September 11th

On September 11th Lyle and I took the kids to a National Guard street fair by Deer Valley Airport. One of the guys that Lyle worked with is in the National Guard and invited us.

The kids had fun playing on the Helicopter and riding in the fake boat. It was a great trip for the family.

Our Little Campaign Manager

Josie was a campaign manager for one of her friends during Student Council elections. This was the poster that she put together. I thought she did a good job. I like the voting booth in the first picture.

What the HAIL!

Arizona got not just one but two weird hail storms in a 5 hour time. The first one came at 12:30 pm and had pea size hail, but a lot of it. The second storm came at 5 pm and had golf ball size hail. This one did the most damage. My older kids were still on the bus and I was very happy when they finally made it home. We didn't get too much damage other than one window on the house, both passenger side mirrors on both cars, some running lights on Lyle's truck, and our ADT sign.
This is a picture of the first storm. I scooped up some hail to show the kids later, but they were able to witness it first hand on the way home from school.

It caused a lot of damage to a lot of people but I still enjoyed the storm.

Time Out!

Anna was using a box for a table to take notes during Conference. William decided to sit on the box and fell through. After calming him down he picked-up the box, told it that it was "a bad boy" and "Time Out!" He then picked it up and set it in our time-out place. Then he came to me and told me, "Box, bad boy. Time out!" After a couple of minutes he went back and took it out of time out.


I can aways count on William to give me laughs!
