Rick & Andrew's High Adventure...

Rick and Andrew went on the trip of a lifetime this summer. They went with the boys in our ward down the Green River on canoes. It was a trip that lasted the entire week. They camped along the shore as they went. Most of the dads went and the Young Men leaders. The Bishop and his counselors all went as well. They really had a wonderful time. They even got to stay with Grandma & Grandpa Cozzens in Moab the night before they left on the trip. We feel extremely blessed to have such a wonderful ward, an amazing Bishop and great leaders that care so much for our son.




The best part of the trip for most of the boys was the night Andrew started screaming that he was trapped in a milk jug and couldn't get out! He gets a little claustrophobic in tents sometimes.

Last day of Soccer!

Today was everyone's last soccer game. We are kind of excited to get our Saturdays back. Harrison was the goalie the whole game, he does such a great job of it. When asked how many goals he stopped, he replied, "a million." I'm not sure that's quite accurate...but we'll let it by for now. Harrison really enjoys sports and he is so good at them. He is fast and loves to race everyone. This soccer league has been a lot of fun for him because he gets to see so many friends at the games.

Nathan at Thanksgiving Point

Nathan went with his preschool class to Thanksgiving Point today. They went and visited the farm. He loved the baby cows (they look really uncomfortable when they sleep), the sheep, horses, goats, turkeys, and baby chicks. He was grossed out when he fed the goat and it licked his hand! He kept wiping it on things the rest of the time. They got to ride horses. His friend Daxon is one of his best buddies. A huge dust storm came while they were riding the horses and the day got cut short. After the storm passed we went to the Discovery Park and had popcicles. What a fun day. Nathan is really going to miss preschool, but Mrs. Strong (his current teacher) will also be his kindergarten teacher! That will be fun for him. He is very excited to start kindergarten!

Family Home Evening...weeding?

Tonight the kids were going to help us weed for family home evening. It started out pretty well, but turned into a fun night for chalking the sidewalks, riding the scooters, and playing with lady bugs! Our flowers are blooming and the tomatoes and herbs are on their way.

Mother's Day 2007 at James' home...

We had a wonderful Mother's Day dinner at Jane & Marlyn's house. We went over after church on Sunday and the men made the dinner (it sounds scarier than it really was). We had yummy grilled chicken, hamburgers and hot dogs as well as some salads. Rick brought his famous (he has made it one other time) Cesar Salad with Anchovies! We also celebrated Mark, Jared, Seth & Emma's birthdays. The kids always have so much fun together.
