L-R: Whitney, Bennet, Tyler, Ashley, Mark, Me, Lyndsie, Brian, Matt (July 15th, 2007)

Happy Birthday Scooter!

We got to see so many new, old and pregnant cousins at Scott's birthday dinner at BJ's. I'm not sure if getting to see the babies or eating a pazookie was better? We had a lot of fun, hope you had a good birthday Scott!!

Happy 4th of July!

My favorite Messick family tradition is spending the week of Independence Day at a beach house on Beach Road in Capistrano Beach, CA. Its so close to home but seems so far away. Its always fun to escape the world for a week, enjoy the company, breathe in the tremendous view and play some games. Don't worry Christy, someday you'll beat me at "take two" Scrabble, just keep practicing :) At least you can know that a LerVold will ALWAYS win the poker games! posted by: GG (game girl)

Our new cousin

Madison Alaine White. About 3 months old now and we just love when we get to visit. Isn't she adorable? Full head of hair on that little girl :)

Proud Sister

Congratulations Graduate!! YEAH Kellie for graduating from High School. Thanks for letting me be a part of your big day. You are so beautiful, I love you!

Welcome Back Matt!!

Mark and I just got back from a visit to El Paso. We saw his little brother Matt for the first time in 2 years. He has been in Nuku'alofa Tonga serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It was not your typical mission, he spent most of his days searching for food. He had so many amazing stories about eating bugs, fishing, boat rides, climbing palm trees for coconuts and of course sharing the gospel of Christ. We are glad to have him home!!

Our New Place

Check it out!! This place is so fun. Its newly renovated condos that used to be apartments. We like it. We get 2 pools and work out room. I guess we'll have to start exercising :)

Mark's Job

Mark has been working for a law firm in Phoenix for the past week. He was hired as a summer associate until August. Hence, the move to Arizona. He is so excited to be one of three new associates for the summer. He gets his own schedule, office and even an assigned secretary. I think we are starting to feel like this law school thing is really worth it.

Welcome to Arizona!!

It seems as though AZ has given us a big fat welcome with 100 degree weather to slap us in the face. It's hard to imagine that a month ago we were shoveling our way through the snow to get to our cars. CRAZY!! It is definitely hot here, but we are blessed with air conditioning and a pool :) This place is going to take some getting used to and its only gonna get hotter from here.
