Here are some pix of our cuties.

Talan is making a pretty sweet face after cooling off at the Saint George splash pad. When we ask him, "who made you so cute?" he replies, "Lille." For those of you who do not know, Lille is our Persian kitty.

Maddy is coming out of the water after riding down a slide at one of Sandy's friends house. Maddy loved hanging out with all of her friends from Saint George. She hopes that Dad gets a job there someday, so she can be close to all her friends.

Ryan buddy is donning one of Dad's hats on Pioneer Day in SLC. Doesn't he look so good! One of Ry's favorite things to do is eat Mom's bodies. If you need clarification you will need to ask Sandy or Talan; they can set you straight on what "bodies" really means.

Memories - I have a million of them - How about you?

Memory Lane..I got this from a friend's blog. I thought it would be fun! I hope you will play along. Here are the directions:

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!  You can do it for Spencer, Sandy or both.

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses.

4th of July


This is our 4th of July. We enjoyed some night swimming and ended the evening with the Tolleson fire works display. Talan became quite bored with the whole idea and sat in the car for nearly half of the show. Maddy's favorite part of the day was watching the fireworks. 

Talan and Maddy are getting pretty good at swimming with their floaties on. With the temperatures rising above the 105 mark in Phoenix, the water in the swimming pool was a balmy 90 degrees. The water felt a little like swimming in a hot tub; regardless it was nice to soak in some rays and cool off in the pool. Night swimming was pretty awesome, our friends have a disco ball that is placed in the water and lights up the whole pool. For this being our first 4th of July in Phoenix, it was pretty enjoyable. 

Best Friends Forever

Maddy's friend Taylor came to visit her over the 4th of July weekend. Even though they hadn't seen each other for nearly 2 years, they acted as though they had been spending everyday together. Maddy now wants to have her Dad get an internship site in Utah so she can live by Taylor, Jasmine, Eliza, & Paige.
