Justin's Coming Home

Hi Everyone! Hope you are all doing great! Hey just wanted to let you know that Justin should be home on the 20th. Everyone who wants to go to the airport is invited to welcome him home. I won't know the time for a few more days but will let you all know when I find out. Can't wait to see him! Heather will have her baby in four more days on the 14th. We are so excited to get that little guy here. Sydney is enjoying her job at Target and is such a sweetie. She is doing so good. Spencer is working hard at work and at the gym. Sam is getting so trunkie as the missionaries say. He is so ready to come home. He should be home the second or third week of June. YEAH!!!! I am just keeping myself busy and counting down the days when we will all be together again. Love to you all, Shawna BE HAPPY!

Home again

Wow, why does time have to fly so fast? I had a blast in Belgium. We saw so many things, ate great, walked and walked, took pics and enjoyed the family tons. I have been so homesick for my family this last few months. It's been great to see Amanda and the girls, Jen and the Tran Clan. I really enjoyed the Eiffel Tower, Disneyland, Paris, the cobblestone streets, the chocolate factories-we truly don't have real chocolate here. I loved the history, the beautiful old buildings and cathedrals, the waffles, the kabobs, shopping, color, the flowers. We saw Waterloo, I rode a scooter on the canal of Mons, it was fun. My grandkids shocked me, they have grown so much. It was a fantastic break, I did miss Al though and we had some not great experiences with pick pockets.
Can't wait for sisters weekend. Love you all, Vic

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday to my sweet daughter, Contessa!!! She turns 21 tomorrow, she is now legal to do all the wild things, but I know she has left that in past, so the only wild thing she will be doing is chasing around a 9month old!! I am so proud of Contessa and what a good mommy she is, it is fun to watch her grow and learn homemaking skills. I am proud that she has taken after her mother and loves a clean house and a decorated one!! We love you so much and hope you have a beautiful day, wish we could be there. Love ya tons, Mom and Dad A memory-When Contessa was a little girl, around three months I was asked if she could be a baby model for Z.C.M.I. a huge department store like Macey's, I would of loved to have her do it, but I didn't have transportation back then. She was and is a beautiful daughter of God.

Thanks Becky and Paul for stopping in to visit Cash and me, I was needing a uplift that day, I have been feeling a little overwhelmed with life and all the decisions it gives us, so thanks for the visit. We had a blast on our vacation, it was fun to watch Lorin, he was like a little kid at Christmas time, Kenners did awesome, she loved to just watch everything. We loved just hang'in together, talking and making lots of memories. We stopped in Mona to see the Bandley family, but somebody was out shopping, we saw your cute little house though and it is way cute! We were very sad to hear about Troy, we just saw him in August, life is so wierd that way, I just want you all to know how much we love you and we think of you all often, I would give anything to just have a family party with everyone there, wouldn't that be awesome!! We love you all even though we can't see you, hang in there and be happy!! The Carrillo's

Just a little love note

Hi nieces and nephews, I was just thinking about family and how fragile life is. My cousin died today-another heart attack and tragedy in the family. I want all of you to know how much I love my family including all the in-laws. You all hold special place in my heart...just wanted you to know.
Have a great week Love, Aunt Vic
