Adventure

2 weeks ago we set out on a little "adventure"

my heart and soul were aching to see the Tetons again.



5.5 hours and 2 states later we found them, and a HUGE hail storm



we spent the night in Jackson Hole ("where cowboys live", if you ask the boys)



saw a bunch of these guys (and gals), up close and personal





and spent some time on the bank of the Snake River.



It was a fun, spontaneous, 2 day adventure. And the kids did great, and enjoyed it too!


Noah in the wild!!

Need a Smile??

We love watching this music video!! The kids think it's very fun.

Watch Video

P.S. I promise to post pictures tonight after everyone has gone to sleep . . .

Summer Recap

I haven't posted much about our summer happenings. It's been a bit overwhelming for me. I just don't know where to start!!?! So, since summer is officially over in less than one week now (school will be starting), I'm going to do a post each night to highlight a bit of our summer for you. (Exciting - NO?!!?)

So in no particular order, here's our summer of 2009:

We were able to attend the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house.

The kids were great through it all, and really enjoyed it. Though you can't really tell from this picture.

Marlee lost a million (not really!) teeth within a few weeks of each other. Just look at those holes in her mouth!! The tooth fairy almost couldn't keep up with the losses.

Nathan had a birthday. It was low key, really low key, this year. I still feel bad about that. But isn't the tower of Anzac Cookies (Biscuits) impressive?

They say a picture is worth a thousand words . . .

No wonder I'm tired!!
