Our last pictures

Leslie braves the diving board

Leslie has loved her swimming lessons. Her teacher calls her the "Backstroke Queen."

Two Views

From the backyard at Bear Lake to the backyard here at home.

Twice Birthday

To the delight of the kidsters, we celebrated Russell's birthday with the Larsons and the Ivies.

Most antelope we've ever seen near Woodruff

Driving back from Bear Lake

The people in the backseat decided to have a widest mouth contest.

Sabrina's dramatic concerto

Sabrina likes to make impressive dramatic faces when she bangs on the low notes of the piano.

At the beach

I realized this is the first year we didn't get pictures of the kids in their swimsuits in the water. We're just too acclimated to the AZ desert to enjoy 38 degree water as much as we used to!

Tired out

After a long day at the lake, the children finally fell asleep--in our bed.

Goslings

I'm impressed with this picture Russell took from inside the Bear Lake cabin.

Frog Catching

Driving to Bear Lake

Rest stop at Echo reservoir

Teetering with the Dixons

BonnicanErie's awesome teetertotter.

Chasing Sabrina

Sabrinas can reach speeds of up to 30 miles per hour in the wild.

A bit cold

Sabrina in the woods

These are the sorts of pictures you get when you wake a child at 5:00am, put her on a plane, fly for a couple hours, then take pictures after nap but before dinner. Not too bad, all things considered.

English countryside

This was out of a daydream--to have the girls in beautiful dresses wandering the woods, and me with a camera.
