What's happened with the Jenkins? -- Blue Island
So I thought I would give a quick update on our rapidly transitioning lives. Since moving from Mexico a little over a year ago (June '08) we have lived at my parents for the summer then spent 12 weeks in downtown Miami, then home to Utah again where we lived as moochers off our parent's for another "quick 12 weeks" that turned out to be SIX MONTHS (it's okay with me if we don't relive that,) then to New Jersey for a month and a half for Jon's first rotation (which is where you find all the posts on Boston and NYC visits).

Familia Jenkins
Lagoon Day
Daddy's princess on her pony.
Gingerbread House
The kids put this together in Bear Lake for the Jenkins Annual Snowmobile trip. Our poor kids...when we unloaded the car of our suitcases Lauren asked,"Do we live HERE now?"
Where's the fire?
Jon's dad tried to change the fire alarm but with it linked to the security system the fire department was automatically contacted. So after five minutes of obnoxiously loud alarms going off the truck showed up. Oops
Date with Daddy!
Jon took Lauren to Hollywood Connection for some one on one time together. It was a hit. :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HANDSOME
September 17th 1978
2/27/08 Lately L. has been insisting that I call her Cinderella. Sometimes I can hear her upstairs call for CINDERELLA. in a mean "step sister" tone, then in a sweet voice will answer, "I'm coming." She failed to pick up her toys when I asked, so I tried her new name and it worked wonders.
2/29/08 So L. is watching her old favorite and after Dory explains to Marlon that memory loss runs in her family, Lauren says, "It runs in my family too, Dory."
Anna two months
Lunch on the "patio"
Lauren has a new fascination with cokewatches. What's a cokewatch you ask? It's Lauren's word for Cockroach! :)

The Trike
L is lounging while watching our tennis match...this is the trike that ate me.
Story came to play
These three happy girls just finished spinning in Daddy's chair. What kid doesn't LOVE that? When Story's mom came to pick her up she gave me the door prize she'd won. It was a full hour massage at a spa in town. It was HEAVENLY! Thanks Brooke.
L"s Nursery Teacher and friend Lesley
Sunday doesn't come fast enough for L. to go with her teacher to Nursery. She will scout her out in S.M. and wave to her the rest of the meeting. She loves her.

I can't believe all the places you've lived with your little family. What fun adventures, always something new.
It reminds me of Logan...:)
Beautiful houses! I love your family picture in the header! I'm glad you did the recap of where you've lived. It was hard to keep track ;).
no wonder you love it there! These pics are a lot better than the google map shots i was looking at. I think of you every day and i promise one of these next few days will result in an actual phone call. i am off to help at alli's school book fair. love you and love the posts!
Cool pictures! I love the old houses!! Hope you can get settled in soon!
Some of the pictures remind of Logan, but oh what a pretty place. Even if it's far away, it's YOUR home. That's says a lot.
