And we're back!

**WARNING: Super Long Post**

While driving to Bear Lake for my family reunion, Theron called me and told me that his Grandma had had some kind of seizure and they had found two large masses in her brain. The doctors didn't give her very much time, so once I got back to California we made preparations to drive back to Idaho. I didn't get to see her while I was in Rexburg because she lives in St. George, otherwise we would have just sent Theron home for a visit. Instead, we packed everything up and drove back on August 2nd. Grandma Jackie is doing much better than anyone expected, so we hung out with her for a few days and then Theron flew back to Sacramento to work for two more weeks. Here are a few pics from all the time in between and since:

Logan and I tried to pack in a little more sunshine before we left
Sorry if you don't think my kid is funny, but he cracks me up. This is where he played while I packed.
On our last day in California we went out to lunch with my cousin Jessica Luci & her husband Steven. They just moved to Sacramento from Maryland a month ago.
Logan loves being home! He was so happy the first couple days, just running around the house with his stepstool making sure all the lights still work.
Logan's newest skill: raising one eyebrow.

Theron's Uncle Drake moved his wedding from the 29th in Salt Lake to the 8th in Idaho Falls to make sure his mother could be there. It worked out for us to be there, too!
Congrats Drake & Lijuan!
Logan was crabby most of the afternoon, but I caught a couple of smiles
After Theron left, Logan and I decided to go with my family to Salt Lake for the week. Logan drove most of the way.
The rest of the family went to Lagoon while I stayed with Logan and Laila. He wasn't too sure about sharing his fish crackers, but she is one determined baby.

Even though Theron was only here for a week, it was good to get settle back into our house and he was able to start lining things up for a job when he gets home. Since he has not been working in the medical field and he graduated over a year ago he is required to shadow another nurse for 80 hours before getting his license. That should only take him a couple of weeks and then hopefully he'll get hired on here at Madison. Wish us luck!

Love to all!
