Cambria Comes Back to AZ

So, Cam came back from Utah and in the few weeks she had been finishing up there she had been doing much contemplating and came to the decision that Jason was not meant to be part of her future. It was a hard decision, but she feels at peace with it. We will always have good memories of the time he spent with us.

I am very proud of her for listening to the Spirit especially when inspiration came as a stuper of thought rather than a yes or no. I am also grateful for the friendship she developed with Chelsie while she was in Utah. Chelsie and her family were so good to her while she was there. Thanx Chels and Fam!!

Okay, so after Rothlisberger Reunion, (Memorial Day weekend) we got home and I couldn't find my favorite Wranglers. I thought maybe they got thrown away with the garbage when we were leaving camp...I drove everyone crazy looking for them in the trailer, house, truck, dirty clothes, clean clothes, calling people etc. After hours and hours of searching...finally I gave up. BUT, I kept wondering where they could have gone.
Needless to say 2 1/2 months later...
when we were packing for the ward camp out we popped up the trailer and there they were...in the bag on the counter squished between the beds...YEAH YEAH YEAH man was I ever doing the HAPPY (pants)DANCE!!(actually I still am) The only bad thing was...they were tighter than I remembered them being!! OOPS!
Saying goodbye to Kayla....
a sad day,
Me Kayla Marianne
but we somehow put smiles on our faces...even tho I look horrible!





We miss you!!


Take care of your self and your family.
