One Last Trip

Here are all of the Cousins!










































That Famous Preston Night Rodeo & Carnival!




















We met up with my brother in Utah for a cookout, and Sheldon and Taylor had a chance to get to know their new cousins, Benjamin and Jacob.

















Taylor had fun keeping up with the boys!

Golf Camp

These are some pictures from Sheldon's last day of golf camp. Right now golf seems to be the sport of choice. I will try and add some video of Taylor, she is such a cute little golfer too.

Welcome Milo!

We are so excited to have a new little nephew! Congratulations Becky & Mike!!

Ensign Ranch

We took a four day trip to central Washington with my family. This is our second year going to Ensign Ranch, and it really is a perfect place for young kids.

Mom & Dad

We took a side trip to Leavenworth to check out the Bavarian village & to see a play.

We went to The Sound of Music at an outdoor amphitheater. The kids really enjoyed the play and it was the highlight of my trip. When we got home Sheldon even asked to watch the Sound of Music on DVD. But the best part is when I hear my kids spontaneously break out singing, 'How do you Solve a Problem Like Maria'...or 'So long Farewell'.

Reading Program

Taylor on lesson 100!


Sheldon at his 100 day party!



This is a reading program that I have used with both of my kids, and I absolutely love it. I try and tell everyone about it, so I thought I would include it in my blog. Taylor just finished and it took about 9 months to complete. The book is only about $20.00 at your local bookstore. After 100 lessons they will be reading at a first grade reading level.

Our 4th of July

We spent a great four day weekend with Kathy's family. It was a really relaxing vacation and we can't wait to go back next year. If you want to see more pictures from our trip you can checkout Kathy's blog.

A Summer Slow Down

Sheldon was playing at a friends house and hurt is ankle. Nothing broken, just torn ligaments. He will have to hit the sideline for 3 weeks.
