Farewell to Nighthawk

Our home has sold after 11 years of memories...It's been a great home to raise our kids and be part of a fun community. As Dan would say, "We've been transferred". Like we are on a mission, ha ha! On to a new adventure, new ward, new stake, we will see what life has in store for us. I can tell you this--the home is where your family is, that's it. WE are even closer to the Newport Temple. I can sneak in a session more often.

You can email me for our new address and our phone is the same. jonicorbin@hotmail.com
Thanks for all you love and support through the years, you are a part of us!

Brenan's 8th Grade Promotion

Last Day of 8th Grade. Yikes, High School here we come...no more Jr. High for the Corbin Family. Another door closed. I think that's a good thing!
This is Will and Eric, friends since Kindergarten. I was lucky to get these. Brenan was not in the picture taking mode. Is he ever? It's a teenage thing, bummer!
I couldn't even get a picture of Brenan with his parents! Sad, we aren't cool enough for him-so here's what we look like, he'll probably care in a few years!

Prop 8 Upheld!!! Hoorah...

Prop 8 Upheld

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The California Supreme Court has upheld a voter-approved ban on same-sex marriage, but it also decided that the estimated 18,000 gay couples who tied the knot before the law took effect will stay wed.
The decision Tuesday rejected an argument by gay rights activists that the ban revised the California constitution's equal protection clause to such a dramatic degree that it first needed the Legislature's approval.
The announcement of the decision caused outcry among a sea of demonstrators who had gathered in front of the San Francisco courthouse awaiting the ruling.

Wow, the supreme court did it. They heard us! I know however this fight is not over...

Blake's Graduation

We are outside the Huntsman Center for Blake's Graduation. He walked twice, this is the 11am Economics Convocation. Way to go Blake!
He is wearing two tassels that represent both degrees in Economics and Accounting...He received his diploma's in December but is walking the walk.
We were lucky Aubree could join us for the fun weekend as we celebrated Blake's accomplishments.
Blake, we love you! We couldn't be prouder. You worked hard and deserve the honor...congratulations for a job well done!

Stake Conference Flowers





I've been doing Stake Conference flowers for 8 years now. I never know what I'm going to do. On my trip to the flower wholesaler, my hope is that they have some extraordinary flowers for me to choose from. Some of my absolute favorites are in season. To name a few- pussy willows, cherry blossoms, hydrangeas, peonies, spider mums, which you can see in this arrangement. The heads on these hydrangeas are incredible. White blue-ish tint color with pink tipped petals and huge and puffy, these are stunning! This hot pink peony is a fav. Probably one of my all time favorite arrangements. This picture falls short of doing it justice. The thing about doing these arrangements is that they are beautiful no matter what I do because they speak for themselves. The Lord's creations need no introduction, they stand alone....
