Alexa's first day of kindergarten!

Alexa was so excited for kindergarten that she woke up extra early. She even woke up her brother and sister so they could join in on the excitement. Alexa didn't want to eat breakfast because all she wanted to do was get dressed and do her hair, so she could go to school. However, Mom made sure she ate some food and told her it would give her energy to have a great first day.

Mom was left in the dust as Tyler ( the ring leader), Sierra(cousin), & Alexa ran up the street to school!

Mom made Alexa pose for a picture outside of the school...but she just wanted to get to her class.

Now Alexa has a smile on her face. Her she is going into her classroom for the first day!

This is Alexa's kindergarten teacher. Her name is Mrs. Wood. She is very nice and Alexa liked her a lot.

Kylie waited and waited for Alexa to get out of school. Kylie missed her big sis. She ran up and gave Alexa a big hug and told her that she missed her and said "love you, sis." It was too cute. Alexa had a great first day!!

I had to show off my beautiful baby. Nate is such a hunk..he gave me these purple roses! He has been thoughtful for each of our children's births. When we had Tyler he gave me red roses, for Alexa he gave me pink roses, and for Kylie he gave me yellow roses. For each birth he has given me a different color. I just love him!

Yes, I did put make-up on.. too bad all the rest of the pictures had already been taken.

Introducing the newest arrival to our family...JACEY GRAF!

On Saturday, August 9th we welcomed our newest addition to our family. Jacey Graf was born at 4:22 am. She weighed 7 lbs. 6 oz. She is 20 inches long. Tyler, Alexa, & Kylie just adore her. The girls won't stop asking to hold her. We can't blame them, she is so much fun to hold and watch. Enjoy the pics...

Kyie just can't help herself to Jacey!

24th of July

We all had fun at the parade. There wasn't much candy though...but we still had fun. After the parade, we went up Cedar Canyon to let the kids play in the creek. It was HOT outside, but we managed to have a blast!

Lisa and Trey were in the parade...they hooked us up with lots of candy!

The girls were picking the best rocks out of Dad's hands to skip in the water.

Moving Day-June 24, 2008

We packed the Budget truck on a Tuesday morning. Some young men from the ward were supposed to come to help us...but they forgot. Nate and Aunt Tiff pretty much loaded the entire truck themselves. The missionaries came and helped for the last stuff. We spent the rest of the day cleaning the apartment. Luckily, the Relief Society came and helped clean for 2 1/2 hours. They did the entire kitchen and bathroom. What lifesavers! Thank you Northridge Ward Relief Society. Here are a few pics of the move.

Loading the truck. Alisha had bins for just about everything!

Kylie was having fun playing in the moving boxes!

Nate and Tiff loading the truck.

Kylie wanted to be in the truck the entire time!

Lexi walking Stitch the dog and playing with friends, one last time.

San Francisco, California (June 23,2008)

We had so much fun going to San Francisco one last time before moving back to Utah. Aunt Tiffanie was with us. She was helping us pack and move. She was such a life saver for Alisha. It was around 100 degrees in Sacramento, so we expected San Francisco to be about 80 degrees. When we got there however...it was 58 degrees and we were not prepared for it...

The Golden Gate Bridge.

Fisherman's Wharf. It smells really stinky with all the fresh fish being sold.

This is Ghirardelli Square. This is where Ghirardelli chocolates were first made. We even got free samples! YUM!

San Francisco Bay! It was quite cold...if you can't tell. We all bought jackets while we were there in San Francisco. We were quite touristy! We couldn't get Tyler to stay out of the water. He didn't care what the temperature was.

This is everyone at the end of the famous Pier 39. You can see Alcatraz in the background.
