GO ADAM!!!

Tanner's Eagle Project

Tanner decided to paint a map of the U.S. at the school on the black top. It was a fun project, he did great planning it and raising money to fund it, and it looks really awesome.



We also did Hawaii and Alaska which aren't pictured here.

A Facelift for the Kitchen

I've always liked my kitchen but the counter tops made me feel a little glum. We decided to pick out some cool granite and add a full tile backsplash to add some interest and beauty. Now I love my kitchen. :) Thanks David.

BEFORE AFTER

Here is a closeup of the granite so you can see the design in it better.

The Lion and the Lamb?

The lizard generally eats crickets. Yesterday though, this cricket was hanging out on the lizard's back without a worry in the world. Too bad for the cricket that Tony did finally get hungry. :)

Adam Scores

Adam decided to take a break from soccer and try something new. He is playing flag football with a bunch of boys from our neighborhood and he is loving it. The 2 video clips capture a little bit of his offensive and defensive skills. The big one is of him making a touchdown so be sure to watch the ball. The little one shows him keeping the other team from getting their extra point by grabbing the flags just before he enters the end zone. If you can't get out of video play mode after watching the clip, you should be able to click the mouse on it again and it will close.

Rachel Got Her Braces Off!

She is so happy and she can't stop smiling.

A New School Year Has Begun

All the kids are back in school. Today is the first day I have been home all day by myself and I have very mixed emotions. It's so nice to have it be quiet and have some time to myself but at the same time I am a little bit lonely. All my babies are growing up! It's so exciting and yet time is going by so quickly.

Rachel was the first on Monday at 6:55 a.m. Then Tanner headed out to Alta H.S. on Monday at 7:25 a.m. After he left, things were quiet for a little while until Rebecca left at 8:45 a.m. Adam didn't start until Tuesday because he's in 1st grade. So his first full day was Tuesday starting at 8:45 a.m. Joshua left today for BYU. His orientation was starting at 9:00 a.m. so he headed out at about 8:15. Classes won't start for him until Monday though. In fact, I think he's coming back home this weekend. :)
