Andee's FHE Lesson

For Andee's FHE lesson, he taught us how to check the oil, tire pressure, and wiper fluid in Hannah's car. Caitlin is checking the oil, while Hannah bursts out in laughter, Amanda takes a refreshing sip, and Andee supervises.
Mom is busy opening a new toy for her new companion Lord Barkley. Mom also commented that this dog is not part of our family, yet she continues to attempt to teach it new tricks.
Andee shows Cowgirl Caitlin how to fill a tire with air.

The Producers

Saturday we found out that we could get FREE tickets to the Producers through the teachers union! So . . . with mom and dad being in the employ of dear ol' CCSD and having Amanda as the newest teacher in the family we were all able to go! My only regret is that we didn't get to "Hassel the Hoff" but we did get to "Dazzle the Danza!"

Here is my attempt on making Kendra smile for the camera.

Mom's new dog

This is Bailey, a.k.a. Lord Barkley. Caitlin came home from school last Friday (9/21/07) and found her in the backyard. Nobody knew why there was a strange dog running around with the others. Finally, someone got ahold of Mom and she said that she had been left at her school and so Mom decided to take her home. Mom also said that she forgotten to mention it to anyone. For FHE we put flyers up around the neighborhood where she was found, but nobody has called about her. Mom learned this week that Bailey does tricks: she sits, fetches, and rolls over. It seems that she has become a permanent fixture in the household.

Yellowstone Trip

Our family went to Yellowstone in August. Here are some favorite memories.

Our first night there we played a game at the cabin called "Urban Myths." This is what Kendra thought of it.
Dad and Hannah re-enact mom's infamous "Bite Me" episode in which she welcomed an Asian man into our country. The incident earned her the nickname "Scrappy Doo."
The trip on Satan's River. The experience was exactly like it sounds.
We had problems with keeing everyone's eyes open for pictures, so for this shot we all decided to close them!

Booger

Hi guys! Thanks Jamie for setting this up! I'm actually at school right now so don't have any pics or stuff from home. Just to let you know that I'm thoroughly enjoying football, and getting slaughtered each week. Being 1-5 is soooo much fun, and parents make it even better.
I went to my cardiologist this week, and the picture pretty well sums up how that went.
I love the pics that everyone has posted, and I really like this idea.
See ya later!

Swim Time!

Just loving my glasses that Aunt Amanda got me! I admit I didn't think she would like them but they were a good buy.

San Francisco

Andee and I went to San Francisco for our 5th anniversary!

Ruby

We (Andee and Amanda) have a puppy named Ruby. Here are some pictures of her, one of when she was a tiny puppy and one of her dominating Dobby!

Bo-sox fans!

The seats we had were great, right down the line.

Lake Mead Invite!

This weekend was our Laughlin Invitational, and we had lots of fun. It was 3.1 miles and it was raining the whole time. I don't have many pictures of me racing in that race, but I do have this one from the Lake Mead Invitational.Kelsey and I had just finished our race, and once our bus left the park, we saw about 25 big horn sheep. It was an awesome day!

Bundled up!

We went on a walk to the park yesterday! Kendra really enjoyed going down the slides with dad and mom! We had fun on the swings too!
