Girl cousin Weekend!

SO glad we could all get together this weekend! This is what we did:

Friday night- Micah got into Provo and the girls (minus Jackie who was on a friggin' hot date!) stayed up to all hours of the night catching up and girl talkin'!

Saturday morning- Becca and Rachel went up to SLC early to visit a memorial. Jackie, Micah, Jenna met up with B&R later in Murray at H&M. Spent the rest of the afternoon shopping and of course, more girl talk!

Saturday night- pizza and a movie in Becca and Rachel's hotel room. Woot Woot! And of course more girl talk!

Love you girls and thanks for a great weekend! We need to do this more often, but with EVERYONE next time! Yes? Yes.

Stop laughing!

Ok why did we squish Rachel's face?!

Perfection

I'm MOVING!!!

Hello Dear Family!

I wasn't sure how to share this news with everyone and thought that our awesome blog (that hasn't been used since September I might add *cough cough* get some Christmas pictures up people!) was probably the best way to tell you all that I'm moving to my very own apartment! I'm really excited and let's be real a bit nervous about it all, but it has happened so quickly that I know I've been led by the Lord.

Sooooo ... My new address will be:

Ms. Rachel Hay (so formal :)
4701 14th Street Apt #12203
Plano, TX 75074

My phone number will be the same: 214.856.9761

With Love,
Ms. Independence

Gotta Be Scholar

This is for all you BYU alumni. Hilarious the creative things BYU students come up with. If I'm correct, this song was completely written and video produced by BYU students. Hilarious. Enjoy

Labor Day Weekend in Auburn

Dallan's Football game. Go Colfax!

Dallan: are you really taking a picture of me?

The beautiful Grammy

Tom Cruise? Top Gun?

Mike and Melodee's beautiful new pool

Isn't LeAnne gorgeous?

Terry: "Mike, you're wearing a kilt." Mike: "It's a lavalava... don't be a hater."

Terry: "I'm just saying it looks a lot like a skirt"

Love these brothers

Kentucky Adventures

So here's a look at our latest adventures in Kentucky. Yesterday we went to Uncle Phillip's garden, picked 50lbs of cucumbers and canned away!
The Crew...
First you wash...

Then you dry...



Stuff, stuff, stuff...(Aunt Margie stopped in to help!)


The finished product...ta-da! Bread and butter pickles!And where were the men through all this...

Doing what we all do best! = )

Family videos

I've posted two family videos that Uncle Robert made for me. I'm not seeing any Mike/Melodee kids in here so I'm guessing they weren't married yet??? Anyways, it makes me miss all of you guys! What videos do you guys have of our various get-togethers that we've had over the years? Wanna post them too?

You're ug-ul-ee to me!

Hilarious! Why we hadn't already thought to put this video on the blog sure beats me. Now Rachel's finished her undergrad and serving a mission and I'm an old married woman with arthritis! hahahaha

Special attention to Becca's beautiful landings and Uncle Terry's "in-style" shorts. :) Thanks to Uncle Robert for the videography! We need to have another one of these priceless reunions!
