This last week or so has been pretty busy. Take a look at some of the fun things, and not so fun things that have been happening in our family.
Teancum has gotten lots of practice in riding his "new" bike (I love garage sales!)
We took my three favorite bums to the park early on Father's Day. I love seeing Ryan interacting with his boys. They have so much fun together, he really is a wonderful father. 
Jacob was cute and wanted to cuddle with me.
Teancum's Favorite thing at the park were these bars he could slide down.
And Jacob loved going down the slide
My family spent the night on the way to Provo for the funeral. Jacob was thrilled to see his Grandpa
The boys were great during the 5 hour drive to Provo, we stopped at fed the ducks at BYU before the funeral to let the boys get some energy out before subjecting them to having to be quiet and still.
Teancum felt like he needed to herd all the sleeping ducks into the pond.
The service was beautiful. I learned more about my Grandma then I knew. My dad gave the Eulogy and my Uncles Lance and Dal spoke too. Here they are by the casket. Besides learning more about my Grandma another plus about atending the funeral was that I was able to see a lot of my cousins that I hadn't seen in a long while: Derek, Christi, Tami, Leanne, Aryn, Courtney, and Autumn to name a few. I was also able to see Jolena and her parents. Thank you, Ryan for getting the day off, driving us up for the funeral and watching the kids then entire time we were in Provo so that I could concentrate too, then driving us back the same day; I appreciate your love and support more than words can say, it meant the world to be able to attend my Grandma's funeral.

Last friday I found out my Grandma Black passed away. I don't think I can describe the mix of emotions I've gone through this last week. I have always felt a special bond with my Grandma because I was named after her, my middle name Nicol (prounounced nickle) is her maiden name, a name she was very proud of. I grew even closer to her while I was at BYU and able to visit her regularly to talk, and play. She had the best laugh; a big and jolly cackle that was so infectious. She was generous and loving and intelligent. We'll miss her greatly but I'm grateful to know she is happy with her 6 siblings that preceded her, her daughter, and her parents and that she is probably busy teaching...she loved to teach.
