So Much to Say

UPDATED:  I added some captions to pictures below.  Now I'm just going to add some new pictures. There is so much to tell you.  I still have not wrapped this blog up and printed it in book form but I'm mighty close.  Here are several pictures of our happenings over the past while. It is so fun to see these pictures.  It's late so I'll put captions on these pictures soon.  But I'm ready for bed. I had a wonderful day with my children in Salt Lake and with my family at my sisters home in Highland, UT.  Such a lovely day...and it even rained!  -check back soon-


Our darling 5th baby.  She's 15 months and a joy.

Do these glasses fit?

Tom coached the boys baseball team.  they made it to the championship then lost.  Not bad going into the tournament 6th seed.

Drove a motor home to Montana in May.  It was an experience to say the least.  I think I prefer our Suburban.






Kids did the mile run in June
Tom three-peated in the 3on3 b-ball tournament.


Tally turned 1.  Can you see her inhaling the cupcake?



I think this is the 5th annual trip to Cherry Hill - a water slide park.  We almost forgot to get a picture.  We were getting ready to leave.
