Gabriel had a Happy Birthday party on Sunday.

He wanted an elephant cake

(that is what this is supposed to be in case you can't tell).

We can't believe that he is so big!!

3 years old!

Man meets lawn

Aaah the exhilaration of mowing your own lawn! Annie clipped this picture of me enjoying my first mow. We borrowed the lawnmower from our Mormon Aggie neighbors, thats right we moved in next to Mormons who also happened to attend Utah State......Hello!!!!!

Anyway the move went well, and we are in!!! It is so much fun. Come see us!

Jake and Annie

Adam is very excited because he lost his first tooth today! It had been lose for just a little while.

Adam says that Gabriel helped him lose it. They were playing tug-of-war with a blanket--Adam pulled with his teeth. We are glad it is out because the adult tooth had already surfaced behind it.

The Moss boys had a great time today. Rebekah saw the rather innocent beginnings, went to get the camera and came back to...

summer portrait

we took these for mom on her birthday. i got my friend to take them and then i quickly posted them so mom could get them on her birthday. they are called summer portraits because it was so stinkin hot. ( its been 105 her with 100% humidity)

birthday hike

birthday for mom/grandma

I want to thank all of you for the cards, e-mails, phone calls and pictures. Wow , I love you all!!! I wanted to go on a hike for my birthday. So Dad and Daniel, Deb and Andrew all came with me on a hike to Lake Katherine. We went up little Cottonwood Canyon, to the Lake and packed in our cooked foil dinners. Yum! We saw 3 moose and several deer. It was beautiful and I loved it. I am out of shape so it was hard getting there, but once we were there it was so worth it. Wish that all of you could have been there with me. Deb and Andrew bought a cheese cake to top off the evening. Here are some pictures to enjoy.

Buon Complianno! Happy Birthday Grandma!

We can bring different furniture in, different colors... and best of all, Annie can tear down any wall she wants in this environment. Check out google sketch up.... its a blast!!!
