It was so fun to have Emily, Preston, Joanna and Sarah home for a few days. Here are some photos of what we did. The family picture is along the Wisconsin River in downtown Wausau. There is an official whitewater competition course there. We went to see some kayak events. Unfortunately, it was raining and not very interesting.


The other photo is a much more successsful activity. We all went to Briq's and the girls ate a one (1) pound ice cream cone. The rest of us opted for lesser amounts.


Three of the kids have gone back to Provo now, but Joanna will be home until Sept. 12, when she goes on her mission. It makes our house so much more like a home when there are more of the kids around. I'll glad they went to the time, trouble and expense to come.

A New Beginning

We have decided to create a family blog to stay in touch with each other and with our friends around the world. Our family is spread across the United States and we have friends in so many places. Our hope is that this blog will allow us to stay in touch and to share our feelings, our experiences, and the new and exciting things in our lives.
