Down by the river

Ok, i am on a blogging mission tonight, found some adorable photos.Oh I forgot to say that SId has become quite serious these past few weeks. Must have alot on his mind with all the new things he can get to now he can crawl. Though he still just likes to hang around me, he sticks by me and follows me around where ever i go. my little mate.

our family

We had a visit from the Hyldahl's and Tarr's this past week which involved lots of rain, good food, trains, stories about semi trailers, looking at the cute babies, new clothes for Sid, matching life is good t-shirts, lots of love and a fun road trip to the white mountains. THANK YOU for coming.. we only took two photo's though.we need to get together again with our matching t-shirts please!!

New York Weekend

This weekend Rowe, Torah and I went out to see the Hill Cumorah pageant in Palmyra.  There also happened to be a bike race on the way......so we stopped.  We camped Friday night at the race venue.  Woke up Saturday and raced at 8:00 (I finished 2nd).  Jumped in the car and drove 4 hours to Palmyra.  Checked into an over-priced motel.  Took a much needed shower.  Went to the pageant. Ate a whole lot of food at the pageant. Returned to the motel and passed out. Woke up on Sunday and attended a very crowded sacrament meeting where we listened to a choir that had a soloist who sounded exactly like Neil Young. Visited the sacred grove and the palmyra temple. Drove the 5.5 hours home. Passed out at home.

I couldn't think of a better way to spend a weekend.

the wind beneath my wings

The air conditioner broke in our car the other day. we travel with the windows down - so hot here right now. Sid and his wispy hair are loving it. Going to the Hill cumorah on the weekend - it is gonna be a sweaty trip!!

Sid today

Not sure what is funnier. Sid or me. not sure what got into me. We have a chukle like this every day. Sorry about the bikini, we were on our way to the lake.



oh how we love you Sid.

I can't keep up with this blogging thing, so many good photos and videos to come one day.
