About Me

John and I have been married for 9 years and live in Katy, Texas in our first home. Johnny is seven years old now and is a blast to be around. Olivia is four and is a little busy bee. We had Drew in April and have loved having a baby in our home again. John works at his father's company, G&A Partners, and just received his MBA from the University of Texas. As for me, I'm playing mommy all day and just loving life!

A Provo Vacay

Drew was blessed the day after the wedding (Saturday) with all of the Allen and Gammon family there. It was so special. Pictures to come.

After the blessing we went shopping at the new City Center mall in Salt Lake-amazing! We checked out of the hotel after lunch and drove up the canyon for some fresh air with the Gammon family. Wow, Utah sure is gorgeous. Too bad I didn't appreciate it when I lived there for four years!

 And Becca is the best baby holder. I wish she lived closer!
 This is probably my all-time favorite picture. Papa John handed Johnny his hot dog-it was a little well done!

 Liv and Maddy. She likes big hair and she can not lie.
 Johnny and Kyan
 Johnny was bugging me all day to go pretend hunting with him-where is Sean when I need him!?


 S'mores
 Baby's first time in the mountains
 After the mountains we went down to Provo to stay with Ryan and Jess and Asher for the rest of the week! They were such wonderful hosts. We stayed in their rented apartment just down the street from Jess' parent's house. We would sleep there and head over for breakfast and play all day in their gorgeous back yard and pool.
 Me and my Asher. Goodness, i love him so much!
 He wasn't feeling too hot while we were there but was such a trooper and was still tons of fun!
 Look at that view. I could have stayed all summer.
 Daddy let me lay out for a bit and brought Drew to me when he was ready to eat
 One thing I love about new borns is that once you get them asleep, you can lay them just about anywhere!
 Liv loved playing baby in the little play house down stairs
 I can't get enough of his little walk or his fuzzy curls in the back!
 Sherrie Boxx and boys and Linley and Thomas came to swim one day. Family is so fun!

 Happy Asher with a sucker from Sherrie

 Hi Tommy boy!
 Johnny and Owen hit off in just a few minutes
 Ryan is the best uncle!
 We had to take the kids home one afternoon and let them have some down time. They were soooo tired!
 Playing on the BYU track field after some shaved ice.
 He always looks so miserable. I promise he's actually a pretty darn good baby.

 Poor Asher was traumatized by Livy. She wants to be a mom so bad but no one will let her!

 My one and only picture with Jess. We had so much fun together! Yummy food all day long, shaved ice, hanging out at her house, shopping, playing at the pool. We hit every one of our must-eats and then some-Cafe Rio, Happy Sumo, Malawi's, Marley's, Beto's, Zupa's, Red Iguana and shave ice twice. That was just in four days (Sunday doesn't count). It was heaven and I'm so glad we went to Provo to see them! I might have to make Provo a permanent vacation every summer.

 He is such a doll
 Fun with Daddy!



 I love seeing my brothers be such cute dads

Whoops!

 First, second and third grandchildren:)
Thank you Ryan and Jess for being such wonderful hosts and such amazing aunt and uncle to my kids. We had so much fun and love you so much!
