Softer Side of Football

Jon must be softening up lately. He's let the girls come to the football games the last two weeks. Don't they add something beautiful to an otherwise rough and sweaty game?

Fun Times

Aunt Verona and I had a busy weekend. She taught me the finer points of the New Family Search and we have lots of names ready to submit. We even divided up the work and she is going to work on the Van Galen lines and get them ready.

up and down, back and forth, here and there

As we travel up and down the I-15 highway this summer we run into the nicest people.
Here we are enjoying a visit from Jodi and sons. Kade is trying his hand at watercolor in Grandpa's studio.

We stopped in Cedar and found Zach and Ellie enjoying a computer game

Sam and Josh enjoying the sandbox.

Josh, Emma and Ellie are watching Grandpa paint at Thanksgiving Point.
The next day (sorry no pictures) I got to attend Kelsey and Keanon's soccer games

Of course, Grandpa was in town for the BYU game and had Kayson, Alyssa, Christian
and Travis (not pictured) there with him. Alyssa brought a new dimension to their
game watching - she was interested in the cheerleaders.

We took a little side trip this weekend and got to see Jon's family. Here they are showing off their newest family member - Lizzie the Puppy.
We love our family and are glad we get to see them as we travel back and forth.
