Mr. Style himself! This boy loves fashion, palm trees, photography, and warm sunny climates. He was in his element in  Nevada and of course St.George!

My little beauty!

This little Reagan is such a beautiful girl. She and Ava are both fun, sassy girls.

Our little model!!

Perfect picture of my two youngest boys! They get along so good-best of buds most of the time!

Jake and Ava's favorite tree. They LOVE palm trees and would have them everywhere in our yard if they could.

Don's been out of town with work lately. He had to go to Saudi Arabia for a couple weeks and then to France. Jill has been trying to get the Henderson house ready for her workers to do some updating. So, I loaded up the kids and went to help. Oh, I have to tell you what my amazing husband did for us first though.  Jill sent a text that if we could bring some screwdrivers, hammers, etc it would be great because theirs were in storage. Dennis said, "Oh no, you HAVE to have power tools". I was leaving the next morning and all his tools were at job sites and the office. Well, that man got up at 4:30 while the rest of us were sound asleep. When I woke up at 6:00 there he was with all the tools all organized on the table. He showed me how to use the drills and charge the batteries. He showed me how to take off the baseboards with a trowel and crow bar and hammer. He is such a good man! He not only tells me that he loves me, he shows me each and every day with all the little things that show me he is thinking of me and wants to make my life easier. I sure do love him!
Okay, back to the events at hand. We drove to Henderson Tuesday morning. We left at 10:00 and with construction and stops we got there at about 3:00 Nevada time (4:00 Utah time). Jill had just one working screw driver but had managed to take off quite a few cabinet doors by the time we got there. Then Brad and I used the drills and it was finished in just a short time. Then we got busy taking off all of the baseboards upstairs and down (in the main living areas). This took a long time but we got most of them off. We worked for about 3 and a half hours and then drove back to St. George to stay at G&G Ralph's house.
The kids swam and played all the next day. They sure have a good time together! We spent one more night there and then came back home. Jill and the kids spent a night here with us on Thursday because she had a wedding to attend at the Payson Temple Friday. It was fun to spend time with them before they move in to their new house in Henderson! We probably won't see them but a couple times a year now.  :(

That man is a good man! So nice of you to help Jill, I am sure you two had lots of laughs and the kids probably loved spending time together. Love all the pics of the kids. I am with Jake, I love palm trees too!
