Lagoon 06'

The tag line that Lagoon uses is "Its What Fun Is" and they couldn't be more correct. I LOVE Lagoon. The Gregory's have a long standing tradition of going to Lagoon. Grandpa Gregory worked there in the 1930's. I am so glad that we got to start out own family tradition of going to Lagoon. It was a first for Jude and he will have many Lagoon days in his future. And if you couldn't tell he was having a blast.

LeGrande E. Gregory (Dan)

Trevan's grandfather passed away last Wednesday the 9th of August. The funeral was on Monday the 14th and everyone was there expect for Cam. Trevan thinks its weird but I actually like the funeral part of funerals. I love that you can hear all about the persons life and the wonderful lives that they led. Grandpa Gregory was a truly wonderful man and he leaves a wonderful legacy here on earth. I was lucky enough to get to know him and when he met Jude it was love at first sight. Trevan loves his grandfather very much and is very sad that he is gone. Trevan's grandmother Barbara died 3 years ago from complications of Alzheimer's disease and since then all Dan wanted to do was be with her. He adored his sweetheart and I am sure they are having a sweet reunion in the afterlife with each other and their baby boy Michael Dan who died in infancy. To read his obituary please click here.

Happy Birthday Trevan

We had a birthday party for Trevan's 25th birthday at my parents house and it was so much fun. Both of our families were there and there was great food, fantastic Costco cake, and an intense football game.

I love my husband and I am so glad he was born.

the 24th of july & the salt lake bees

one of the best part of being a gregory is the 24th of july tradition of going to the bee's baseball games. in fact it is so much fun that this year my family bought their own tickets and joined us at the game. terri bought jude a very cool baseball outfit and he looked way too cute for his own good. the 24th of july is a utah holiday, where we celebrate our statehood. the best part of it is at the end of the game there is an amazing firework show. we had so much fun and ate to our hearts content...love baseball game food.

more time with the greg's

This summer has been pretty fun. We have spent a lot of time with our families and laughed a lot. Landon has been playing baseball since the spring and since Trevan is obsessed with baseball (even little league) and I love just hanging out we have been going to a lot of his games. He made All-Stars and made it to the state tournament. Landon and Trevan are a lot a like. They both have these really obsessive personalties. They get so obsessed with something and its all they do and read about. Trevan has been on baseball for about 2 years now but he sometimes gets sidetracked with tennis or road biking. So now Landon is off baseball and onto golf and he eats, sleeps, and lives the golfers life. Don't worry though because soccer will start soon and then he will be onto that. I love having a little brother, and Jude quite likes Lando himself. (sorry trev)

Jude hasn't quite got the pincher reflex yet, but he sure can cross his fingers.

The other night we were eating at out new favorite spot Jason's Deli and Brennan was feeding Jude an ice cream cone. Little did he know that about 20 minutes earlier I was putting olives on Jude's fingers and Jude was popping them in his mouth and gumming them to pieces. Jude doesn't always swallow his food, he is like his Grandpa Mike and savors the food for a few hours in his cheeks. Brennan went down to take a lick of the cone and was shocked and disgusted to find a half eaten olive lodged in the ice cream.

Support Systems

It is in time like these that you realize the importance of support systems. I am so grateful to live close so to mine. Last night it was like Jude's birth all over again, he had visitors all night. We all sat around and were entertained by Judakins. Jude is so loved and last night he was so happy to have people around, he knew he was the center of attention. I have received so many calls and messages in regards to Jude's well being and it is so comforting. I do not know what we would do without our support system. They make times like these seem so much easier.

Uncle Cam goes to Sacramento

Cam finally went to Sacramento last week and even though it is suggested that you don't go see your missionary off at the airport Trevan, Jude, Rog, and I went and saw Cammy off. He seemed good but a little disoriented. OH by the way, Cam is not speaking Cambodian anymore, the mission president decided that it wasn't needed in Sacramento at this time. I think Cam was a little relieved.

Silly Uncle Cam goes on a mission.....

Jude's Uncle Cammy got called to serve a mission in Sacramento, California. He went to the MTC on March 8th and we were all there to see him off. Word from Cam is that he is doing well but says the food is bland. He also says we needn't worry because he is showing all the "pussies" what is up in basketball, totally appropriate.

As mentioned above Cam loves basketball and recently took up buying jerseys. Cam claims if he was 4 inches taller and had bigger hands he himself would be a professional basketball player. The night he left his brothers all put jersey's on in remembrance of "Camnutz" (and yes Trevan does look the same age as Landon).
