Where did this week go?

This week has literally been one of the craziest weeks I can remember.









It started by going out of town for the fall break. Going four wheeling in the mountains and around my father-in-law's property in Sigurd, UT left us all pretty tired. The kids had a great time picking out their pumpkins with Grandma and Grandpa from a pumpkin patch in Elsinore. Now if we can keep them from being smashed before Halloween.
We came home and I immediately was finishing up a digital slide show for my friend's wedding reception on Tuesday night. It never goes as smoothly as you hope. Janalee and Paul had a wonderful wedding day. She looked beautiful. It was a lot of work, but it was so much fun putting it together. Congrats Jan & Paul!!!!!

Wednesday I had fun hanging out with my mom and the nieces and nephew. It's always a nice break to spend time with her. In the afternoon I squeezed in a church presidency meeting to get ready for tonight.


Today, I went to work and then made Jeremy mow up all the leaves that he took from our neighbors yard and thought it would be a grand idea to dump them in my "clean" yard. You would have thought I had made him cut his own leg off with all the complaining he was doing.


I spent the rest of the evening finalizing my talk for the stake young women training meeting. By the way, it went well I think.

Now, after doing all of that and squeezing in taking care of the kids, some laundry,and housekeeping (just kidding) I sit here exhausted and tired. So, if I forgot to do something I told you I would do, please remind me because my mind is mush!!!

Victory and Defeat

This was my attempt at growing something this year. The cantaloupe plants themselves grew out of control, but we only had two cantaloupes grow. Maybe next year we will be a little more successful.

Happy Birthday Dad!

Today is my dad's birthday. I thought I would share one of my favorite memories. Thanks Dad for taking us kayaking. We had so much fun launching at the bottom of Flaming Gorge Dam and floating down the Green River in the kayaks that we made out of canvas wood & paint. Who could forget Erica's "Cherry Coke" design! This picture was taken in the summer of 1994 with our favorite ranger "Womback". Yes, there is an inside joke about his name, but it would take too long to explain.

Love you Dad!!! Happy Birthday

One year and counting...

We did it! Today is our first anniversary for our dental practice. What a crazy year it has been and still so much to learn. So many happy days and sleepless nights, but oh so worth it!!!

Thank you for all the support from friends, family and patients. We couldn't have done it without you!
