Our Summer Happenings

I thought I might strive to do at least one posting bi-annually. I know, I know.. it seems a little over-achieverish, but if one never strives, one never achieves. So here's a quick synopsis of our summer.

Below is a picture of one of Ryan's more successful fishing trips this summer (o.k., so ignore the snow... I guess this was more of an early, early 'spring' excursion). He only had to drive about 40 minutes to get these monsters.


We went hiking a few times this summer, although not as often as we had hoped due to me being pregnant and all. This is a hike we took about 30 mintues from home. The boys had a ball exploring all of the nooks and caves and fossils.





Hunter lost 4 more teeth. Poor guy, he can barely eat.


Hayden (my brother) and his wife Heather (and their 4 children) came to visit us. We had a wonderful time. The kids got along so well. We went to the fair, went up to the mountains where the kids caught wild mice and lizards and gorged themselves on smores, and had many a political talk late into the wee morning hours. We enjoyed their visit immensely and hope they come back soon!!




Every year me and some of my college roommates and friends try to get together for a girls trip. This year we went to Education Week at BYU-Idaho. We spent 4 days in Rexburg, Idaho going to classes in the day and playing and goofing off in the evenings. Here's some pictures of one of our night-time activities. We played the white elephant game with costumes. The costume we ended up with, we had to wear to dinner. Let me tell you, we looked HOT@!




And we can't forget our new kitty, Rosie. She has been so patient as she gets hauled around by the neck by little Teagan. They are the best of pals (at least Teagan thinks so..)



Signing off for another 6 months.... hee hee
