Ping Pong Takes Over

We turned our pool table into a ping pong table and have increased the family unity! A night doesn't go by that someone is not defending "King of the Table". John, Gideon and Maverick seem to be the top three players but the rest of us are trying.

This action shot was taken during the Christmas 2008 Holidays when Mercedes, Gideon, Chanel

were visiting.

John and Joy get Sealed in the Temple!

On June 28, 2008 we were sealed for time and all eternity in the Newport Beach Temple! We had tons of friends and family members there to help us celebrate. Included in this candid photo is Mert and Kate Mitchell, John and Carolyn Neal, Rachel and Craig Workinger, Tyler Workinger, Doug and Debbie Carter, Tricia Seguine, Cherlyn Nielson, Barbara Chytraus, and of course the 7 of us!

This day was so incredibly special for us - to share it with so many people who have been there to supports us made it even better. Also that day Zachary was sealed to John and I. I wanted this day for so long and the spirit that was there in the temple that day testified even stronger to me that Families are Forever!

Maui April 2008

Maui, Hawaii is our family favorite vacation place! John and I try to make it there once a year but hadn't been there for 2 years due to our relocation to Florida! We joined our dear friends Aimee and Abizar Vakharia at our time share for a week of rest, relaxation and golf! John and I had an extra getaway weekend to Lanai as well where we love the Manele Bay Resort...

Maui will always be a special place for us since this is where we got married. I love spending time here with John and such great friends - it is always special and renewing for all of us!
