The boys go to Vegas

Miles saw this and called it what it is: a castle and we wondered how he learned what a castle is?


Miles did not want his picture taken with Mike. Sorry Mike! Miles can be such a rascal.

Here they are enjoying the Billagio's beautiful flower garden.

I really should be havinig James do this post since he was there to experience everything. Basically this is a day in Las Vegas James had with Miles and his brother Mike. I had a pretty peaceful day at home with the twins. Not having Miles to entertain made it peaceful...of course the twins were as demanding as usual.

Miles loves to hold Lincoln and Julia! Here he is holding Julia - she looks happy too!

And below, Daddy is helping Miles hold Lincoln

Lincoln and Julia got to be held the whole afternoon. I'm sure they loved every minute of it because unfortunately, We can't hold them as much as we would like! It was so wonderful to have so many friends and family come from all over and many at great sacrifice of time and money to be with us on the special occasion. We are so grateful to all of them and really appreciate their love and support.

Some pictues of a few friends that came to our house after the blessing. I hate that I didn't get pictures of each family/individual that came!! Missing are the Spencers who couldn't stay long, the Houghton's, Layrno's, James' brother Mike and also Ben Bochway who surprized us and flew in from Salt Lake Sunday morning! We're so lucky to have everyone!!

Blessing outfits

July 5, 2009 was a very special day. James had the privilege of blessing Lincoln and Julia at our ward building here in Palmdale. Here are the twins in their special clothes that I loved shopping for. Lincoln is wearing the little tuxedo Miles wore. They were so cute and very good during their blessings, Lincoln fussed a little but neither one cried. Good job babies!

Stephen & Karen came to the blessing! They are our good friends from Lehi, UT. Miles loved playing with Tasha and it was the first time I got to see Calista, their 4 month old daughter. We're so glad they came.

more family arrive

Lee with Lincoln, Marilyn with Julia.

Grandma Deanna holding Lincoln.

My mom came for the babies blessings and so did my brother Lee and his wife Marilyn. It was so great to have them here and to have them meet the twins! We loved their visit. James' brother Michael also came from Philadelphia ... why don't I have pictures of him holding the twins?!!

Holding Hands!

My friend Cara has twins and she told me they loved to hold hands so when I found my twins doing it too, I was so excited!! Isn't it just precious?!
