Sophie's first day of 2nd Grade



Dang that girl. She keeps growing and growing and growing! She's the tallest person in the 2nd grade and SHE LOVES IT! I can't say that at that age I enjoyed being the tallest but she wears it with pride and I'm so proud of her. Most girls are planning what they'll wear on the first day of school but as you can see, Sophie is comfortable in her own skin and cut off sweat shorts and old T of Aunt Laura's. I love that about her! I can only pray that it stays with her.

At the Cabin.





We went to the cabin for the day after lunch in Kamas. The weather was amazing and the sound of the river rushing by washed away every care in the world. I feel most spiritual and peaceful when I'm in the great outdoors. We are so blessed to live near such beauty!

Day two of Granny's visit.




































Granny flew to SLC from Texas alone this year. She said that she much prefers it that way because she gets a lot of special treatment by the steward and stewardesses. "I'm glad that this gray hair is good for something." Love you so much, Granny.

Summer BBQ with the Clarks

The Clarks are our most fabulous neighbors. It's so nice to have neighbors that watch out for each other and help each other. They've been a tremendous help over the past 5 years. As their family grows, I know that we won't be neighbors forever but until then...thanks for the chips and tortillas!

They hosted a neighborhood BBQ this summer and this is Audrey after playing in the sandbox.

Granny's visit this year.
