fun!
Four generations:
Mom, Em, Grandma (me) and Great Grandma (my mom)
Once again, Camille came through on the picture taking!
We're proud of you, Emily Mae!

Very talented son you have there! The details in those designs are amazing!
I would like an airbrushed design of Brad Pitt's jeans on my car please. I can tell Dan is just the guy for the job because the jeans will look so realistic! Then you know what I could say every time I get in the car, right? I'll leave it at that.
Oh Connie, what a wonderful weekend! Dan is very handsome and very talented! I love is art work! Wow!
Miss Emily is so beautiful and what an awesome dress. Love your 4 generation picture. I've got two photo shoots coming up and both are 4 generations, I can't wait.
That last picture of her is so perfectly beautiful!
Happy Birthday Dan! (You forgot to mention his awesome blogging skills)!!!
And congratulations to Miss Em on her big day.
Mis M is a doll...Dan is tall..wow! And a 10 pounder..om my gosh! His work in stunning! Looks like such fun you are all having! :D

How great to have them closer to home!
Dan is a cute one.
You certainly do have lenghty chill'ens!

Great stuff and thumbs up to any post that includes Bigfoot.
What talented and BIG children you have!! ;-) Looks like you're having a ball!! That's what Summer is all about!!
Enjoy!! :-)
Yes I loved the 70's cake pan.
The photo of Dan naping and the "spoon with me" set up was hysterical.
Emily is a doll....cutest freckles.
Wow.. Dan is quite the artist!
There is some GREAT new homes in my neighborhood.. and I am close to Riverton Hospital! --just sayin...
You are quite the woman!
Love the 4 generation picture...
What a happy month you have had!!
It's such a happy time when kid scome home and I can't imagine the JOY you must feel to have your son and daughter-in-law moving closer to you! What a fun family you have.
I'm always jealous of four generation photos as my grandparents died when I was young and so my kids will never get to have one of the kind of photos taken. That is such a blessing for you and your grandkids.
ADORABLE grand-daughter with freckles and she looks gorgeous in her white dress. She is the same age as my little Ethan who was baptized in April and wouldn't you know it, his face is covered in those adorable freckles as well.
Camille is such a talented photographer and captured the bottom photo just perfectly.
Wishing you another FUN filled week of summer vacation!! Enjoy!
(hopefully sometime this summer, I will actually get my photos gone through and have some posts of our summer fun we have been having).
Love the artwork....and it sounds like everyone in your family LOVES the artist :)
Congratulations to Miss Em! What a milestone in your life !!
Having a great summer and making memories....that's what it's all about !
It looks like you are having an exciting summer. Hope it keeps up, with a few days of relaxation in there somewhere.
Are you proud of me?
Happy birthday to Dan! And that Miss Em is gorgeous.
Wow!! He's amazing! Happy belated birthday to him! And congratulations to Emily Mae, what a beautiful young lady!
Looks like you're having a wonderful summer!!
You are having a great July! The fun doesn't end for you!!
Bless your 10 lb. heart though!! REALLY...10 lb. baby? It's over now, and you're enjoying a fun birthday. His art is amazing!! SERIOUSLY good stuff.

I love Em's jewelry selection. Did you notice the hair pulled behind the ears? Had to show off the recent earrings! She's a cutie!
How wonderful to spend so much time with family.
OK, the pan looks familiar, I think my mom had one. I love those pans, they are cute.
Happy birthday to Dan. I love all of the artwork I own of his.
Miss Em, just puts a smile on my face.
Hey! My younger brother also weighed 10 pounds 9 ounces at birth! he was so big, my older brothers and I made up a song about him! It started out like this:
"The giant baby, the giant baby, OOOH! I'm scared of him..."
Love all the pictures, especially the baptism ones!
It was so nice of you to visit my silly blog and leave me a comment! Thanks! :)
Congratulations to Emily. Seeing grandchildren get baptized is always so wonderful.
