Labor Day Breakfast in the Canyon

For Labor Day, we drove up City Creek Canyon with my family and had a delicious breakfast!  It was chilly up there!  Rich made some delicious homemade Egg McMuffins and we just were able to enjoy one another's company!

 Sam's always good at crying for no good reason!


 Rich (in his shorts) carried several people across the river, including his cute wife, Misty

 And this is how he brought her back across




 This is one of my favorite all time pictures of me and my dad!  I sure love his guy!  His health hasn't been very good this entire winter, so it was fun to see a picture of him feeling pretty good.  He has been and always will be my hero!

 In Jack's world, there's always a large stick to be found!

Running around and playing

First days of School - August 2017

The summer flew by and it was time for school to start again!  We had 3 different start dates for our bunch..

The first was Jack!  He started on Friday, August 19th.  Our school district has just the 7th graders go the day before everyone else.  That way, they are the only ones in the school and they get a chance to learn the layout of a new school.



Emily, Lindsey, Kate  & Hannah started on Monday, August 22nd.
Emily - 11th grade - Murray High School
Lindsey - 9th grade - Hillcrest Jr. High
Kate - 5th grade - Longview Elementary (teacher Mrs. Patterson)
Hannah - 3rd grade - Longview Elementary (teacher: Mrs. Page)




 For future generations who may look at this picture and wonder what Kate is doing, it's called the Dab.  I have no idea why people do this!


 Hannah & BFF Heidi




A week later, on August 29th, this sweet little girl of ours started Kindergarten.  She absolutely LOVES school and I'm so grateful that I still get to have her home in the afternoons.  She goes to morning Kindergarten and has Mrs. Tomlinson for her teacher.
