More More June

We were invited over to the Yonks (neighbors) for a barbeque.  Andrew has a way with the ladies I'm afraid!

 Kaera loves swinging

 Pure joy!

 Boys enjoying electronics...

 Cousins came in town from Washington State to go to youth conference at Utah State University.  Enjoying dinner with our family.

Shad and I went on his scout camp down in Southern Utah.  Mornings...

 I have other photos that may be added but this is how it ends.  Shad throwing up in the ditch on the way home. Missing that good home cooking I presume!

 Had to throw this in.  Kaera is a brushing fanatic!  She brushes any time of the day all day.  We need to buy that baking soda paste my mother used to force down my throat!  That would cure her.  I bet she never gets cavities!

 Some kind notes from the kids on Fathers Day.  (Did you know it was Fathers Day down here in AU last week (September)!?

 I don't know what the excuse was for this gathering other than Ryan (Brother) was coming through town.  I guess we don't need a good excuse to buy lots of ice cream and put it down.  Uncle Mitch cleaned up Kaera good.  A great uncle!

More June

Every June Shad and I have this tradition of entering the valley 52 hour photo contest where you run around the valley trying to find the best picture and then enter two.  We have never won but we've sold more than the winners (they put them in a tent at the summer arts fair after the contest).  Does that count for something?  The thrill of the chase and time together beats any $250 prize right!

Then we put up a booth and sell photos at the art show.  Shad here is helping me set up.  He is quite a trooper.  I'm blessed to have such a great son!

Here are some shots of the booth

 Keara with a great hair due:

 Hanging out

 Mastered that toy

 Wrestling... Keare seeing that her buddy seems to be on the bottom is headed to get some artillery to help...

 Headed out on a date and Kaera doesn't seem to be pleased with dad's hair help...

 Enjoying dessert on the date

June

Unfortunately a neighbor saw that Kaera liked to shop and loaned us this extremely dangerous toy!

 Kvinde feeling a little under the weather...

 This is what we were greeted with on the way to church!Must have been quite a night.

 Sure makes dad happy to see his favorite women getting along so well!

 Buddies!

Here is our sweetie sleeping

 I had a conference somewhere and Raeghn/Kaera came with me.

 I'm holding my breadth that she'll like photography so she can carry my gear around when I'm old.

 Some funny signs on our travels.

 A good reminder for us and Wayne

 I'm the laugh one!

 Here is Raeghn's room mate from college that happens to live where we went (CA I believe).

Goings on around Mother's day time of the year

Tons to catch up on!  I'm sitting in a hotel in Adelaide Australia and trying to use my down time to get some pictures posted.

Shad and I made Raeghn Breakfast for Mother's Day.  She deserves it!  She's super.

Kaera is a cutie.

Raeghn said she'd push me around in Ikea if I'd go with her so I took her up on the offer.  I'm sitting on a cart and taking a picture in the expensive mirror.

 You have to know the story on this one.  The calico mother lost her kittens and now she's stealing the babies from the white mother.  Next picture shows that she won.  It has been interesting to watch the wrestle.

Here is evidence that we have the best wife/mother in the world!  She let us put a hoop up in the living room!  We had some great games in there until it broke (I shouldn't have slammed it -10.5' high BTW).

 Guess which pizza the kids got Friday night?  wrong!

 Kaera and the boys reading.
