Tess Wants to Walk

When you have your first child you can't wait for all their milestones and you help and encourage them on the way. By the time you get to the fifth child you have experienced all the destruction and mayhem that a toddler can create so your attitude and excitement have changed just a little. We haven't encouraged Tess to walk because she is ambitious and the time will come soon enough. She is also going to be a really cute and destructive toddler. Despite our attempts to slow her down she has decided it is time to learn to walk. She is such a cute little pill.

Brooksby's Visit Cedar City

Richard and Amy traveled from Kansas to visit both Amy and Richard's family this last week. Brenda and Craig drove to Oregon and then to Utah to see Richard and Amy and the rest of their kids. They eventually ended up here in Cedar City for a few days and we had fun visiting. We have gone to the cabin, played cards into the wee hours of the morning, watched movies, and last night we got a baby sitter and went to see Fiddler on the Roof at the Shakespearean Festival.

A few more pictures of the kids swimming at Navajo Lake. They love going up the mountain to the cabin to swim, have lunch, and spend the night occasionally.
