Back to School

Caleb and Dallin at the bus stop.


These are Caleb's buddies. The one in blue is named Allonzo and he is in Caleb's class. This morning he saw me taking a picture of Caleb and walked up to us to say, "Don't I look handsome today?" I responded that he did indeed and that I might just have to take a picture of him. To this he said, "That would be fine, but first let me tell you the secret to getting my hair to look so good. First, get lots of water on it. Second, take a comb through it. Third, make the sides spike." He added that I could do Caleb's hair that way, too, if wanted...I don't! I wish I could have gotten a closer shot of his hair style, but I thought you'd appreciate the story anyhow.


And he's off to first grade.


Dallin and I go about our day collecting rollie pollies.

Another Fine Fish!

Michael and his brother went fishing this weekend and caught 42 fish in all. Here are a few of their finest.

Spaghetti Dinner

We had the pleasure of Riley's company for a week. She is a crack-up! This evening as we sat down to eat spaghetti she was trying to slurp it, but would go cross-eyed as she tried to land it in her mouth. Mike and I were laughing and egging her on just so that we could see her cute little cross-eyed face.


Dallin gets goofy, as well.

Boys in Their Boats

We went exploring at Chatfield Lake Park with cousins on one of our final days of summer. The boys loved the boats and spent their time navigating this waterway. Dallin liked being rescued, as he spent most of his time falling out and climbing back in the boat .
