Lins Cousins


WOW I am a funky lookin thing. That's me on top and my sister, Holly, on the left and cousins Laura and Kresta. Why are our skirts up so high??!!

Varsity for Amanda Leyla-Leigh!


Congrats to Amanda for making the Varsity soccer team as a sophomore!

Sisters!!!











The girls were able to watch big sister Chey play soccer this weekend and they loved it. You all know what I think of "soccer moms" (sorry Holly) but we did have fun. One of the absurd moms started screaming, "Play the game!" and 5 seconds later JJ screams, "Play the Game!" So funny how they listen to everything around them. Chey's friend Merrick and I started cracking up.

The Bear Mill with the 3 Bears!












I took the cousins to the Bear Mill which is a knock-off of Build a Bear and they had a Blast. JJ and Makeila picked the same bears and Meika and Makeila picked the same outfits for their bears.



Congratulations Tyrone and Jessica Harward!









































































The girls and I drove up to St. George, Utah to celebrate the wedding in Lani Luau style. The food was sooooooooo good and we had a great time. JJ threw a bit of a fit over apple juice so I didn't get the pictures I wanted but here are a few.

Man Tag!


Mark Tyler D.O.B. 3/24/1962

How long have you been married?

6 1/2 years


How long did you date?

Don't know if you can call it dating but we got married 15 months after we met.


How old is he? 46


Who eats more sweets? Oh me for sure!


Who said I love you first?

Hmmm...I wanna say me but he was pretty mushy back then.


Who is taller?

That's me for sure! It doesn't bother me though cuz he's such "large man."


Who can sing the best? I'm not great but he's terrible so I'll say me.


Who is smarter? So easy-he is and I love it! I'm more street smart!


Who pays the bills? I do. I pay every bill and open every piece of mail!


Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? Meika does-hee hee.


Who mows the lawn? No lawn


Who cooks dinner? Not many dinners cooked here but Mark does more than me.


Who drives? I do of course. I'm a Lawrence wife!


Who is first to admit when they are wrong? Mark does every single time-well he's wrong more!


Who kissed who first? I jumped him so that'll be ME.


Who asked who out first? I don't remember. He made the first gesture by showing up at the dealership I worked at with a grande vanilla latte from Starbucks in hand. One of my friends came to my office and told me there was a really cute guy looking for me with coffee and I knew who it was-I died. I knew I would marry Mark when I saw him the very first time.


Who wears the pants? I do. Mark wears board shorts!
