He Talks!!

You know it's time for a hair cut when your sister starts doing this to your hair in the bath. . . .

This is how his face looks the entire hair cut, stoic.

And now some words from our Tyler . . .

One Hot Week!

We stayed an extra week in Utah after the Williams Reunion (See Below) to spend some time with the Lyman side.  It was SO hot for us poor Oregonians but we still had a great time.

The kids love to practice songs and put on shows for everyone.  The shows seem to be getting better and better every time we're together :)

My parents just re-landscaped their back yard and I was so impressed that I had to include this picture.  It's the perfect yard for a hot dry summer.

Tyler loves his Grandpa!

Tyler and Carson were pretty good buddies as long as they each had something the other didn't want.

We spent one day out at Thistle and had this unexpected visitor at our picnic spot.  Yes, it's a rattler!

This is the way to stay cool on a hundred degree day; sit in an ice cold stream for about 30 minutes and you're good to go.

Williams Reunion

We started out our week by hiking the Y in Provo with the Dalton family.  We got kind of a late start so it was very HOT!  We did make it though.  Here is the proof. . .



Tyler took a lot of naps in the car during our two weeks in Utah.  You know he's tired when his hands go up behind his head like this.

This is at the Bonneville Copper Mines visitor center.  Tyler would have loved to get his hands on all this machinery if there wasn't glass between him and them.

We spent one afternoon looking around temple square.

And one day at an indoor trampoline place.  Very fun!
