Dad and Luke

Kevin had just come home from work and was playing with Luke in the back yard before Luke had to go to bed. They were having so much fun together. 

Shelby with her Nana

Shelby with her Nana at Uncle Zach and Aunt Dixie's house in Boise. I love this pic. It is such a good one of Mom. Shelby looks a lot like Nana in this pic. I love that, I think it is so cute.
Ok, so I haven't updated my blog in a long time. Not since I joined facebook. But for those of my friends and family who are not on facebook and only do blogs, I will keep this updated as well. Sorry it has been a while. 
Well, we are living in Lakewood CO right now. Kevin is working for his dad until he leaves for basic training for the Air Force. We are having lots of fun, but miss everyone in Idaho soooo much. 
There are not a whole lot of updates for Luke. He is still himself. He has learned to do summer salts though. He enjoys that. 
Shelby is so close to crawling. It is so cute. She gets on her hands and knees and rocks back and forth, and stares at her hands like they are supposed to be doing something, but she is not quite sure what it is yet. I'm sure she will be all over the place before we know it. 
I am still doing pretty much what I always do, just in a different house. I have started attending a parenting class offered by our ward here. Kevin's parents actually teach the class. They do a good job and it is very interesting because I get to hear all sorts of stories.  
Well, that is about it for us for now. I hope everyone is doing well and having a great summer.

           This calf and it's mother were living in the canal in front of our house and are now spending most of their time in the Howards back yard. I took Luke to the window to show him the moose. I said "Look at the Moose Luke. Do you see the Moose?" He said, "OOHHH, Sheep!!!" Not matter how many times I tell him that they are moose, He insists that they are in fact, sheep. That is the biggest sheep I have ever seen. FYI- The snow  that it is standing in is about 3 feet deep. So, you can see how tall it is.
       This Moose is the only one I have seen around here that does not have a calf. She got spooked onto our road by a car. So I decided to take a few pictures of her as she strolled down our road and make her famous. In this one you can see our mail box just under her head. We have dug out the show around it. I think that moose are goofy looking animals and they make me nervous. I will not miss them when they all decide to go back home.
