1st Day of School

Taylor and Brayden began their first day of the 07-08 school year at Trail Wind Elementary today.


The first day of school is always bittersweet. I'm excited for the boys to start a new year but a little sad to see my babies grow up so fast.

Taylor starts the third grade with Mrs. Bushee and Brayden begins the 1st grade with Mrs. Sly.

Emmett's Most Excellent Triathlon

Tol participated in his first "sprint" triathlon on Saturday August 11, 2007 in Emmett Idaho with his good friend Nathan Williams. They were able to finish the race together placing 25th and 26th overall (out of 121) (Results) and 4th and 5th in their age group...not too bad for a couple of first timers! The Boys made signs to cheer Dad on!
"Thumbs up on the signs".
