First Day of School 2009

I always have the hardest time sending my kids off to start another year of school. Is it the growing up or me getting older that I don't like???

Sidney is a big 8th grader

Alex is a 6th grader ready to rule the school!! Mr Kowallis is her teacher, he is new and sounds like he is super excited.

Braydon is going to be a 4th grader this year!! Miss Woods is his teacher.


Wow!! My baby is a first grader!! Hunter you are too big!! His teacher is Mrs. Keller!!

Emma wasn't looking at the camera but here are 4 of the 5 kids from our ward in this class.
We are going to have a great year!! Even if I do get a little lonely!!

15 years with my best friend




I think every marriage has a few rough patches but I think that is what makes you stronger in the end. I have been married to my best friend for 15 years and 1 week now. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. I have a husband who loves me, who provides for me, who spoils me, who makes me want to be better, who believes in me, who strengthens me and who is willing to put up with me. What more could I ask for. I love you Eric!!!

Last Weeks Of Summer

The last couple of weeks of summer have been so busy. We have had some awesome experiences. Some great times with family and made a lot of memories. I think that was my main goal of the summer, making memories.

24th of July

A fun hike and the Owls game.

IDAHO and Family Reunion

Idaho Falls Temple

Titanic Exhibit at The Museum of Idaho. This was so fascinating. We got to each get a boarding pass with someone name on it that was on the Titanic. The exhibit featured items that had been pulled up from the deeps of the Atlantic. Toward the end they had a small iceberg for you to put your hand on. The temperature was 32', what was sad is the water that night was 28'. It was hard to put your hand on for very long. The people the boys were didn't survive but the girls did.





Human foozeball!!




Mesa falls was so beautiful there was no way to capture it in a photo so I took a little video. It gives a better perception of what we actually saw. The falls put 397 to 900 thousand gallons of water over everyday. Amazing!!!



International dance and music festival at BYU Idaho!
Another Owls game!!!

Braydon was able to catch one of the practice balls the team was warming up with!! Way to go Braydon.
Owls win!! By a lot!!!
