It's High Time...

for an update.

Not much exciting news here, but we've certainly been enjoying the craziness we call summer. We've had fun filling our days with lots of sun and lots of water. Lydia is usually dying ot get in the pool by about 10am every day. She absolutely LOVES it!

Other exciting things we've been doing or thinking about lately...

-RUN, BIKE, SWIM...we are "in training" for our first "try"athlon and boy is it consuming. Gary has even decided that he needs 7000 calories a day to sustain himself during this very strenuous activity. I told him he might be 300 lbs. before it's over...in seriousness, it has been a lot of fun and we've had a blast with our team!
-SEW WHAT? Um, blankets and stuff. Thanks to my good friends Sundie and Cristy for helping me dust off and put to use the sewing machine I got five years ago, I've had fun a making some baby gifts for friends and family.
-PARTY CENTRAL...I hosted a work party and a big SUU alumn get together over the last couple weeks and Gary has now declared August to be a party-free month at our house (with the exception of Lydi's #2- of course...I hope!?!)

Stay tuned for some photos of our summer fun!
