Stan's Wedding





We had a wonderful trip to Montana to attend Stan and Alice's wedding in Billings. Stan is Kim's oldest brother. It was a quick trip that covered a lot of miles and the boys were so good. We stopped and saw Scott and Cokie on the way there and it was nice to be able to visit with them for a few minutes. We stayed in West Yellowstone Thursday night and arrived in Billings in Friday. The boys had a great time playing in Shane and Gina's pool (as evidenced by the photos). And we were so happy we were able to attend the wedding. Stan and Alice seem like they are meant for eacher other. We are so happy they found one another.

Start of Our Summer Fun




We have had a great summer so far (despite the constantly changing weather). We had fun playing with Reagan and Mason, road TRAX into Salt Lake City and took Kim out to lunch, and today we saw "Toy Story 3" in 3-D. Next week we leave for Billings, Mont., for Stan's wedding. We are enjoying every minute of our summer!

Preschool Graduation

This morning Ian graduated from the Newcastle School. We attended his end-of-year program and a short graduation ceremony. Ian has truly loved preschool, especially his teacher Miss Marci. She was Connor's teacher his first year at Newcastle as well, so we have a tremendous amount of respect and love for Miss Marci. Ian's last day of school is Friday and then he will attend two weeks of summer fun camp at Newcastle.

Nerd Day

Today was Nerd Day at Draper Elementary. I think Connor is one of the cutest nerds I've seen.

Draper Elementary Fun Run


Today was Connor's Fun Run at Draper Elementary. It is the school's big fundraiser! Connor did such a great job and finished strong. It was a long way to run for a kindergartener. We are so proud of him. Ian and I ran half way with him. Our whole family plans to run it next year since both boys will be at the school. It is such a great way to promote physical fitness and the importance of exercise.

Check Out My Mother's Day Gift



The boys and Kim got me a new digital camera for Mother's Day. I broke it in at the boys' soccer games today. It has been a very chilly soccer season. Today was the warmest it has been and we enjoyed every ray of sunshine that came our way.




Another Try With Fish

We are the proud owners of an aquarium. We hope our five fish do better than Charles the Goldfish. The fish are named Albert, Ding, Dong, Curvy and Burrow. Connor is very responsible and does really good at feeding them. Ian, on the hand, would rather Connor feed the fish. I don't think he likes the smell of the fish food. We've now had them a week so we have already broken our record in keeping them alive.
