First Day of School!

Always fun to get back to school with friends!





Hudson and his good friend Millie on the playground at school.

Good-Bye to Summer - Labor Day 2009

It is always hard to see the summer go, but we made the best of it by taking one last trip down the shore to Spring Lake. We love the Jersey Shore!





Mets+US Open+Shake Shack=Good times

The boys went to a Mets game and then caught some of the US Open out at Flushing Meadows before meeting up with me at the Shake Shack in the city. It was a fun day in the city.

Boise- Summer 2009

After Utah, it was on to Boise for more family fun, Wilson-style.

We played some tennis.


No trip to Boise is complete without fishing with Grandpa Wilson - We love it!


Trip to the new and improved Boise Zoo.


Introducing the newest Wilson arrival - Cannon Wilson - compliments of Ben and Nikki.


Proud Father, Ben!


Porter's 7th B-day party. He was very specific about requesting a cousin's pool party with pool games and a pool cake. I did my best to deliver.



swimming, swimming and more swimming - the kids can't get enough of it at Grandpa and Grandma Wilson's.



Summer trip to Utah - 2009

Lots of great times in Utah with family. Below are just a few of the highlights.

Braxton, Porter and Hudson love to be with their cousins.


Lagoon - Where the fun never stops. We had a family day at Lagoon - the white roller coaster and wild mouse never get old, but it was nice to go on some new rides like "Wicked".




Home-sweet-home with Grandpa and Grandma Rich!


4-wheeling fun at Rob and Aki's place in Farmington. Thanks for letting us stay with you!


Golf @ Oakridge Country Club - Tanner showed us the ropes.


More golf - yes that is right, Mike managed to play over 90 holes of golf - I am starting to think he might like this sport:) This was at Thanksgiving Point golf course with Brent, Burke and Beau.


After spending the morning at the Thanksgiving Point Dinosaur museum with my sister Jessica and her cute family, we all headed to one of our favorite places to eat -Cafe Rio! Gotta have our Cafe Rio "fix".


Good ol' Cache Valley Rodeo!


Visiting Aunt Gay at her new place in Logan.


Mean game of Mother/Son ping pong. We were doing well until meeting tough match-up against Lori and Logan - 2nd place isn't so bad.


Traditional B-day "spank machine" line-up at Bear Lake Cabin.


Visit to Paris, Idaho to visit Charles C. Rich homes and historical sites.


Day of swimming and family fun in the sun at the Logan Aquatic Center.

A quick trip to DC = Fun times

It is nice to live so close to so many fun areas. What makes it even better is to have family and friends to visit. We took a little weekend trip to DC to be with friends and visit my brother Chad. It was a lot of fun. The kids loved swimming in the pool, jumping on the tramp, playing tennis and basketball and best of all going to the Orioles game, where Porter got a foul ball - he was thrilled. Thanks for the good times Archibalds. After some time with friends, we went to my brother Chad's place and visited with him.




Sunday Best!

All dressed up with everywhere to go. Hudson loves to strike a pose. Here he is on a Sunday afternoon in our backyard.
