Our families next photographer or model?

Whitney loves our digital camera. Her and Courtney go out and spend hours shooting video and taking pictures. Courtney and Whitney went out for a photo shoot and came back with some great pictures. Here are a couple examples of their work together.
Strike a pose girlfriend.
I love this picture of Courtney.

Will it ever stop raining?

Our area has received record rainfall in the month of June. We have only had 3 days in June without rain. A couple weeks ago we were getting on average an inch a day for about 3 days in a row.


This is my rain measuring duck. We had just finished our 2nd day in a row of getting an inch or more of rain. Someone at work told me Seattle called and wants their rain back since they are going through a small drought right now and my vote is to send it back.
This was one crazy storm. Smithfield which is 20 miles south of us had hail that was just a little bit bigger than marbles. Jeff's parents unfortunately had to replant most of their garden because it was ruined by the hail. There were quite a few people in Smithfield that also had their homes flood because of the amount of rain received in a such short amount of time from this storm. Looks pretty viscous huh?
It's a good thing God gave us his promise to never flood the earth again.

It's a boy!

Whitney has been working really hard for the last 2 years to earn a puppy for her grades. Well here he is. His name is Zorro and he's a cute little baby boy mini dachshund.

His birthday is April 21st. Kate picked him up from a lady in Provo and met us in Ogden for the exchange. Whitney couldn't be happier. He's already pad trained and we are working to get him trained for outside. If it would ever quit raining it would be easier.

Thanks everyone!

Jeff and I want to thank everyone for all of their help in getting Blake raised and graduated. I can't believe our baby is all grown up and graduated. We appreciate all the gifts and help in celebrating this tremendous achievement. Blake is in the process of applying to go to tech school to become a plumber. He may not show much plumber butt, however, the smells that eminate from his body are enough to ruin anyone's sense of smell. I'm not sure Blake can smell anything anymore and will make a great plumber.
