fun with grandma & grandpa r
grandma & grandpa R came to visit the kids (and, presumably, us too) from California. we had lots of fun adventures like going to red butte garden (gavin was excited to show grandma and grandpa around), the clark planetarium and the living planet aquarium. gavin was especially excited about grandpa’s new car, complete with sun […]

gavin and lilah have been playing a lot more together for longer periods of time. i snapped these pics when they were being particularly cute together one evening during dinner.
trip to moscow
we took a long road trip with g-ma & g-pa to moscow, idaho to see the kids’ great-grandparents there. it was a two-day drive and the kids were wiped but we were glad we split the drive up rather than try the 11-12 hour trek in one go. the kids had a good time hanging […]

tickets, please
as per usual, the kids have been sick. so imagine my surprise last night when, rather than unhappy wailing, i suddenly heard rambunctious giggling and laughter from the other room the kids were exchanging tickets (puzzle pieces) for a chance to ride on the slide (large armchair) this was being done as a solo activity […]
