East Canyon


Sierra Jane turned 18 this year! She chose to celebrate with water, jet skis, and mountain air. We had it scheduled before Teesh got sick and had to come home from the Philippines but with a little strategic planning we all headed to the mountains to celebrate our little social butterfly.......

 My life on repeat. Ada is so similar to Sierra. It is fun to show Sierra what she was like at the younger ages. Sierra usually smiles and then responds, "I know, I see myself in her a lot".


We arrived at camp and set up our tents. We enjoyed some relaxation and rest


 Gonna have so much fun out on the water!!!!!

 We rented paddle boards, jet skis, and tubes

 Testing the water out....


 From Bria's face I think you can gather it is a bit chilly still ha ha. Oh, how I love that girl of mine and her expressions



 



 



 Sierra invited some friends up for the day. Brett and Gannon, two of her best friends from high school. It sure was a hoot watching them all out in the water, especially on the jet skis.



 




 

 Brett was the expert and was showing us all how to run the jet ski



 Happy Happy Birthday Sierra dear. We wish you many many many more happy days ahead. You are such a joy in our family. You know how to add spice in everyday living. I learn from you always. I love you so much and hope you never change your happy disposition. Way to go after your dreams and live life to the fullest. Love you my Magera

Returned with Honor

Pam, Nichole, Brooklyn, Hollie, Clark, Grandma Hansen, Avery, Samantha, and of course our family was all at the airport! Teesh's plane was suppose to arrive at 9:40PM and it was closer to 10;30 before we saw her sweet smiling face.





 Malia was at EFY with Avery and Samantha. Hollie was kind enough to bring the girls from Utah County to the airport so Malia would not miss the return. What would I do with awesome sisters. This has been such a stressful time and to know I can turn to them has been amazing. Love my family!


 Of Course Teesh is one of the last ones off the plane. She was helping the lady in the wheelchair until an employee helped her out. Get over here girl, I need a hug!




 Grandma Hansen patiently waiting her hug time

 All my girls together again!

 Uncle Troy was one of the first to greet the newly arrived Sister Hansen. Perks for working at airport. Troy informed us to not be too loud, that the employees get tried of hearing loud homecomings. Sorry Troybee I will be as loud as I want. My girl is home!


 Well done thou good and faithful servant. We are so proud of the service you render in the Philippines and please know all the sacrifices you performed did not go unnoticed. 
Welcome Home Sister Hansen
