The Polar Express

Our family trip on the "Polar Express" a.k.a. the Heber Creeper.

Daniel @ Salt Lake Children's Choir Concert

Daniel at the Cathedral of the Madeline for his choir concert. Photos aren't great but the concert was.

This is Daniel Riding In Aunt Suzies New PT Cruiser. It was SOOOO COOL he wouldn't go home . Dad thought About buying one but they were expensive!!!
but Other than that he would buy it.

The boys (and Dad) especially enjoyed playing in the water. They brought home a small rock collection that they found in the stream at the bottom of the falls. Water, dirt, and poison ivy made the hike back to the van less than comfortable but we all survived.

For Labor Day we went hiking to Stewart Falls - above Sundance and Aspen Grove in Provo Canyon. What a beautiful hike!! Hannah fell a few times and looked so adorably dirty that several people commented on our hike back down.

Shift - the key guy

Benjamin and Daniel had a fantastic time at Camp Invention where they made lots of creations to solve problems that they weregiven. This is Benjamin's "shift" guy that he made out of keys from an old computer keyboard.

President And King

First Daniel Was President and then he thought he wanted to rule England. But That's a Different story. He made crazy laws. He was mad with Power so when ever there are wars over
Vlassic Crunchy Dills, You will know thats him.

Shake, Rattle, and Roll

Here are Uncle Kyle, Riley, Daniel and Marisa at the much anticipated annual "Grandpa Kay's Lagoon Day". They are in the line for that ride where you are straight-jacketed in a little round cage and roll all around every which way. Their faces were a different color when they came back out.

A Festive Fourth

Hannah and her cousin Gwen were the absolute cutest in their patriotic attire. We had a fabulous 4th with all of the cousins. Kudos to Aunt Mabel for the adorable dresses and the photo.

The Crocodile Cruiser

J-doodle is working hard at learning to ride a bike with no training wheels. The bike he is riding is affectionately known as "The Crocodile Cruiser". It was Nano's birthday gift for his 3rd birthday when we lived in Kansas. It was repainted for B-jammin when he was about 3 and then repainted by the boys and their friends in our garage when Daddy forgot to lock up the spray paint. It is always the most popular bike in the neighborhood.
