So my sister didn't like that I wasn't on my own blog. So here I am!

Austin

Oh my goodness! Is that my son, how can it be. He was a baby yesterday! Austin is in the 9th grade this year, 6' 1" and growing! He is on the 9th grade football team and signed up for drivers ed. We were going to sign him up for drivers ed earlier in the summer, but he had a lot going on. In July he had a long time problem fixed - not being able to breathe out of the right side. He basically had 4 surgeries to fix all that was wrong. OUCH! It was a long hard week, but now we are so glad we got it taken care of. Thanks to a great Dr. we are breathing and moving on. He is also allergic to about everything under the sun we found out. So weekly allergy shots it is. Those darn mothers that make you go to the Dr!

He also had a lot of fun this summer with the boat and wakeboarding. He is a lot like his dad and thinking about what his first vehicle should be.

Carson

Carson with his dark hair. He turned 12 on July 3rd. He loved his birthday, we went to our friends' huge 4th of July party with blow up toys, music, and fireworks. Then the next day we left for Bear Lake. We bought a wakeboard for his birthday, and he believes he is the master. He is in the 7th grade. School work is not his priority more like football and girls! Oh Boy! We love watching him grow and he has the greatest spirit.

Boating Fun

More boating fun. This was at the first of summer, it was a little "chilly". Aunt Neen also went with us as much as she could. We loved being able to spend time together. We even got Grandma Georgette out one day at Palisades. We think she had fun, but she doesn't want to talk about getting out of the lake with the ladder on the boat!

Marshall

Most everyone knows that Marshall had a huge change in his life this summer. The 1st of June he quit working for Rigby Chevrolet to go to work for Klassic Cars in St Anthony. So far so good, but what an adaption. Life is short, and we wanted to keep Marshall looking like he does in this picture, which is my favorite of him!

Furry loved ones

You can't really talk about our family without including our 4 legged children. Sami on the right is 8 1/2 years old. Not the smartest tool in the shed, but we love her very much. Our 2 newest additions that we have had for over a year are Jack & Maya. As you can see they are the best of buddies. They love to play and sleep together. We would have bet money that we would never have a cat. But as you can see, things change.
