Most of what we’re getting are cucumbers, zucchini and tomatoes. 🙂 The other things are growing a little slower but that’s to be expected. The growing season here in Colorado is MUCH shorter than it was in Illinois so we have […]

The boys are back in swimming lessons and they are going well! They love the water and want to go swimming ALL the time! Tonight our home teaching families came over for a 24th of July BBQ. Not sure why, but we didn’t get any pictures. Due to some rain, we had to cut the

Happy Birthday Zach! Big 10! To celebrate (in a way), over the last 2 days, we went on a camping trip with our friends the Pocock’s to Rocky Mountain National Park! It was such a great getaway and even though it rained the night of the 4th and we got a little soggy, the weather
Today, Ben lost his 2 front teeth! He was SO excited for 2 reasons: 1) the Tooth Fairy, and 2) he is becoming a “big boy!” We had to laugh about that. He’s quite the kid! In addition, today, Kirstyn came home from girl’s camp! She had a GREAT time and loved the experience! She
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
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
