Allie's Baptism

Allie's baptism went really well. We appreciate everyone who has supported her and who made the trip down to Loa, we know it is far from everyone. We are really pleased with Allie and her decision to be baptized. She is a sweet girl and an important part of our family.

Congratulations Allie!

Catching Up...Finally!

So, we finally are catching up with our blog.

We'll try to summarize our summer...

June found us in Bountiful A LOT actually, we spent every weekend that month up for a family reunion, two weddings, and a saying good-bye to Scott's parents as they departed for the Argentina, Neuquen Mission.

We also celebrated Eddie's 1st birthday and our 10th wedding anniversary.

In July we went camping with the kids for the first time. We haven't had a tent we could fit in, but Scott's parents were nice enough to let us use their tent while they are gone (so Scott's siblings if you are looking for it, we have it, let us know if you need it). The kids all loved it. So we went again the next week when Emily and Isaac came to visit us. To see pictures from that visit our Therapy on the Fly blog.

August brought Allie's birthday, a family reunion on the Harrison side and another wedding. It has been fun, but I am excited for school to start next week to try and get into a schedule.

Office Pictures

We finally have some pictures of the office to show you. Scott has enjoyed building a bookcase and a side table that looks like a fly fishing reel. We haven't had very much business yet, but we are hoping for more this summer. Check out this blog entry about Therapy on the Fly at SpiritoftheSportsman.com. Scott has also changed positions at Aspen Ranch. He is now the floater therapist instead of the equine therapist. We were excited about the change because Scott was ready for something a little different. The floater therapist fills in for the other therapists when they have paid time off. Life is always changing somehow. Scott's parents came down to visit and we had a lot of fun. You can see pictures from Scott and his dad fishing on our Therapy on the Fly blog. Thanks for coming!

Long time no blogging

So we had a great Christmas, even though there was a lot of sickness. Elena went to the doctor Christmas eve, Christmas day and the day after Christmas with the croup. It was bad enough the doctor said he couldn't look me in the eye and tell me she would be okay through the night (Christmas night) and was worried we would end up needing to go to the hospital in Richfield in a storm. Fortunately she was ok and we didn't have to do that, but it scared me to hear him say it. Eddie got sick just after Elena got better, but it didn't last long. Scott took the week after Christmas off and was sick the entire time. So it wasn't quite the relaxing Christmas break I was hoping for, but it was still good.

We have been busy starting a business. Scott is combining his two great loves, helping people and fly fishing in a fly fishing therapy business. There is a link to the blog at the top of this page. We will have a web page up soon. We are working on converting half of our garage into an office. Scott has done a few private practice sessions at home and the rest of us have to hide out in the back of the house while he does them. We will be glad he can have an office for this very soon.

Eddie is getting big. He loves to get around in his walker. He will play with the girls in the hallway. They chase him, then he chases them. It is fun to watch. Allie has enjoyed making friends with some new girls in her class. Elena enjoys helping me. One day she asked who is going to help me when she turns five and goes to school. She doesn't seem to think I will be able to manage without her.
