Sam missed only 2 days of class in 4th grade. Good enough to get an attendance award. I’m not sure he was too happy about getting his picture taken in front of the class. Next stop, 5th grade.

Summer Trip – Les Miserables, Aladdin, and the 4th of July
Some other highlights of our trip included attending Les Miserables at the Utah Shakespeare Festival. Les Miserables isn’t exactly Shakespeare fare but I’m glad they staged it nonetheless. We have the CDs and videos in our house and it’s a particular favorite of Anne’s so practically everyone in the family knows the play and the… Continue reading Summer Trip – Les Miserables, Aladdin, and the 4th of July
Summer Trip – Cedar City via Cove Fort
This summer we had an exchange student come and stay with us for a month. Ainhoa is from Zarautz Spain, in the Basque country. The start of her stay coincided with a trip to Cedar City to visit Grandpa Kent and Grandma Connie. It was fun having Ainhoa along although one problem with increasing our… Continue reading Summer Trip – Cedar City via Cove Fort
Anne’s Birthday

The cherry blossoms and white flowers… Continue reading Untitled
Diana’s Birthday and Baptism
A Birthday and a Bear
Sam recently had a birthday and turned 10 years old. He and Diana have birthdays fairly close together so they got to jointly select the location for their birthday dinner. Their choice? Golden Corral. It was the first time any of us had ever been to Golden Corral and I think the kids were influenced… Continue reading A Birthday and a Bear

Catching Up
I’ve been remiss in updating this blog. In fact, I’m two years behind on accumulated posts. In the past I used the fact I was in school as an excuse to let the blog lapse. Then I got a new job right after graduation so that was a distraction. But it’s finally time to stop… Continue reading Catching Up
New Pool Table
Now that our basement is finished, we have enough space for a game room. What game room is complete without a pool table? It was fun to learn about tables and go shopping with Nancy. Neither of us are any good at pool but we figured it would be something fun to have for the… Continue reading New Pool Table
