Ian 6 moIan is 6 months old!!!  I can’t believe how cute he is.

He is a smiley happy guy that is always moving, kicking, or bouncing.  He loves jumping in the exersaucer (or your lap).  He is eager to eat almost anything placed in front of him and he is all but sitting up on his own. 

He loves to play with Daddy’s buzzed head and always checks with mom before a stranger holds him. 

The older kids love to “play” with him and Hyrum has come up with jingle for his name that we all sing now.     What would we do without him?  We love you, Ian! continue reading...

We celebrated the 4th of July weekend in Soda Springs with my family this year.  Geyser

We enjoyed a small town parade (with candy!), a hot dog roast (in the garage because of the rain), cousins, and a great fireworks show from Grandpa and Grandma’s front yard. 

We even took the kids to see the World’s Only Captive Geyser…Soda Springs’ claim to fame.  You can see the kids taking a look with their cousins Tanner and Portyr. 

I hope they grow up knowing how lucky they are to live in country where they blessed with freedom and opportunities like no other.  Happy Birthday, America! continue reading...
