New Home

  • Primary Photo [click for next photo]
We are very excited about moving into our new house. It is in Holladay, and has about 2200 Sq ft, but only about 1100 sq ft finished. Jake is excited about the basement not being finished so we can do what we want with it. We close on our house in a couple of days. The house is in amazing condition for how old it is (built in 1942) We are very excited to have a place to call our own! I have already told Jake we will NOT be moving again anytime soon! I am sad to leave Vernal but excited for what is to come!

The L Family







A friend here in Vernal asked me to take pictures of her family. We had great overcast conditions and, when you add a beautiful family, you have great pictures. The kids were desperate to get done so they could get ice cream. Thanks for letting me take your picture. Here's a sneak peak!

Sound asleep



You know you must be tired when you fall asleep playing mario kart! Jack was playing mario kart on the wii the other day and when I went to check on him he was sound asleep! This isn't the first time he has fallen asleep playing video games. He has done it several times before in the car playing his nintendo ds. I guess when it is 4:00 in the afternoon and you haven't had a nap you are bound to fall sleep even while playing the wii!

Sam's first day of kindergarten











Talking on the phone to Grandma telling her all about his day!

HE did it.....Samuel and I survived his first day of kindergarten! He has been so excited to go to school! This morning he actually wanted to ride the bus to school but I told him that dad and I wanted to take him to his first day of kindergarten. He was pretty upset with us for taking him and not letting him ride the bus. He soon got over it as we walked into the school. We took him into his classroom, he found his name on the back of his chair and got busy playing with the toys that were on the table. I had to ask him for a hug and to say goodbye to me. As I was saying goodbye to him I got all choked up but I managed to hold back the tears until we walked out of the school. After school he rode the bus home with all the other kids and we waited at the bus stop for him to get off. He looked like such a big boy getting off of the school bus!

I have been crying for weeks about this day. It is so hard to let your kids grow up, you ask yourself, where has the past five years gone?! I am so excited for him to go to school. He is going to learn and grow so much this year! Sam said he had fun today, he learned the rules of this classroom, got to play outside at recess and had a snack. What an exciting year this is going to be for him!
