August happenings...

Where did August go? Luckily, we were able

to do some fun things in August...

I ran my first race ever ...

Owen traveled and traveled and traveled some more...

We visited family in Utah...

...and got to know new relatives!

Sent my parents off on their LDS medical mission

..and after everything we decided to

makeover Owen's hair!

Fun with family!

Recently we got to spend time with my brother, Omar,

and his family...we enjoyed our time together

and we were so happy to see all of them! Thanks for coming, guys!

Here are some of the highlights...

First off, I need to say thank you,

to my sister-in-law, Andrea,

for this AweSomE craft idea...

and a big Thanks to my sister, CJ,

It is a beautiful way to add art and color!
