We are working on the finishing touches of getting our yard ready for sod this weekend....it has been a long, tough, LLLLOOONNNGGG road. Morgan volunteered to ride behind the Rino (thanks Tom). I think she's a little crazy, but she has fun!</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This summer we have spent most of our time getting our yard done. We have tilled, graded, smoothed, raked, and poured curbing till our fingers bled... literally. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Brayden has been very adamant that he always wear a zipper tie (one he doesn't have to tie himself... it just zips up). Zipper ties are great when kids are young and have a hard time tying their ties themselves... but Brayden needed to enter the world of big boy ties! Both of our boys brought so many ties home from their missions that we have an endless selection of ties at our house.. Sometimes Russ even borrows one! A couple of months ago it was time for Brayden to really learn how to tie his own tie (what can I say... I'm a slacker!). It took a couple of tries at the bathroom mirror with dad... but he got it down!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> We got to spend the first week of June at Moon Lake! It is such a pretty place and the campground has been under construction...so we hadn't been in a few years, but being there brought back to mind the reasons that we try to go there each year!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">January was filled with lots of trips to the dentist. Our family is big enough that they won't let us come all at once! Sooo between check-ups and fillings and cracked teeth and all that 2 crowns entail...we made 5 or 6 trip to the dentist in January! Good thing they had headphones and a ceiling mounted T.V. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Russ and Megan had some hunting tags to fill and it started out fairly well.... they did tons of hiking... but with the sickness' that visited our home towards the end of Jan... they didn't fill their tags. I was trying to take a before and after picture... each time they came home they looked so tired and worn out and sunburned, but I didn't get the after photo taken.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">February started out great! We finally decided on a car and got a new one (after 4 years of looking and waiting till we didn't have a missionary out) We also went to the Logan temple to do temple work with Meg, Brayden, Morgan and Zack. We spent a great day in Logan and even had the sister missionaries eat lunch with us!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Each year while we were growing up we got to go to Grandma Thomson's house and decorate gingerbread houses. It was a fun tradition and one I remember fondly. Well this year our kids decorated one gingerbread house... Grandma used to have one for each of us! I think they did a great job.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">This picture is too funny... but all too true! It has been over two years since Zack has been home with his serving a LDS mission for our church and then going right up to school. We have seen him for a weekend here and there, but nothing like these three weeks! It has been great to have him home! Brayden has been joined at the hip with him (thus the appropriate picture). They have played games, built models and watched movies to their hearts content! I'm afraid that Brayden will be a little lost puppy when Zack heads back to school next week! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Here are a few more picts of the kitchen... I need to take a close up of the backsplash...it's my favorite part! We used a lantern tile from Homedepot.com and it is one of the first things that I bought for the house! It wasn't fun to install... but I have access to a fabulous handyman that comes dirt cheap! :)</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">This is my office wall. It definitely turned into a labor of love (maybe not) I do LOVE how it turned out but it definitely was not fun to caulk and spackle all of the extra trim in the house.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Long story short... the table with my big glass cloche on the stand got kicked and it fell and broke on the table and then fell onto Brayden which he caught most of the broken pieces with his face!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">After our trip to the ER. It is so nice to have the new ER close to our neighborhood! We have used it twice in the last month! He will most likely have to see a plastic surgeon in 6 months. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We got to try out the new ER that just got finished. Russ got a big sliver in his arm and the Dr. had to extend the opening another inch to get the sucker out! It has healed fairly nicely now! The sliver had broken off into the fatty tissue.... we knew it was at least a 1/2 inch long chunk in there so we went to the Doctors.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Best garage sale find ever! I had seen something sort of like this on pinterest. I got my windows for $15 total... they are big and it stands about 5 feet tall. We put it together in about 15 minutes. The gate is one from my dad's shop! It fit perfectly... now I just need to figure out where I want it and make it so the gate can swing!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">A couple of weeks ago we needed to be down early for a farewell talk and then later for FHE. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We decided to go to the LDS conference center and take a tour while we waited for Meg and Catie to catch up with us.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We then toured the temple grounds after they got there. I LOVE this picture of Ben and Catie. It was what happened after I told them to kiss in front of the temple. I don't know if they did...but I like this picture even better!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Morgan took this picture of the Salt Lake temple. So pretty with all the flowers! (She laid down on the sidewalk to get the angle!) I highly suggest taking a day and going while it is sooo pretty!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We usually try to get to the temple and take a few pictures that the kids can have in their rooms. The first is taken at temple square... you kinda have to be upside down to get the shot... but they turn out great.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">This second one is on the roof of the LDS Conference center... Which one do you like best? (Not counting Brayden's goofy smile) The conference center tour was definitely worth going just to see all the original art work that is there!</span></div>
