Some of my Favorites

Laurie readily posed for this photo exactly after instructed not to take pictures in the building. See if you can figure out what building it's in. . . Janna (pregnant with Lauren), Jeni, Mark, Craig, & Aaron came to take a look at the progress on our home before it was finished. Dad snowboards!!! Aaron digs in the "Black Hole of trash" behind the computer terminal to find my drivers license after the lady accidently dropped it in there when picking it up. We both took turns digging for about 20 minutes, it was awesome. This was when we were flying to New Mexico for to attend Grandma's funeral. America West flew us in First Class that day!!! We posed with Tim & Laurie's family in the Grandin Printing Press where the Book of Mormon was first published. Tim & Laurie took us to New York to see Hill Cumorah, the Sacred Grove, Joseph Smith home, and more church history places.

Dandelions, Dishwashers, Fairy Tales & Guitar

Rylee & Lauren at the park blowing Dandelions. We are thankful every night in our prayers for Dandelions. . . . Going for a creative hallway stroll in the dishwasher rack. Kara, Kimberly, Lauren, and Janna went to the Fairy Tale Ball. Mark plugs in after a day at work.

The Call Side of Things

Grandpa Call & Lauren enjoy a moment together. The three "Sons." Adam, Mark, & Collin. The three of us have a great time together, these guys are truly my brothers. Marrying Call girls was definitely the way to go. Sharon & John treated us all to a day of boating on Bear Lake. Adrian and Jane the Magnificent, Great Grandma Call. Annie, Lauren, and Sam, the source of havoc.

Grandma Pat.

We met Grandma at the park the other day, it was a very fun reunion. We flew kites, kicked the soccer ball, hunted for bugs, threw sticks in the river, and got sand between our toes in the park. When we got home, we had laundry basket races up & down the hallway.

Trees & Boogers

Is it normal for kids to enjoy having their nasals sucked out with the bulb syringe? Normal curiosity perhaps, or does it just make you feel big? She also does it to her bear.

Fun Times Together

Lauren the gymnast. Rylee's Easter egg hunt. Cookie tin races down the hallway. For our Family Night activity this week, we hooked Lauren up to a kite string and watched as she floated across the park.

My Girls

I have three girls that I am just nuts about. Story time at night with Lauren and Rylee is the crowning event of the day. Rylee is content to watch the story from my chest, and Lauren is so full of questions and wants to know why everything is the way it is. Lauren and Rylee have become an inseparable two-some. There is a connection there described only by words beyond the scope of a blog. And Janna is truly amazing, sincerely my best friend. She runs, reads her scriptures, creative, adventurous, she loves me, and she even plays in the sandbox.

Good Company

Taken 4/15/2007. What a cool family

Soccer is a form of art. In our family we play often.
I have played indoor soccer for the last 8 years on and off and I enjoy every minute of it. I am now coaching a recreational coed team, ages 16-19. It's fun, maybe someday I will try it at a competitive level. If you don't like soccer, something is wrong with you. Gecko's too.
