Baby Jack is Here!!!

Jack Henry arrived on Thursday 9/24 at 12:48 pm. He weighed 7 pounds 6 ounces at birth, was 20.5 inches, and came into the world with a full head of brown hair! He is a mellow little guy and we love having him around. His big sister is doing really well and seems to like "Baby Jack" so far. He has a darling, sweet little face to match his disposition. As you can imagine, there will be a lot more pictures in the posts to come!

Happy Anniversary!

It was 13 years ago today that we tied the knot in Steamboat Springs, CO. It was even before digital cameras.....these pictures were all scanned in later.

July with Adele

Doesn't she look like she has a great life?

On His Way!

The newest Fisher should be here in about 2.5 weeks. Here is what he looked like about a month ago.

Family Potluck and Campfire Sing-a-long

One of the traditions of the big family reunion camping trip is a potluck dinner and campfire sing-a-long on Friday night. We all end up camping in different sites around the campground, so this is a great way to get everyone together in one place.

Here we all are before dinner

Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Rulon
Singing at dusk. My cousin Cathy plays the guitar while everyone sings.


Adele enjoying the campfire and dancing to the music.

The Football Game

One of the highlights for Adele at the family camping trip was her first football game. Here she is warming up before the big game



And here she is in the thick of it




She got mowed over a couple of times. The first time, she just got up and kept going. The second time took a little bit more TLC, but she still got back in there!

New Adventures

While on our camping trip, Adele got to try out some new things. She pretty much commandeered this 3-wheeled scooter belonging to her little 4-year old cousin (technically, the grandson of my first cousin). He was a great sport about it and just let her have it.
DOH!
She also got to wade in the stream with lots of other cousins (again, technically, they are the grandkids of another of one my first cousins) and with daddy. Adele is in the hat.

My mom is the youngest of 8 kids, so the age spread amongst our family is pretty wide. That coupled with the fact that, yes, we are older parents, pretty much means that most of the kids that are Adele's age are the grandkids of my first cousins.
