We need to make hats like these in Priesthood.
We went to Hogle Zoo and saw some very cool stuff.
Rylee had been asking about the snakes all day. So we went to find them.
My Curly Sue waits on a nice rock while Janna and Adrian swim in the ridiculously cold water at Deer Creek Reservoir.
Lauren kept telling me she was "Dr. Clawson" (her pediatrician). We were applying medicine to Rylees feet. Our Doctor sessions at home are much more creative than the real thing. And they are free.
They rented these high powered wetsuits for the race. 
Janna felt like the swim didn't go well, but she performed excellent on the bike and the run.
This is where Janna is the strongest. She always does well on the run.
Best part of the race. . . the finish line.
Rylee received her first gymnastics recital medal. She is very proud of it.
Lauren took care of Rylee during the recital lineup afterwards. 
Grandma & Grandpa Call made the trip to Ogden just to see the girls.
This morning as I was getting the girls ready for church, I can't remember how but we all ended up in the storage room downstairs. The big bags make a perfect seat. Lauren was teaching Rylee about the Prophet from the picture in her Book of Mormon. Getting the girls dressed is the extent of my abilities, I'm not good at doing hair and they remind me often.
But dad, I don't want to take a nap - I'm not tired. . .If you have chips in your mouth and try to say words such as: Tarantula, Nebula, Ambulance, and marshmallow, what does it sound like? This video was taken right around Christmas 2007, I found it last night as I was browsing through my video files - this is what we do when mom's not around. Stay up late, eat chips, say "Nebula," then wrestle. It's funny until the next day when Janna asks me, "How late were the girls up last night?" . . .
Janna took this picture, I don't know anything about it. But I sure love my girls!!
This is where Rylee normally spends a few minutes in the morning after she wakes up - in front of the heater vent, wrapped in her blanket on the kitchen floor eating a piece of toast with Nutella spread on it. Here is where she wakes up.
It's April, but we have had a few days of great weather. - it's on these days that Janna will always be found tending to her garden boxes. Rylee was taking a nap at the time, but she loves to get her fingers dirty too.
I took this picture earlier today. The girls discovered Janna's foot spa and spent a lot of time satisfying all points of curiosity.
Is this picture worth more than life itself? This is Dallin. I found this picture while digging through my archives - I couldn't resist. This is Lauren & Rylee's cousin (Laurie & Tim).
This picture demands explanation. That's Aaron bent over the flight receptionists desk. This was taken on our way to New Mexico for my grandmothers funeral. When I handed my license to the lady, she dropped it and it fell behind her monitor into a small opening and down into a locked bin underneath. At one point Aarons feet were sticking straight up in the air, it was awesome. We took turns digging until we found it. They flew us first class for the trouble.
Here's another shot from my archive. Far left is me and Aaron, Jeni, Janna, Lindsey. I think Adam took the picture. Camping in Cottonwood canyon near Salt Lake City. This tree had uprooted and fallen because there was a small stream flowing nearby and it had no roots deeper than 3 or 4 inches. When a big windstorm passed through, it had no foundation and fell. I reflect on this experience often.
Lauren's third birthday, July '07. She loves uncle Adam, so does Rylee now too. This is a salute to him - what a stud.
Lauren & cousin Annie pose during our trip to Bear Lake, I think this trip was during summer '06.
Summer 2007: Brent, Dad, Aaron, Craig, and myself went Disk Golfing. I don't recall if Brent found the disk that landed in this ravine, but he did find a cell phone.
This looks like the parking lot by the Country Club tennis courts in Leesville. That is Lauren on dad's shoulders. I don't remember when I took this, but what a great photo.
Lauren & Seth. I believe this was taken in Craig & Jordan's old apartment in Metarie.
This is a shot from our dating days at Ricks College, in Rexburg, Idaho. I'm betting this photo was taken in the fall(?) of 1996. The quality of the photo is questionable, but the content brings back a lot of memories. I invited Janna over for dinner and a soccer match one night. I don't think the dinner was very good, but our soccer match in front of my apartments was memorable.
Here's a winner. We found dad out in the backyard riding the mower cutting the grass. We decided to take some shots at him with a water balloon launcher. As I remember, we hit the mower but didn't quite get dad as he was hiding behind skinny trees. Dallin & Taylor are in the background behind Brent.
This picture of Lauren was taken at the zoo in Baton Rouge(?) She was almost three at the time.
Our snow has finally melted and we are beginning to enjoy random stretches of sunshine throughout the week. Lauren informed me recently that Spring-time is her favorite.
Rylee loves her tricycle. She has figured out how to work the pedals now, although she still prefers riding "FlintStone" style at times.
We decided to throw all the couch cushions on the living room floor and read stories there one night. I think these cushions spend more time on the floor than on the couch.
These girls love their tunnel system. I wish I could fit too, every time I try I get into trouble because I'm "too big."
