I am such a dork at this kind of stuff. It's taken me one hour just to find the pictures and figure out how to post them. But I'll try it anyway.
I thought I would start with what we did over the summer. This was taken at El Yunque in Puerto Rico. It's the rain forest. We hiked to the very top of the mountain and we are at the top of this tall building on top of the mountain. If you look behind Josh, it looks like it's a pretty good drop. Curtis sat on the edge and leaned over to take a picture and Taylor lost it. She stood in the middle of the platform screaming at the top of her lungs. It took a lot out of her to take this picture. After this, Taylor and I went back down.
After hiking up and down the mountain (it took about an hour and a half), we decided to hike down to the waterfall (another long hike). It was worth it. It was so pretty, but the water was cold. The kids (and Curtis) had fun. Curtis, of course, was trying to find lost treasure at the bottom of the waterfall. (That's his head in the waterfall)
The kids and I are in front of a very old fort from the late 1400's. It's called El Morro in Old San Juan.
This is my favorite picture of our family at sunset on the beach. Our friends had us over for Sunday dinner, and they took our picture. We had such a great time. We all want to go back now (to visit.) That coral was SHARP!
This was our favorite thing to do in Puerto Rico. The water was very warm and no one ever wanted to get out. Not even to eat!!
Next we went and visited Shelly and family for Noah's baptism. We had so much fun that we can't wait to go back to visit.
After Utah, we went to Arizona to spend time with family. We were able to go up to the White Mountains and go to the 24th of July parade. It was so fun. This picture has the kids with their Great Uncle Leland Nikolaus.
Julia's first shiner. She fell and hit the side of her eye at a water park. Sure enough, a few days later, her eye looked like she had purple make-up on. She did not want me taking her picture, but when it's a first, you have to.
