Some Random pics as Fall approaches

So we took a trip around the Alpine Loop to check out the changing leaves. A nice start. It was also one of the rare times Allie actually fell asleep in the van. And she was out of it. Andrew attempting to wake her up, peeled her eyelid open and it would just flop shut, with no regard to the waking persuasion. It made us all laugh, which I am sure would not be funny to Allie, but like I said, she was totally out of it.



Had a couple outing with Allie. The girl insisted on learning chopsticks, and surprisingly she was able to eat. At another place she took Grandpa's glasses hostage, which she thought was hilarious. We thought it was funny as well.

Oh yes, Emma's Asthma. She had been coughing for weeks, and was starting to get really wheezy, so we were like fine, we will take you in to the doctor , only to have the doctor refuse her release until she had had several breathing treatments. How were we supposed to know? I never had Asthma! We are good parents, I promise! But after getting all sorts of things from the doctor, she recovered just fine. At least now we know, and knowing is half the battle.

Haha, okay, Allie has discovered "Piggyback" rides and is relentless in getting her way. Plus she has found ways to alter the concept to her advantage in many ways. At least she was cleaning up.

And just a few random pics to finish it off.

Allie converted her leg warmers to Arm warmers. Nice look.

End of Summer, and School Begins

Here are just a few pics from the first day of school, plus some other random last minute summer pictures.

One Last Summer Getaway

So, in a final attempt to do some summer fun, I took some time off in the middle of August, just before the kids started school. Ogden here we come! Okay, in this case, it really was not the destination that was the main goal, but the journey. We wanted to take the kids on the Frontrunner train, so we jumped aboard, and wend exploring Ogden.

Ogden actually had some pretty cool trains on display, so we wandered around looking at some of those. The find of the day was the 2 bit street cafe. Really had a nice home-made feel to the food. Plus I had an "iron-port" drink which I guess was an old fashion type of drink, which tasted dee-lish.

It was a good time.

A few photos with "Anna Janna"

Since Georgiana was moving away for a (SHORT) while, we wanted to take a few pictures of her with the kids. Here are just a few, with more on my photography Blog.
