One Sunday I had just finished getting the kids ready for Church and Paeton walked up to Nolan and bowed and said "Would you like this dance?". Nolan in return put out his hand and said "Yes!" and they put their hands right where they should have and started do a Waltz. Can you say "PRICELESS!!!! Leland stood there for about a minute or two and went up and tapped Nolan on the shoulder and said "May I?". Nolan moved and than Paeton and Leland started dancing. It was amazing to watch and they were having a BLAST!!!! I have to say, I did not teach how to do any of this and I am thankful for Princess movies and that the boys like to watch them with Paeton. They are TOO CUTE!!!!

First day of School











The kids were so excited to go to school. It made me really sad. I was going to take them, but Nolan started crying because he wanted to ride the bus so bad. So the big softy that I am let them ride the bus. I got in the car and followed them to the school and I was doing really good until their Teacher had them line up and blow their mom's a kiss and say, "Don't worry Mom we will be okay today, love you!". I COMPLETELY lost it and turned into a water faucet. I cried all afternoon. I was so happy to see them when they got home from school. They had a great day and LOVE their Teacher.

Family Reunion
















We had a Steiner Family Reunion in July. Rod's brother and his family from Alaska came down (they are all wearing navy blue) , his brother from Montana and his family came down (they are all wearing white) and Rod's sister who lives down the street from us and her family (in the blue and pink) and of course there is our family (in red, white and blue). It was fun to have all the cousins together for the first time. We missed Rod's parents who are serving a Mission and will be gone for 18 months. It is the first family picture for us since we have been married and I think it turned out pretty good.





Splashin' with Friends















The kids two days in a row were having fun splashing around in the water with friends. They played in our backyard with the neighbor kids and the next day we went to the water park in town and they got to play with their cousins from Montana. They had so much fun and wanted to splash everyday. My little fishes!!

On my walk one morning









I go for a walk every morning and decided to take the camera with me. You get to see the sunrise here and you can see the Grand Tetons poking up over the mountain range in front of them. Also, just a couple pictures of our house.

From our back deck









These are some pictures I took from the back deck of the house. I think you can see the garden pretty good. It is a lot bigger than it looks. The Barn is actually about a mile away and our camera did a nice job zooming in on it. Hope you enjoy.

Fourth of July 2007





We went to the Fourth of July Parade and had a great time there. Well, Towards the end of the Parade we did. Nolan was completely coming unglued about all the balloons that were at the Parade. Plus it was a little windy that day which made him upset even more. I don't understand his "annoyance" (lack of a better word) of the wind and things blowing in the wind. We did enjoy watching and the kids, especially Leland, had every pocket STUFFED with candy. They had a hay day collecting candy and waving at everyone that went by.
