First Day of School!

Devon started Kindergarten today! He goes to school from 7:45am-2:45pm. It seems like such a long day for a 5-year-old but he seemed to have a great day. We met his teacher last week and were very impressed. Tyson is going to be getting some one-on-one training from Stephenie this year instead of going to preschool. They started today as well and Tyson learned alot and worked on some fun projects. Jared starts early morning seminary again tomorrow morning and is looking forward to teaching the New Testament this year. He teaches a Sophmore/Junior class of about 25 students. Life is good and we are happy and grateful for all our blessings.

We Have Our 1st Swimmer!

Devon & Tyson have been taking personal swimming lessons the last two weeks and we are ecstatic with the results-last year Devon had group lessons and we didn't see any progress. Now, Tyson is fearless and swimming very well and Devon is officially swimming by himself! He can jump in the pool, go wherever he wants, float when he needs a rest, etc (I guess you know what it means to be a swimmer but it is so fun as a parent to see our child get to this stage:) Way to go boys!

Ty & Jonas playing cars in the dirt

The boys were caked in dirt most of our camping trip :)

Our cousin Brooke was so sweet to play with the boys so much at our reunion. Here she was building a stick fort with the boys.

Aunt Janelle with Kylie - several people have said that Kylie looks like her Aunt Janelle.

Uncle Darin playing and singing for Tyson. The boys love their uncle Darin!
A special THANKS to our sister-in-law Alicia who took a lot of the pictures during our vacation and family reunions and to Stef Bellows who took our new family pictures in the right column! You guys are AWESOME! We sure had fun visiting our families this summer! We love and miss you all! I am hoping to get pictures from my sisters from the week that we spent in California with my family - Jared had to get back to school and had to take the camera with him, but hopefully I can post some of my sisters pics soon.

Cousins!! :)








You gotta love cousins! The boys had a blast the last few weeks spending so much time with my bro's kids. They all played really well together. All the boys made tie-dyed T-shirts at one of the family reunions we had. It has worked out perfectly that my brother has had all boys and now they are expecting a little girl really soon that Kylie will be able to play with.

Corbridge Family Reunion





We just enjoyed a two week vacation to Reno and California. We were lucky that my time off coincided with two big family reunions. These pictures are from the Corbridge one in Cisco Grove, CA up in the Sierra Nevadas. All of my Dad's bro's and sisters were there. We enjoyed camping, 4-wheeling, mountain bike riding, games, sand volleyball, and great times together.
