Aunt Terri's funeral

On July 25th Aunt Terri was hit by a pickup while running and passed away. It's still so unbelievable to us. Because her family lives in St. George we didn't see her as often as some of our other family members but when we did we always had fun. She was such a crazy, spunky lady! We were happy that when we were down in St. George in May for Emmitt's birth that we were able to spend some time with her. We went down for the funeral and were able to have a nice time visiting with so much family.

On the way there Jaina lost her first tooth. It had been loose for a while and she really didn't like it and was upset about loosing a tooth. We had made it to about Brigham City before when she said, I think I lost my tooth. We looked and she was right, it was gone. I asked her if she new where it was but she didn't. After a little while she told us that she thought it may be on the floor of the car. She said that when she was eating her chicken nuggets as we left Rexburg that she thought she had bit into something in it so she through it on the floor. We figured that must have been her tooth.

When we got to Uncle David's that night we looked for it but it was really dark and we couldn't find anything. Luckily the next day when it was light we found it right under her seat. She's decided to not give this one to the tooth fairy. She wants to keep her first one. (It is currently lost somewhere in her room. :) )

This is kind-of how we all felt that day. Hot, tired and a little sad.


Amree had fun dancing around with Addison. They were pretty cute together.

Although some of the family was missing this is a whole lot of it.

Terri's favorite flowers were sunflowers and daisies. There were so many beautiful flowers.

Rebecca and Jared took us up to Dixie Rock that overlooks St. George. We took pictures from both sides. The city was really pretty from up there and the red mountains are always fun for us to see.
