Our Mansfield Thiots

Fathers day was such a fun day.  We loved having our Mansfield Thiots there with us.  Our crepe Myrtles have never looked better.  They made a fun back drop for family pictures.  Thanks Jamie!

We learned the trick of Harper being nearly as tall as her sisters.  Tippy Toes, just like her dad used to do

I loved Brooklyn and Kinsley Kate together under the myrtles.  Love these two. 

Our Medford Granges

Tatia and Jake loaded up their van on June 17th and headed to Utah for the Grange Family Reunion.

There first stop was on Temple Square where Jake and Tatia were married just 15 short years ago. 

What a wonderful family of 8 they have grown into. 

Bear Park was always a fun place to go when my kids were small and Tatia wanted to show her kids how fun it was.  Simon thought it should be called "teddy bear" park.  I like that too. 

These kids loved climbing on the granite bear. 

Gracie loved the swings

I love the whole Grange family together with those gorgous red cliffs in St. Georg at their reunion. 

These are the 11 Grange Grands.  Penny is the oldest and she is holding the youngest.  I love them all lined up in a row. 

Now they look like movie stars.  I love that we share six of those grands with Jeff and Jackie! 

A meet up with Skyler and Shannon was fun at the BYU Creamery.  Everyone loves icecream and everyone loved Shannon! 

Our Folsom Thiots

Our Orem Thiots

Adelaide shared her birthday with Fathers Day.  Pierce said he was more than happy to give the whole day to Adelaide to celebrate.  He took his family to Benihana's to celebrate turning 10!

They stopped at Aunt Lani's on the way and met up with Tatia and her family.  Such fun to be together. 

Jackson took a fun Summer Sewing class.  Laurie shared these fun photos with me and I loved seeing his projects.  Great work Jackson.  I loved how all your projects were Green, you very favorite color! 

This pillow case is amazing! 

I love how this one really hit your funny bone.  You are such a fun seven year old!  

Lani's birthday party was another celebration that Tatia and Pierce got to meet up.  Those two are great friends.

Pierce's birthday is tomorrow, and he has a commercial shoot in NEW YORK CITY!  I love that ALF is going to be in the commercial.  What a fun a memorable birthday that will be.  Have so much fun Orem Thiots!

Our Upstairs Thiots

I loved the photos of Skyler and Elinor at fathers day.  So fun! 

Elinor picked a gorgeous Magnolia flower off of our tree and put it in my lantern.  It smells so good.  She has the funnest ideas!  Thanks Elie

We made a batch of Sister Smith's cake mix cookies and mailed some to Sister Smith.  She was transfered to Gilmer and we miss her bunches.  I hope she liked the cookies. 

Here is a close up of Elie's magnolias.  So pretty

We got to help with the City of Plano Service project of filling back packs for kids in need.  We loved buying some school supplys to share.  

Here are my two favorite box trolls.  I had no idea how much fun someone can have with a box and a fun dad! 

Elinor helped us make her favorite homemade pepporoni pizzas for dinner.  Oh we all love those. 

I love that after the movie, Sky and Elie had a picnic with her trolley quilt.  She loves that blankey I made her when she was a baby. 

I love the heart Skyler and Elinor's hand can make together.  I love her beautiful green eyes. 

We Plano Thiots

We had a fun group join us for Dick's famous Dad-kabobs.  He makes them soooooo good. 

We had a new friend join us and we loved getting to know him better.  He's Dick's ministering companion.  We were hoping he could meet our friend Kumar who got sick and couldn't come.  Another time soon.  

We've been blessed with two new families who have moved into our primary.  We are thrilled.  We got to make a little welcoming kit.  Taco 'bout Awesome!  We loved meeting our  new families

And taking them a taste of Texas.  Truly Chips and Salsa are GOOD! 

Our Max Whipple Hafen turned 8 this week and was baptized.  We got to visit him on his birthday.  It's so fun to be in primary. 

Skyler was my hero and made the program for his baptism and personalized the gift for him.  

We went to a lesson with the missionaries and treated them to some of Henry's Ice Cream afterwards.  They loved it and after I had paid, I left my wallet.  Oh it's so fun to get old and forgetful.  I went back first thing in the morning and was soooooooooooo happy that it was still there and intact.  My miracle of the week.  It was a great week.  Sure love ya'll, Robynn
