Picture of the Week: August 12-18

Water skiing for the first time... Rock climbing with the cousins... Swinging in the backyard... playing guitar with Uncle Robert... Babies first boating trip on Utah lake... Alec's first ride on a tractor... Seeing Daddy again after 4 weeks of vacation... so many different events to show for picture of the week, but I think this one is the winner. Drum roll please....

Hugs
Maybe not the most artistic photo, but by far the most meaningful from the week. This last week my siblings and I all banded together to help my dad pick out the ultimate 28th Anniversary gift for my Moma. It was crazy trying to keep the secret from her and pick just the right one for her. It was so exciting for me to go with my dad when he bought her MacBook at the BYU bookstore. They threw in all sorts of cool extras. We took all the "loot" over to gift wrap and let them make it all beautiful and presentable. Then we took it home. It was so fun watching my dad get all excited about giving my mom her present and it was so sweet seeing her so surprised and excited. She cried and said "Do I deserve this?" This is coming from the woman who has sacrificed sooo much for her family for the past 28 years. Of course she deserves it! Unfortunately for me, my batteries died when I tried to take a picture of the first hug (Mom's tears running down her face and all), but I did get this one. I love watching my parents be sweet to each other. What are some of your favorite memories of your parents?
