Is that not the cutest kid?

What does a guy have to do to get a little privacy around here?

Hey everyone-
So i'm glad someone still writes on this family blog!!!! :) I thought you all would enjoy the top photo-we went to Great Basin National Park for his family reunion last weekend. Glen & I took a group of kids for a ride up the mountain and were playin kickball in this meadow when this little buck came out and just ate around us for 10-15 minutes. It was really neat. So of course we're snapping all this picts trying to get a good one.. and couldn't stop just cuz he decided to take a bathroom break in the middle of the photo shoot :)... The little girls we took all thought it was hilarious. The one pict is Lehman's Cave and all the others were just in that meadow where we saw the buck. Glen was very impressed by the tree root that were standing on to take our family pict..
All is well here. Kids are doing good. Hayli is dramatic, Lincoln is a bully but??? Hopefully they'll grow out of Glen's qualities. He just got his final offer letter in the mail today-telling him all the equiptment, uniforms, boot, gun... stuff the city is going to give him money to go buy-so of course he's so excited. Early Christmas for him..
We're doing good-hope everyone else is too
Corri how was first couple days of school?
Seth how was work?
Cindy how you feeling?
CM how's the boys? And the training coming? Are you a swimmer yet?
Love you guys.
