And thats the way the cookie crumbles... for everyone right?!?

Hotsprings, weddings, birthdays, meetings, working overtime, training 6 RN's, climbing the tallest mountain in IDaho, hope we can catch the fair, i almost forgot about visiting teaching and my best friend in the whole wide world is getting married and my husband took me cliff jumping again!!!!!

And there goes summer...

Goodbye.

Its sad when a child leaves us, but its wonderful the time we had with them on earth. For me, I am glad I had the chance to care, and hopefully leave an impact of love.

Sleep in peace Breana.

Bombardation!

I think I made up the word Bombardation, but my definition is a butt-load of pictures. Come on, who doesn't love pictures?

Its been a busy summer, but I have to stroke my own pony here and say well done to all we accomplished before August!
Beautiful Seattle

The Kirkland tradition, Spuds famous Fish and Chips, DE-LISH!


We had a ball at the Science center, especially with the camera that distorts your images...

Above: movie poster... Below: ???....

Callie and Michael Jackson???...

Mausoleum on the San Juans

Blake dancing on their graves...

Off to Buffalo Wild Wings and Blake and Brian HAD to do the Blazin challenge, good job boys!

We are normal so we had salads.

I love this, little Esme and her favorite uncle.

Cooling off at our business trip in Portland, me and my diamond gals!

And one of my favorite things we have done so far, a night Canoe ride!

Hopefully Kira will post her pictures of us on the river so I can steal them (:

Radical, I know.

After a life changing weekend, the TV is out, for a whole week.

We've been going over our daily habits, what we want to accomplish daily, and our biggest time wasters... and can you take a guess at what we wasted literally hours a day doing? Yep watching TV. Monday was hard ... but its Thursday and I cant believe how much we have accomplished this week, and how it feels like we have more time!

Time for:

daily scriptures and prayers

running 4 miles a day with Blake for his marathon

building an incredible Eagle business

and enjoying every moment we spend together!

radical, i know, but oh so worth it.

There's nothing like a good ol' ball game...

Beginners Co-Ed bracket... needless to say we werent champions by any means, but it was sure fun being on the team!

Suprisingly relaxed now that the season is over, pictures of the San Juan islands to come! (:

Think Big, Dream even Bigger, but don't forget to fish and hang out with your pals!

Grrr!!!!! This is our game face, our "we are ready to kick butt" face! We have several businesses running succesfully right now, and we couldnt be more excited! We are meeting all our challenges with smiles on our faces! ... well, most the time (: Our Satellite and advertising businesses are going very well, we even had another record month for June!

My hours for Progressive have been really competitive, and I wont be permanently full time for a few more weeks so in the mean time, Blake has helped me start a private franchise!

We had our Boise Grand Opening a few weeks ago at the Ameritel Inn and it was very successful!

We have household products...

Cleaning products...

Beauty products, Artistry is my favorite!!!

This is my good friend Notto Jensen, teaching guests about our franchise.

Some of our best products are bottled Perfect Water and the XS energy drink!

I was really happy with how it all went, thanks for all who came to support us! Feel free to browse my website: www.summerallyearlong.mychoics.biz.


And dont forget to relax...

We have all the tackle ever invented, a raft, waders, and still no fish!!!!!! Wow are we really that untalented at Fishing?





and dont forget your besties!

We caught a Boise Burns game with our friends Brian and Clarisa, gotta love summer sports! (:

June Showers bring graduations and fishing?

Congrats Callie !!! Way to finish High School! I heard that place is rough! (:

Living in Boise I have never owned a raincoat or umbrella... but after the last two weeks I am seriously considering in investing in one for the first time! What is the deal?

Anyways, Spring has already brought plenty of rain, plenty rain during camping, plenty during our softball games, but none for Callies recital, graduation or fishing!!!

Whoa, what happened to your feet?

Callie the super star with Karen Call, who was also my voice coach.

Support from the friendlys.

We were really excited for Callie.

Really.

Its a beautiful time for fishing... if only there werent 3 zillion other people trying to fish as well. We went with our buds Noah and Sierra... and things stared off a little rocky. Here Noah is trying to get his line out of the tree.

Noah waiting for a bite that never came.

Blake was the funniest, his line got caught in one tree, and he yanked it so hard it swung over and got caught in a different tree.

Well even though all of us got our lines caught in trees at least once, and nobody got a single bite, and the old guy across the pond kept laughing and making fun of us, we never hooked a finger or appendage, and we still had a lot of fun!

Better luck next time I suppose!
