I Can Only Imagine

My cute mom and dad started their three week vacation by staying at our house before they went to St. George, Vegas, Palo Alto, CA, and San Diego. It was mom's birthday, and dad's was just two days before. We all enjoyed their stay so much and it's so great to see how awesome and better my mom is each time we see them! I had the opportunity of going to the St. George parade of homes with my mom and dad. It was a beautiful day! The sun was shining and it just felt so good to be with my parents and enjoy looking at these beautiful homes. It was like happy medicine for me. Our favorite was the most expensive of course. It only cost $3.5 mill - a real bargain for 15,000 sq. ft.! I mean really, who on earth can afford these monsters. It was incredible inside and out. Here's just a few of my favorite spots.



The backyard - complete with pool, slide, patio, dressing rooms, gourmet kitchen (bbq), and this amazing cave with hot tubs and a flat screen T.V.! Why not! The basement took my breath away. It was huge! You can't even see the raquetball court, putting green, etc. This house was made for party people like the Augers!Another view of the enormous basement.
I loved this kitchen!
Our good friends the Reynolds and Augers from South Weber surprised us by stopping in on their way home from St. George! It was so good to see these great people!
Thanks for coming! We love you guys!

We are leaving tomorrow for San Diego! We are so excited! We will be staying with my parents in their timeshare right on the beach! My brother Jonathan is going to ride down with us. He will be good entertainment for the kids. I'm excited to spend this time with him before he goes on his mission in May. He's going to Toronto Canada! All my siblings are coming home the weekend we get back to go through the temple with him. It will sure be a special day for all of and especially for my mom and dad. This is their dream come true to have everyone of the kids be in the temple together. We are so blessed! I owe it all to having such great parents!

Oh my gosh! That house is ridiculous. Those homeshows are awesome. Hope the drive and trip to San Diego go well. Wish we could go too!

Isn't it sad those rich people don't just throw some money my way? I am glad you got to go out with your parents, that sounds like a lot of fun. Your mom looks great! Hope you have an awesome vacation.
