Real Soccer




Jeremy is a soccer nut! He prefers this sport above all others (who would have guessed). We attended a game with our friends, the Sandbergs. The Rio Tinto stadium is great. There isn't a bad seat in the house, we should know since we sat on the top row. It was a lot of fun.

Growing Up!




Zach and Seth attended their first overnight scout camp. They have great scout leaders. They love to camp and hang out with their friends. They are growing up to fast!

Lake Powell 2009





Lake Powell was a grand adventure. We purchased a timeshare in an older houseboat. We have never run a houseboat on our own before. We spent the first day getting oriented and trained by other owners and staff at the marina. We slept in the dock our first night.
The Gledhills and the Francoms joined us on our maiden voyage. The weather was perfect! The kids had a fabulous time playing on the sea kayak, launching water balloons off of the top deck, watching movies at the end of the day, hiking, building fires, and just goofing off. We took a sight-seeing cruise up Navajo canyon, it was beautiful!

Lake Powell is such a beautiful place. We love visiting each year. It is a lot of work, but well worth it!




5th Grade Program




We made it! The kids all participated in the year end program, celebrating our American History.

Marysville














My dad has wanted to take the grandkids on a four-wheeling expedition for years. The kids have heard grandpa tell all kinds of stories about his adventures. We finally joined him for a weekend full of riding, fishing, hiking and fun. We went with Uncle Pete, Nickie, Kenzie, Bray, Jack and Nick. Grandma and Grandpa rented a cabin, and our family stayed in the motorhome. The kids enjoyed their first experience stream fishing, they loved it, until they had to touch the fish. The highlight of the trip, for the kids, was being able to ride the four-wheelers into town. They thought it was awesome!
