Avery's Baby Blessing

4 Generations! Notice Avery's blessing dress my mom made it. Shes made all of my babies blessing dresses.
My cute parents!
Elder and Sister Wilson it's good to have them home for a bit!
What a cute family I have (I'm not prejudice at all!)
Aaron and his girls!
We blessed Baby Avery this past Sunday. Aaron's parents had to come home for a few weeks from their mission so we took advantage of them being here and blessed the wee one.

Summer Fun!

Aaron & his brothers went to Alaska this summer.

My favorite place in the world. Lake Powell. Carrying on the family tradition my 3 year old learned how to water ski this week. Her older sister already knows how.

I can't believe that school is going to start in less than a week. We have been having lots of fun this summer playing, vacationing, swimming. Oh, did I say we I mean Aaron and the girls have been having lots of fun, as for me I have been on baby duty since she was born but I have enjoyed my time spent with her. I'm just posting some random pictures of our summer outings.

Death Becomes Me?

I have a subscription to the newspaper for one reason only not for the sports, local, or national news but for the obituaries. Why? I ask myself am I so obsessed with them. Maybe it's because I'm looking for the perfect obituary. But is their really one perfect obituary? Each obituary are distinct in their own right but are so similar in so many ways. For once I would like to read about a person not liking something or someone. I feel that obituaries wraps up someones life in a few short paragraphs and that it should be something memorable.

Which brings me to thinking about what I want my own obituary to say. For instance, I love to waterski but on several conditions first,I have to be skiing early in the morning in Lake Powell second, the water has to be smooth as glass or it's not worth my time and lastly, Aaron, my dad, brother, and Uncle need to be in the boat in order for me to say that it doesn't get better than this.

I also enjoy 4 wheeling but only in the Uintah's on a non-holiday weekend (the dust is unbearable when there are tons of people) sitting at my favorite lakes (lily and lym) eating snacks with Aaron and my girls.

There is also nothing better than a ice cold Dr. Pepper, a Bon Jovi song while driving alone in car, the original Star Wars, a hug from my girls, a good piece of prime rib from the Timbermine. I could go on and on with this one but also think it would be fun to list things I didn't like like repetitive noises, I can't stand tapping, I hate Cherry 7-up and it always ends up at my parents house as a beverage of choice. I don't like to clean especially my stove top too much elbow grease for me.

Anyway, call me crazy that I am so obsessed with the obituaries I thought it would be fun to see if anyone else has had the same or similar thoughts so if so let me know.
