This was a page that we took out in our senior yearbook dedicated to all of us and our memories together.

This is my 8th grade graduation picture. I am on the bottom row, 2nd from the left. My mom made that dress, just as she made all of my formal dresses, including my wedding dress.

Bella reminds Courtney, my sister, and me a lot of Courtney. Courtney did this side-by-side comparison.

This is my childhood home in Phoenix. It was at the end of a cul-de-sac on a huge lot. We moved there the summer I turned 5, and moved away after I graduated high school, the summer I turned 18. I loved this house - especially all the memories it holds. I bawled the day I drove away in my 1977 Honda Civic and waved goodbye to my parents and younger siblings as they drove off to Snowflake. To prove how much I dislike change, the first home that Rob and I owned was this EXACT model in Tempe.

This was the Haag's house, right next door. They had Matt and Mike, who was my age. We had so much fun with them growing up. I still tell my kids stories about all of us neighborhood kids.

This is Christmas of 2009. My dear sisters-in-law, Lora and Pam.

This is a picture of my brother, Nathan, in action playing football at ASU. He received all kinds of accolades and was even drafted by the Cardinals. He was/is an unbelievable athlete and I was always so proud to be his sister.
