Long Overdue...

I'm not sure if I have mentioned it, yet, but Andy started graduate school last month.  He is doing the same program that I graduated from and is, so far, really enjoying it.  So...I usually don't make excuses, but that is my excuse for lack of blogging lately.  I am still trying to find that balance of having the girls, making dinner, playing with the girls, nightly baths, getting the girls to bed, keeping the sink from overflowing with dirty dishes, emptying the dishwasher, keeping the dog hair at bay, giving Andy time to get his homework done in a semi-quiet house, exercising, keeping in contact with my family, and maintaining my sanity.  Did I forget anything?  I will get there, eventually.

On to the fun stuff (and the real reason you are visiting our blog)...


We hiked the summit of Summit Park with Nana.




We watch Ben's dog, Sarah, while he is up on the slope.  She likes to cuddle much more than Cooper.

Miner's Day (aka Labor Day) in Park City:  the annual Running of the Balls,

fun at the parade,

on our way to City Park to play games and listen to music

fun at Papa and Grandma Terry's house




Family fun at Wheeler Farm:  farm-fresh breakfast,

petting zoo, 




playground fun, 

and pony rides.

 And, of course, Saturday morning (9:00 a.m.) soccer games...

Soccer Star

We signed Emma up for a week long soccer camp this summer.  She loved it so much (it probably helped that 2 of her very good friends from school were in it, too) she wanted to play this fall again.  Her team's name is the Rainbow Dolphins.  (The girls came up with that one.)

Coming up with a team name...









Getting ready to shake the other teams' hands...
