Hey Familia

Hi this is Ashley and I have finally got to contribute to this blog. First of all I'd like to say Joe if you're reading this I miss you and I love you be happy. Second Tanner if you are reading this I know you probably haven't been away for a long time but I miss you anyway. School is awesome and my teacher's are so cool. I love you all. See ya'll.

Not funny....Blood....

Another random blog from the Applegate household....

Charlie Bit Me....

The kids and I have been watching these two videos and have loved them. Thought we'd share...

Joe is gone...

Yesterday, Joe got into his car and drove away -- again -- to Las Cruces. I always hate to say goodbye to my kids, but when they drive away so far and in the complete opposite direction of where I am accustomed to taking my vacations -- it is twice as hard.

He called last night and sounded so lonely. His girl friend (notice the space -- it kind of changes the whole meaning) Morgan has said she doesn't want to get back together, so he is embarking on a whole new life -- complete with new acquaintances that HE will have to make. He has said that he will got to the Single's ward there and probably FHE, so I am putting it in Heavenly Father's hands and letting Him watch over my boy.

Write and call home Jo-Jo.




This was a cake from Tanner's 18th birthday. He is finally a major and no longer a minor....
