Our New Ride

No, its not our new honda, nor Bryce's new motorcycle - its our kids new ride! We got it at a yard sale on Saturday for $20 bucks and the only time they aren't on it is when we have to charge the battery! It is so fun! I always wanted one of these as a kid, do you think I will fit?

California

We took a week to visit Bryce's sister, Tonya, and her family in California. We were fortunate enough to be there with his other sister, Talana, and her family too! We had a blast - here are a few of the fun things we did:

Arizona

Taking Time to Smell the Roses

While driving across country this summer, we were able to see some amazing sights along the way. We decided too late to take pictures of what we saw, but here are some pictures of some things we saw along the way - sometimes we even took time to stop and stretch out to get closer looks.

(cliff dwellings in Northern AZ, mountains and cliffs somewhere between Utah and AZ, rainstorms, sunrises and moon-rises, Colorado river canyons. Oh, and one in North Carolina. Can you guess which one that is??)

St. George

We spent a couple of days in St. George with our friends, the Browns this summer. We got so many cute pictures of all the kids together, so I had to put a couple on here. Its fun to see how quickly the kids are growing! We had a good time keeping cool in the sprinklers on the trampoline - playing around the house - and taking a trip to the St. George temple.

Summer Trip Take One

Because I have to catch up - I will do the crazy-out-west-summer trip one piece at a time. Here is a slide show of a FEW of the pictures from the beginning of the trip: We started in Centerville/Bountiful UT for the 4th of July celebrations, then up north to Bear Lake for Bryce's family reunion.

1st Day of School

Our first day to school was last Wednesday and so far, so good! The kids have really enjoyed their first 3 days at their new school. They are getting to know all the kids in the class and hopefully they won't feel like the new kids for much longer. And I'm totally diggin' the uniforms! Don't they look nice? All the kids in the school look so classy and clean-cut - I love it!
