Get well soon Adam!

Ouch!
Adam was in the bike portion of his triathlon this last Saturday and ended up hitting a pot hole, which lead to him going over the handle bars of his bike! He ended up with a broken collar bone, some major road rash on his right hip, arm and shoulder and a cut on his forehead! And his bike ended up a good 50 ft down the road! The road rash is healing well! Hopefully his collar bone will be healed in time for the wedding in 3 1/2 weeks!
We love you Adam!

Taylie's first day of Kindergarten!

Kinda crazy that Taylie is starting Kindergarten!
She picked out her own outfit...even the bow!
Look at that fake smile!


She went for her first day on Monday, which was basically orientation. She will go in tomorrow, Wednesday, for her assessment testing and school officially starts for her next week on Tues!

Billy and Hyrum came to play!


The boys called to see if they could come play with Taylie and Sage and they ended up chasing bugs around the yard with the kids!
Somebody has to keep Mason's friends occupied while he is on his misson!

Relaxing on the porch swing eating Popsicles!

Salute to you Dad!


WE LOVE YOU!

Family Update!

A quick update on what we have all been up to!

Aaron has joined the Air Force and currently is attending tech. school at Sheppard AFB in Wichita Falls, TX.


After he has completed his training we are moving to Shaw AFB in Sumter, South Carolina which is a 50 min drive east of Columbia and a 2 hours 20 min drive west of Myrtle Beach!



Although Aaron hasn't been sold on the idea of living away from the mountains and in the heat and humidity that South Carolina has to offer I am looking forward to and so excited for this opportunity! I am sure once we get there and Aaron has the opportunity to golf he too will be excited!


As for Taylie and Sage, they seem excited to move "close to the beach!" However, are unaware of how long a 2 hour 20 min drive really is. Although after driving to Texas from Utah on 2 separate occasions so far to visit daddy has seemed to make a 2 hours trip in the car seem so simple! I am sure that they also have yet to grasp that we are going to be living so far away from family and friends.



As for our trips to Texas...so far!

I flew down to Lackland AFB in San Antonio, TX in May to see Aaron graduate from BMT and become an Airman! What an amazing opportunity to see the process of the graduation! Aaron was just excited that, that portion of his training was over! During Aaron's base leave we were able to go to The River Walk and The Alamo, two things I probably never would have gone to see otherwise and am glad to say now that I've checked off of the list of things to do...even though they were never really on my list of desired destinations to begin with.


Two weeks and 4 days later the kids and I drove down to Sheppard AFB to stay with Aaron for 6 days. Of which we celebrated Taylie's birthday on June 12th, Father's Day on June 15th and Sage's Birthday on June 16th!




Our next visit would come 5 weeks and 4 days later! We came home just this past Tues. after spending 18 days in heat that I never imagined possible! Put the heat aside and I had an awesome opportunity to spend time with my husband and the kids their father!






So this is my second attempt at starting a blog and so far I have got farther than I ever did on the first one!
