The payoff is great!


Avery was watching some home videos of Coral roller skating, when she was little, and really wanted some for herself. Curtis made her work for them by having her write all of her ABC's (five times), all of our names, and all of her numbers. She did and here she is in her new roller skates (isn't the outfit she put together fabulous?!)

GO CURTIS!!!


MIKAYA THINKS HER DAD WILL WIN FIRST!!


Avery thinks he will win 3rd!

5K Race at the Farm




We woke up at 5:45 a.m. to be at a farm, where Curtis would follow in the wake of the Olympic trials and would end up winning 2nd in his 5K race. I guess we should say that there were only a few other runners, the rest were walkers. We, of course, thought he did great; and Avery and Mikaya had fun feeding the farm animals!

Random pictures from Idaho and Yosemite










My mom, my sister, and I had fun shopping for Coral's school clothes, but the little girls weren't quite as excited, as you can tell.




We went to visit my mom and dad in Idaho. Coral went to EFY at BYU while we were there. Avery and Mikaya continued to have fun visiting with family, going swimming, going to art in the park, and swinging on a swing my dad made. Curtis flew out and we went to a water park and to a family reunion for my mom's side of the family. I loved hearing about her dad's family and the amazing legacy they have left for their children and grandchildren.....Make sure to visit "Older Posts" for Yosemite trip.
