A time of firsts...

Here are some pictures of the kids, first day of school, and Joshua on his brand-new birthday bike--his first "2 wheeler" if you don't count training wheels...

Alberta Bound

Glimpses of Alberta albeit through the window of the car. Still, I think it's a pretty amazing place. I've always known (but didn't realize how much) I miss it! These pictures are very rural, but that's the great thing about it, once you leave the city, you feel like you're the only one in the world!

On the way up to Calgary I had a layover in Denver. In the airport there was this random statue of Captin Jack Swigert--from Apollo 13. How great is that?

The Alberta cousins reunited

My Missionary

My cousin Mark is the first person EVER to go on a mission in my family! I flew up to Alberta for the weekend to help support my missionary. Mark you are so awesome, we love you!
