Kirstyn Leaves for Girl’s Camp!

This morning Angela took Kirstyn over to the church and drove down a bunch of 4th year girls to camp.  She took them to their trail head and watched them take off on their 20 or so miles of backwoods adventure! Once Kirstyn got there, she really got excited and is really looking forward to […]

BYU Soccer Camp and Game!

The BYU Men’s Soccer Team was in town for a couple of games and they held a clinic at a nearby high school, so we signed up the boys to go.  The players taught the boys a lot of skills and helped them to become better.   Zach really wants to play soccer now because of

Zach at Cub Camp!

The last couple of days, Zach has been at Cub Camp!  Angela went one day to help out so those are the only pictures he has.  He’s almost a Webelo which he is very excited for!  The theme was a space theme they entitled Galactic Trek.  Zach got to shoot guns and do all sorts

Visit to the Denver Mint

Today, Angela took Kirstyn, Zach, and Ben to the Denver Mint on a field trip.  They had a great time and learned a lot!  Zach especially likes these kinds of historical/social studies types of trips.  He really eats up the knowledge that can be gained.  🙂 Ben’s favorite part was that he got a penny

Kirstyn Ready for Girls Camp (4th Year)

Yesterday we got Kirstyn all packed up and ready to go to girl’s camp.  For the 4th year hike, everything they bring has to be packed on their backs.  Since it is such a rigorous and demanding experience (hiking and living on the trail), they take it very seriously.  Tonight we had to take all

Swimming Lessons

Zach and Ben are in swimming lessons now, as normal, love them.  They are just two fish out of water we think.  The recreation center teachers are good and the boys like them.  Zach especially likes going off the diving board.  🙂 They both passed their classes with flying colors and can’t wait to get

Ben in T-Ball!

Ben started t-ball and is SO excited to be playing!  He had his first game today and loved it!  He did quite well considering he’s never played before.  He may just turn into being one of the best hitters on the team.  He sure has an eye for the ball! He has a great set

Happy 18th Birthday Brittany!

Happy BIG 18th Birthday Brittany!  When Brittany woke up this morning, she let us know that she was now an adult and was fully responsible and could do whatever she wanted now.  🙂  Not sure what the life-changing event was between 11:59pm last night and 12:01am this morning that would make such a difference.  We

Our Friend for the Summer

Today we inherited a new friend for the summer.  Brittany’s best friend here, Sierra, just moved (which was VERY sad for Brittany), but she had a pet gecko that she couldn’t take with her.  That said, she decided to give the gecko to the biology teacher at the school when classes start up again.  Brittany

Teacher Appreciation Dinner

Today we had our annual teacher appreciation dinner.  Unfortunately, this year, there were some last-minute conflicts, so some of the teachers couldn’t come, but we did have most of the seminary teachers (Eisele, Hermann, and Dawson), and the girls’ choir director at CVHS, Heath Walter.  We had a fun time eating, recognizing the teachers, and

This last week was a crazy but fun week!  I decided to lump all o f the craziness into one post…  On Sunday after church, Angela packed Kirstyn, the boys, and Josh Ahlstrom (a friend of ours) into the van and drove out to Utah.  The whole week Kirstyn and Ashley Smith, her best friend
