Our 4th Eagle Scout!

Noah had his Eagle Board of Review tonight and all went well!  He is our 4th Eagle Scout... we 
just have Ethan left to go!
Now we need his Eagle Portrait to hang up with the other boys!!




   Here is Tyler at 13 years old... our youngest Eagle so far!

     Brad finished his Eagle at 16 and Ben finished just before he turned 18!  (Love the sideburns Brad!
He told me I can't say anything about long hair anymore after I let Ben have his beard... But he looks so handsome...don't you think?)



For his project, Noah collected items for the Afghan Orphan Project.  School supplies, backpacks, shoes, clothes and soccer balls.  The Afghan Orphan Project has teamed up with Fedex to ship the items to U.S. Soldiers stationed in Iraq and the Soldiers deliver the items to orphans and needy children.  They love to get soccer balls and Noah was able to collect 25!  We were so grateful to all who were able to help with his project!



 Congratulations Noah!  You worked hard and did a great job!

Disneyland!

Ethan and I were able to fly to California to meet Linda, Jennie, Chad and the kiddo's for a wonderful few days!  (Thanks so much Dad for making this trip possible.  We appreciate it more than you will ever know!)

Disneyland with a some of my favorite people!


Aunt Lisa with Taylor... who knows I think she is perfect in just about every way!







 We all had so much fun watching Levi's excitement... especially to see Buzz Lightyear!
          These cousins have had so many great memories together!  What a blessing!  Here's to many, many more...  Thanks for inviting us for a wonderful few days!
                                                                                                                                                                                    



I will never forget walking in Downtown Disney and seeing the St. Louis Cardinals tie Texas Rangers in the 6th game of the World Series.  Then Chad used his charm to get us a private room in the ESPN Zone for the 10 of us to have a late dinner and watch the extra innings of the game.  It was so fun to see the Cardinals pull it out!  Kate and Levi slept right through our cheering and screaming... I don't think any of us will ever forget that night.  So fun!









One of Ethan's favorite parts of the trip was the plane ride!  He wants to be a pilot someday...
Such a great trip!

"Taming of the Shrew"

Tonight is opening night for Noah!  He is one of the leads in the Lehi Jr. High production of Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew"!   Good luck Noah, break a leg!





Noah has always been a bit "dramatic"... We are proud of him and all his accomplishments and how hard he has worked in the many plays he has had the opportunity to be in!
Here are a few pictures from last years show "Peter Pan"...

Fall in Nebraska

So glad our "Nebraska" family is enjoying the beautiful fall weather!


We are missing you!


"Just before the death of flowers,
And before they are buried in snow,
There comes a festival season
When nature is all aglow."

Such beautiful leaves!


Halloween with best friend Paisley... We love you Kalvin!
