Park City Family Reunion


Lizzy really enjoyed playing chase with her 2nd cousin Jacob Fresh while we were visiting Olympic Park.

The 34 of us Jensens during the Family Reunion at Olympic Park. Dave's parents arranged a private tour to take us around the park. It was really so interesting-- it was one of our favorite parts of the reunion. The whole trip was so much fun. Park City was the perfect vacation for a family our size--there was something for everyone to do. Dave's parents got condos next to each other at the Park City Resort for all of us, so we had lots of time to spend together and bond.

Life in June 2010


On June 3, 2010 Ashley's brother Dane got married to Brenna Orgill. They were married in Boston and all of us went out to his wedding.


Dane and Brenna were married in the LDS Boston temple, where Dane is serving as a temple worker. The temple is located in Belmont, MA, where Brenna is from.

Lizzy loves to pet our kitty and watch her tail wiggle.


We were also able to get away for 2 days to Daniel Summit for a BYU conference.


Aunt Claire hosted a family dinner in honor of Dane and Brenna who were honeymooning in Utah and Idaho.

Celebrating Our Baby Girls Birthdays in May


Lizzy turned 2 on May 18th

Rachel got her first tooth at 12 months old! It was a top one, which was kind of a surprise-- since we have been expecting her bottom teeth any day for the last 5 months!


Nathan graduated from Miss Julie's preschool. He is now headed to BYU Preschool this summer and fall/winter. Daniel will also be going there thus summer to their post-kindergarten program.


We had such weird cold weather this Spring, that this old tree next door, blossomed for the first time in it's 20 year existence. It was beautiful!


Daniel has become quite the outdoorsman. He loves to hike, climb trees, run around....



Daniel graduated from kindergarten. He had such a wonderful teacher this year in Mrs. Mackay. We will miss her!


We had a big joint family birthday party for Lizzy and Rachel in May at the girls favorite park nearby. We were so worried that it would be crowded over Memorial day weekend, but since it was only 50 degrees we were the only ones there!



Dave with his parents (Grandma Jensen & Paka)



Ashley took the boys to ride Thomas the Train in Heber. Nathan is VERY into trains so it was an activity of a lifetime for him. It was so much fun. We went up there with Ashley's friend Emily and her boys.



Nathan loved his temporary Thomas the Train tatoo so much, he wouldn't let us wash it off for 2 weeks.
