About Us

Andy and I met on a blind date in Dec. 2005. One of my 7th grade students was his neice, and she set us up. Go figure. We saw each other every day after that! We were engaged by June and married in September of 2006. In January, 2008, we welcomed little Ethan into our home, and in August, 2010, little Addison arrived.

Andy is a diesel mechanic at Kennecott. I taught middle school science for ten years, and am now an evidence-based learning specialist for a school district.

Sweet Summer Time

Well, it's summertime . . . the greatest few months of the year if you ask a teacher.  Okay, so I must admit, I enjoy summer, and my few short weeks off work, but I HATE the heat!  We've made the most of it thought, and the kids have had a ball playing outside.

We've taken several visits to Grandpa and Grandma A's house this summer . . . to play in their nice completely shaded back yard, swing in their swing, and pick strawberries.  We've also had a few BBQ's with Grandma and Grandpa.  

Here is Addy after cooling off with a chocolate ice cream cone!


 Ethan went out to the garden to pick strawberries, and obviously had some fun in the dirt too.

 We've tried to stay cool by playing in the water OFTEN!









 And making evening visits to the park when it's in the shade to do some swinging!

And just for kicks, here is my little one eating some coco puffs.  She thinks it is EXTREMELY funny to throw her coco puffs on the floor and make a gigantic mess.  Little Stinker! :)
