Utah May 2011

Emily & Jessica & I went to Utah in May this year. We got bumped off our first flight. At least we were still in Rochester. We had to go back home and fly out the next day. I was so upset, but it all ended up working out. The girls were a little confused after being at the airport for 2 hrs & getting on the plane & everything. I was confused, I can't imagine how they felt. Anyway.....

we had fun playing in the sun

We had so much fun & miss everyone SO much. Wish we were closer so we could get together more!!



Jessica turned 2 years old!

Jessica turned 2 on August 1st. This is an older picture, but I like that her and her doll have matching outfits. Isn't she so cute? I think the pics from her birthday are on Craig's phone, so I'll need to download them & post them later. We love our 'messy' Jessie!!

We had these pictures taken at the Sacred Grove just a few minutes from our home. We think they came out pretty good. Jessica has a confused look on her face. Emily was miss Photogenic. She wanted her picture taken everywhere we went.

Merry Christmas!!

To those of you who I don't have addresses for, here's our picture from our Christmas card. It was just taken at my in-laws house. We'll do a professional pic later. Hey, we're all in it & smiling!! That's a plus! Jessica kept saying 'cheese', so we got all these pics with her cheesy smile. So, this was the best one.

We wish you all a Merry Christmas!! We hope that you have a happy day & remember the REAL meaning of Christmas. Jesus Christ was born on this earth to be an example to us of how we should live. His example is how I want to live my life. He died for us so that we could all live again with Him someday. I am so grateful for His sacrifice for me, my family & those around me. I love this time of year that we can celebrate His life & what he did for all of us.

Merry Christmas!!

We love you,

The Record Family

Civil War Re-enactment, Mumford, NY

We went to see a Civil War Re-enactment  this summer. It was SO hot that day. I think it was 98 with 98% humidity. It was miserable!! We were going to leave early, but we decided instead to sit in the car with the A/C on for a few minutes to cool off. It was VERY hot, oh, did I already say that? =)

Wounded Soldiers

 Water girls

 The Whole Family. The soldiers gave them the coats to wear. I was thinking 'are you crazy?, it's 100 degrees outside & you want them to wear your wool coat?' But the kids were excited about it. Go figure. I'm a mom, I'm boring. LOL

 Did I mention how hot it was?

 Craig & Lisa outside the schoolhouse, it was too hot inside!

 Camp

 The Band-

I guess that's what they were called

 Wounded soldier

 LOUD Cannons-Did I mention we were sitting right by these?

Yeah, we were. I had to plug Jessica's ears everytime they fired them.

 Soldiers

 Matt by the cornstalks

He was so tired & hot by this point.

Everyone was ready to head to grandmas to jump in the pool after this adventure. What a hot day! Did I tell you it was hot? LOL

Hot Air Balloon

One night we saw a hot air balloon really low to the trees in our backyard. To make a long story short, they asked permission to land in our backyard. Here are some pics of the action & packing the balloon up.

Crazy boys
