brynnlys baptism

well brynnly was baptized last sunday and it was lovely. The first time I think anything has happened in this family and been low-key. Mom, Dad, Sarah and Debbie were here to celebrate with us. The church has this beautiful quilt that they put her name on. It was a great day. We went up into the mountains to take a few pics of Brynnly in the dress. Any way.... thanks for all your prayers and being with us that day in spirit. love you all.

Sarah came back with us for the month of August. Its been really fun! The girls are loving her being here. Brynnly loves all the attention, and Taylor loves more time with mommy. We have been going everyday to the park or river or anything. We actually rode our bikes to the nearest elementary school ( where taylor might go ) and got caught in one of the many storms that comes through. I had the best time but Stephen and Sarah were less then thrilled. Come On... how often do you get to ride your bike in a complete down pour and crazy wind?!! Its so fun but that may just be the little kid in me.

San Diego!!!!!!!!!!!!

We just went on our first vacation as a family to San Diego and it was so much fun! The journey was so exciting, exhausting, and fast that we are glad to be back home into our normal routine. We had such a filled itinerary that we hardly had time to relax. We got to see almost everyone we wanted to see and do everything we wanted to do thanks to my parents. I just wish we could have done more down time at home with my dad. Disneyland, the Zoo, Padres game from the Kimballs, the beach, Kylene and Dougs wedding, family meals and time together, and ohhhh the food! We do wish we got more Jacks and In and Out but we definitely brought back gassy memories of mexican food. I think i put on 6 pounds in authentic re-fried beans! I hope to all who see this you know how much fun we had. It was nice to see you all, but the best part about the trip back home to San Diego was knowing that is was not home anymore. Home is here in beautiful Bozeman that we made together. Its ours and we love it, just like my aunt Kathy said. We hope to see you all soon. Love you all!!
