Firsts

A weekend of firsts--our first trip to an air show. Jaydn's first time riding his bike without training wheels! And my first full-out run (in church clothes) home from church next to Jaydn while he gets more riding experience. And, accordingly, my first heavy Idaho sweat after attending church meetings.

My first trimming of the edges on the grass in the front yard on our new house. My first use of almost all of the trimming cord in one day of trimming.

Like you really wanted to know all that.

Fishing

On Saturday we went to the free fishing day at Freeman Park with Grandpa Grigg.
It was cold, and no fish were caught, but we had a good time.

What is up with this crazy Idaho June anyway? Will we ever have summer?

I'm spoiled from living a year in AS.

They're Engaged!


Angela and Jey are engaged!!!
