Pool time!

Andrew has become very comfortable in the water. His favorite thing to do is jump in. He tries to count "1..2...3" but the only number he can say is 3.....GO!

Another visit to SLC.

Uncle Philip and his girlfriend Erica were visiting Salt lake last week so Andrew and I drove down to see the family. We had a lot of fun. Here are some pics.

Andrew is learning to "play" the guitar. ( if you listen real close you can hear Andrew singing)

Hot August Nights

This weekend we traveled to Reno for a little vacation with the family. There were lots of old cars to look at, if you like that sort of thing, and lots of fun with Grand-dad and Aunt Annie and Uncle Von. We also got to see Aunt Judy and Uncle Mike, who live in Reno.












Andrew's favorite part may have been the huge jetted tub that was in our room.

YEAH Camping!

We took our first camping trip for my birthday this weekend, and I think it will be a while before we go again! It was a lot of fun but it is a lot of work to camp with a 1 year old.

Happy 4th of July!

We had a great 4th of July! We went swimming Friday afternoon with Daddy when he got off work early! Saturday we had fun shopping for some new clothes for my birthday and then we went to a BBQ at Aunt Annie and Uncle Von's house. It was quite a party, with hamburgers and cake and best of all FIREWORKS! I thought Andrew might be a little scared of the noise, but no, he loves fire so he could not get enough. Every time cousin Josh finished one Andrew yelled "more more".

Happy Father's Day

I just have to say thank you to Walter for being the best daddy Andrew could ever ask for. I love you Walter!

Lowman, ID!

This weekend we packed up the family and headed to Nana's cabin in Lowman. This was our first trip up there and we had a great time. Uncle Lavon and Aunt Annie joined us to show us the ropes. We had Saturday breakfast at the "the Lodge" and then some fishing at the local pond and Andrew met Smokey the Bear. Andrew had the best time playing in the dirt and helping make fires. He ate his first smore and loved it and against my better judgment he had his first ATV ride ( just in the driveway) Turns out they are not as scary as I thought.
