Life just gets better.. Captions/Words cannot express our joy so I will let the pictures say what I cannot...
We are grateful for 6 beautiful children!
We love you Michael!
ps. Ashley, we miss you!!! See you soon!! (And Mel you did awesome! And the end of July just like you said from Day 1. Thank you.. I LOVE You!)
Family times in July!
Dad and the boys on Sunday at Aspen Grove...
At our cabin on the 4th. What a treat to sit around a fire in July and enjoy some smores. An even better treat to watch the fireworks from our backyard! 
Girls turn to go fishing... NO fish, but we had sooo much fun..
Hours of fun on the new b-ball court.. Who knew Uncle Dan was an animal on the court?? Especially when we had the hoop at 7ft.. whooaahh!
For those of you that say Wayne has a big mouth... Here is proof!! (Hey, he took the photo!)
Nothing better than Grandma's pasta on a Sunday afternoon. (Even better when she delivers it from her cabin to ours!!) Mmmmm...
Grandma's place in Heber on the 5th.. Great ribs and some great fireworks.. Much much better fireworks than ShowLow. A treat to see two shows, though...
A good chunk of our reunion group at the Manti Cemetery across from the Manti Temple. Many LeSueur relatives are buried here.
Ashley and her LeSueur cousins around Funk's lake (Palasaids State Park) outside of Manti. Our ancestor Daniel B. Funk made this lake from scratch at the request of Brigham Young.. Great place for a picnic!
Grandpa and his favorite son-n-law ;-) on our balcony at Aspen grove. 
Ever seen a pregnant gal do pottery?? It wasn't pretty..the bowl that is...
A new addition this year.. a rock-climbing wall.. Maybe next year, Haley :-)
Dad & his little girl at the family dance.. (a great substitute for mom)
Grandpa enjoyed visiting with cousin Dave LeSueur throughout the week at Aspen Grove. We enjoyed our distant LeSueur cousins too.
Haley & Joey teamed up on this nice catch out of the Aspen Grove pond.. Biggest one in the pond says Dad... Priceless girl face Haley!!!
Haley defended her title and took home 1st place for the 2nd yr in a row! Whoohoo.. Joey & Katie held their own too.. We eat a lot of watermelon in our home.. Practice makes perfect!
We always love the speakers at Aspen Grove.. Professors Steven Harper and Michael Cheney from BYU were a real treat! Our relationships and testimonies were strengthened throughout the week!
Dad loves pictures in birth order....
Hawk Woman... aka Katie.... 
Scenery like this always makes leaving Aspen Grove tough.. (nice postcard shot Wayne)
What a blessing to have Grandma & Grandpa with us all week.. We are so grateful for them...
We are grateful for our family (and extended family) and for so much quality family time this summer!
Now it's baby time.... Stay Tuned...
Happy 4th Birthday to my sweet Jason! We had a fun day today. It doesn't take much to make this kid happy... Just his new green shoes, Indiana Jones whip, and his Hulk smashing hands. 
We love you Jason! You are one of a kind! You put a smile on everyone's face that knows you.
We just finished up another fun year of swim team. Joey did so good. He worked so hard and would push himslef. He loved every second of it. He got the trophy for MOST IMPROVED BOY.
Dad was their number 1 fan. He was the best, I only survived 1 meet. He took them to the next 4 without me. These meets are 3 hours in the heat. What a Man!
All their hard work payed off. They all got medals in the Championships!!
Another year down. Maybe next year Jason will be in this picture. GOOD JOB KIDS
Happy 14th Anniversary to my best friend and Sweet wife today!! (Where has all the time gone & who are those younger lookin kids in these photos??) It has truly been the best time of my life. We have come so far and grown so close.... You are a wonderful wife and a wonderful mother! I wouldn't change a thing! My life has been blessed in so many ways and it all starts with you!! I Love U!! Wayne
Our kids have spent so much time together that they are becoming the best of friends. Jason has gotten so attached to Haley. It is so sweet to watch them. She is a wonderful big sister and always willing to help or play with him. Last night he wanted to sleep with her, Ashley let them use her full size bed so they wouldn't be so crowded. We are enjoying every minute left of him being our baby... (and he is loving all the attention!) I am sad to have him get bigger. He has been such a sweet little guy. I know when Michael is born Jason will seem so big. There isn't anything I like better than when my kids love each other and enjoy being together.
On Sunday we escaped from our world in Mesa. We got out of the heat, left our summer activities, no work for Wayne, got away from friends, left our worries behind ,and went to the mountains. I love having Wayne and my kids all to myself. We have had so much family time. The girls have been reading, learning to sew, playing cards, and sleeping in. My boys have been enjoying play outside in the cool weather and being with dad. I really needed the rest and quiet time. As I am getting closer to having my baby, I am getting very uncomfortable. The Dr. told me to slow down so I don't have this baby too soon. It has been so nice to have Wayne slow down. He is a very busy guy. It has been so great to have his full attention. He has been going for walks in the morning, playing with the kids, taking naps, reading and working in the yard. My family gave me a great birthday day yesterday. They always know just what to do for me. Just a few more days and back to the real world.
