Summer Fun

Enoch's Field Trip

I attended Enoch's 1st grade field trip with him at the end of May. We went to the Coral Pink Sand Dunes. About 20 minutes from our house, north of Kanab, there is a turn-off to go to the sand dunes. After you turn off you drive about 30 minutes through desert and come to the sand dunes. It was pretty cold and windy (especially for being the end of May), but we had fun and got covered with sand anyway. Without trying we all took home some souvenir sand...

Bubble Boys

Baseball Season Has Begun!

Yesterday was Enoch's first baseball game. He played shortstop and 2nd base. He did a great job at stopping the ball, and throwing it (even if he wasn't sure where to throw it.) And he did a great job at his one time batting (even if he did strike out - we're blaming it on the pitching machine.)

He is on the Cincinnati Reds coach pitch team with other boys his age. The next month and a half is going to be busy - an hour and a half practice twice a week and one to two games a week. But it's going to be fun! His coaches are three guys from our ward that also have boys on the team. There are also some boys from his school class on his team also.

Ezra

Today is our sweet Ezra's birthday. He would have been 5 years old. We love him and are so thankful that he is a part of our family, even if he isn't here with us right now. We will be with him again some day.

No pictures :(

Sadly, I don't have any new pictures to post! But I thought I'd give a shout out to anyone who is reading this.....HI! We're doing great. It's been a warm week, and the kids have loved playing out in the sand box for the last few days. There was some water from the melted snow from last week, and they love getting messy! Isaiah just climbs right in with the big kids.

Duane broke his foot 2 1/2 weeks ago, but he's already walking on it. Thankfully it was a small brake, and mostly a sprained ankle which has healed well. He is having a hard time waiting to play racquetball again. (He broke it playing racquetball. He didn't even have anyone's help. He did it all by himself. But didn't score any points for it.)

As spring gets closer we're getting closer to cutting down all our over grown rose bushes. If only we had electric pruning shears or something. We're also getting excited to have a garden. It's almost time to start some of the seeds!

Maybe I'll have some new pictures soon! Thanks for reading!
