Great Friends = Great Fun!! 8/09

Thanks to our great friends and their fun toys, we get to spend some summer days on the water. It is always fun for all of us to get together and watch the kids (and adults) have such a great time. This was a blast. Thanks Woods!! We love you guys!

Noah's first day of 1st grade 7/09

I can't believe my baby is in 1st grade. Boy is time flying...

Love the cabin 7/09

My parents have a cabin in Island Park that we have been going to since I was young. It is so much fun to take my kids there now and let them enjoy the things that I loved to do as a child. It's the simple things in life really!!! Ü Oh how I love making memories....

The boys watching some sort of sport, I'm sure.

This would have been such a cute picture with

the flowers if only Emery would have cooperated.

Grandma needs more laps...

Ryan chillin' after a long day of, well, NOTHING!!

Emmers likes roasting marshmallows too.

Boys will be boys~

My boys.

Who says you can't have fun on snowmobiles in July??

Happy 38th Birthday Ry!! 7/09

We went to dinner with some friends and then came back to our house for some cake and Ice cream.

The boys wanted to help blow the candles out.

I am kindof a cake show junkie and they make it look

sooo easy on the shows so I wanted to give it a try. It turns

out that it isn't as easy as it looks, but it was still really fun. I made Ryan a

golf bag cake.

Happy 38th birthday honey!!!

Ragnar 6/09

So Ryan and I decided to do a relay race called Ragnar. I'm sure most of you know what Ragnar is, but for those of you who don't, it is a 12 man continuous relay race from Logan to Park City (that's 180 miles). Each person did 3 legs and it took us about 30 hours to do it. I must say, it was a HUGE accomplishment for me and it was absolutely a love/hate experience. Our group was awesome and we had a blast (except for the running part Ü).

Nate and Wendy
