Marinn and I are back from a whirlwind trip to Maine. My beloved Nana finally passed after a 20 year plus battle with Parkinson's. While I will miss this SASSY, competitive, compassionate lady, I am mostly relieved for her. She courageously lived with this disease without complaining about it. Now she is dancing her way through heaven pain free. I am so grateful to everyone who made this last minute trip possible...Luke this especially means you! Kim took one for the team and was super dad to Brady while I was gone. It had been quite a number of years since all of my brothers and I were able to get together and it was so fun.
Marinn was able to hang out with our newest nephew Andrew(the happiest, chill baby ever!).
And The grandparents had their fill of the grand babies!

I am so sorry for your loss. I wish I would have known and could have helped! love you.
Cutest little nephew and neice!
I've been thinking about you guys lately and how grateful I was to be able to serve around such amazing, loving, and genuine people during the mission. Some of my best memories are from serving in the Oakton/Fairfax area, even though that was one of the hardest areas I served in. By the way "Elder" Jackson, I still think you owe me a Slurpee from beating you at a half-court shootout. =p Someday when my family and I are Utah, I'll give you a chance to go double or nothing.
I searched everywhere to contact you guys and this is the only place I found you.
How are you guys? What are you up to these days? You have a beautiful family.
Anyways, send me an email. I'd love to hear from you guys.

I am sad to hear about your Nana Ash. But it is a relief to know that she is pain free now. So fun to go home and spend time with your family! And I love Marinn's black dress. so cute! Kara is sooo excited to meet her future BYU roommate! Speaking of BYU, I recently had a random memory.. do you remember.."Erika....you're a girl!" (Brock--homecoming)....
your little girl has your dimples and smile. she's so cute. sorry to hear about your loss.... but it sounds like it was her time.
