Kids Church


On Sunday (09/20/2009) Charlotte invited us to her church to watch there kids church perform a play. Charlotte directed the play and it was great fun. We learned Jesus wants us to say uplifting words. Ky's puppet was imprisoned by his unkind words...The kids enjoyed the play.

Horses









We spent the first weekend in August at Uncle Will's house. We had a great time riding the horses and hangin out. It had been almost a year since I was up there last. The horse Aubrey and Garet were riding bolted on them during our ride. He was in a hurry to get back home for dinner. We told Garet he was a real Cowboy now. He did such a great job holding on. Needless to say they were a little scared. Ethan was able to ride his own horse by himself but when Aubrey's horse bolted Ethan got just a little nervous. Aubrey and Ethan have sworn off horseback riding...(Untill next time anyway)

LABOR DAY 2009









We had a great Labor Day 2009. We took the kids, my Mom and Gordon the the Tonto creek Fish Hatchery and had a picnic next to the creek. It was the end of a three day weekend of campers, so there was not a lot of fire wood. I just busted out the old Coleman stove. We ate yummy cheese burgers and hot dogs. I think we can all agree, food cooked outside just tastes better. We did find just enough flammables for delicious Smores tho.
We also had a great time introducing rock hopping to the next generation. It is one of my favorite past times. Walking in the creek with out getting wet. The kids had great fun...getting wet.

Aubrey's new puppy, "SIENNA"


Aubrey got a new Chocolate Cocker Spaniel. She needed a new baby in the house is my guess... but dont tell her I said so ;) Sienna is very sweet and the kids lover. Titan... not so much, he almost ate her.








CABO SAN LUCUS

We had a great time on our cruise. One of our favorite ports was Cabo San Lucus. In Cabo there is a beach on the Sea of Cortez side called "Lover's Beach" because the water is calm and beautiful, great for snorkeling. On the Pacific Ocean side the beach is called "Divorce Beach". As you can guess, the water is rough and dangerous. It was still beautiful though. Aubrey really enjoyed snorkeling and seeing the sea lions.
