On the Road again...

Sooo, after the funeral and a few days in Mesa, we headed back to Star Valley Wyoming by way of Salt Lake City. It was a long drive (due to fires that closed I-15) but we made it just in time for swimming lessons to begin!

Brady, Reese, Dallin and Garrett all had swimming lessons at the same pool. They had a GREAT time and learned so much! (Brady and his class of 3 swimmers)

Sadly to say Garrett was the trouble-maker of his class. He enjoyed lessons so much he just couldn't sit still. He had a hard time listening because he wanted to swim! But, I think he made up for it at the end of each lesson. While telling his teachers "thank you" and "goodbye" he would always add "I love you!!" I think they forgave him after that.

Garrett's class is at the bottom of the picture (4 students) and Dallin's class at the top-he's the one with his back to the picture and red hair. Only 5 students in his class...wow! Lots of individual attention!


This is the view from my sister's back porch looking at the home of their super neighbors the Sims.


One of the BEST things about sharing a back yard with good friends is the community playground that developed! The kids spent hours playing in the pool, jumping on the trampoling, swinging, digging in the sand AND organizing football games on the HUGE lawn.

*Sigh* sure do wish we could have spent all summer there....but I think we would have worn out our welcome!

Thanks Kelly and Gina for letting us spend such a wonderful couple of weeks!!
