June has come and gone...a very busy month for our family! All of our children were able to come home for Jacob's wedding, along with most of their families. It was a chaotic, but fun week, with preparations for the wedding, lots of food prep, building a wedding cake, some social events, and lots of visiting and hanging out! What a joy it was for Brent and I as parents to see all of our children in the temple together! It was a joyous day as Jacob Von, married his sweetheart, Janelle Marie.
As they emerged from the Logan Temple...our first look at the newlyweds!
The Wright's, some of our best friends...and now we're related!
Our forever family...Grandparents, kids, grandkids...it's what it's all about!

Jaron was able to come with 3 of his children, Emmy, Carter, and Ashton, but we didn't get an individual picture with them. Heather and Lily were unable to come, and their family was not complete, but we were so happy that some of them were here. It was great to see them!
Our Simonson family! Love them all!!
Which brings us to July, and our only birthday of the month
(until later this month, maybe!)
(until later this month, maybe!)
Tanessa Lynn, our youngest daughter, will turn 26 on July 15th!
She is a joy and blessing in our lives, is a wonderful mother to Addisyn and Brielle, is an awesome wife to Jake, and is presently expecting our 11th grandchild...
a baby boy, due around the end of this month!
It was quite a sacrifice for her to come to Idaho for the wedding this late in her pregnancy, and also very uncomfortable for her, too, but there was nothing that could stop her from being here! She is so fun, and extremely talented, and we love her so much! Happy Birthday Tessy!
The wedding cake that Tess made for the reception, along with help from Jaron and Trisha!
