hey there! we've had lots of visitors within the last couple of weeks. oh how we love visitors! first, jourdan's family came. Ronald, April, Spencer and Meilin. we did lots of fun things! we went to a native american museum. so interesting, i love museums. i think spencer and meilin got a little bored, haha, but it was fun for me to spend time with jourdan's sweet family. we also went to the phoenix zoo, ate a delicious dinner at Bobby Q's, swam and had a fun bbq at our apartment. jourdan's grandma and grandpa came down with his aunt shauna and cousin stacey, so we had a big get together with them and bryant and taryn's family too. so fun to see them all! i don't know what was wrong with me, i didn't take very many pictures! i've got to get better at that. we were so sad that Justine, Mitchell, and the Wilkins trio couldn't make it down. you were dearly missed. hopefully next time!

| stuffing our faces at bobby q's. it was very delicious! |
a few days later some of my family came down too. mom, g&g littleford and my aunt julie came to see alex's last ballet performance for this season. they were only here for a short time but it was a grand time for sure. they got pretty lost trying to get to our apartment from the airport but it all turned out. we all (except for jourdan, the asians needed him) headed down to tucson and enjoyed watching alex in the ballet. she is a beautiful dancer and we are all so proud of her. love that girl!
my grandpa always loves to fiddle with my phone. i was amazed to see this photo that HE had taken of himself. haha love that man so much...
we ate dinner at the deer valley airport restaurant, where jourdan works. it was really cool! the food was pretty delicious. and it was fun to watch all the airplanes land and take off.

 |
| cute. |
 |
| oh how i LOVE this pretty lady! |
 |
| how cute are they? my grandma became a celebrity with that shirt! lots of people commented on it. she's a huge fan. ;) |
also, wasn't conference amazing?! i love the gospel of Jesus Christ. so much. i love
president uchtdorf's talk about hope and light. really though, every single talk was incredible. i couldn't possibly pick a favorite. i am grateful for the light that Christ is in my life. the Atonement is real. His love is what brings color into my life and i hope that we can all remember that His is way is the ONLY way to true joy and peace. let us all be a little more kind, a little more faith driven and a little more hopeful. amen. :)
anywho, we are always sad to see family and loved ones leave but we love having them here and appreciate them so much! :)
jourdan and i were lucky enough (thanks to our tax return) to go to a sigur ros show last week. they are an amazing band from iceland. it. was. INCREDIBLE. seriously, we were both absolutely blown away.
 |
| just waiting for sigur ros to bring happiness to our ears. so excited! also, that is a piece of licorice in jourdan's mouth. just to clear up any confusion. |
 |
we splurged and tried out a sushi place before the show. it's always a
risk trying out new sushi. this place was alright. we will continue our
sushi journey though. but, they did bring out our first roll, which was on
fire! it was pretty neat.

we love you all so very much! stay good. xo
