Paul is getting pretty good on the
wakeboard.
Kinlyn just wanted to swim so Paul
went out in the water with her.

We got to see Grandma off at the airport. She was off to the MTC on July 19th. We will miss you like crazy, but always support you in all that you do. What a great example she is to our family.
Brian and Jennifer were able to come down to Arizona to visit with us in July. It was so much fun to spend time with their family. They are truly missed when they aren't here. Kinlyn is still talking about how beautiful the girls are.
