I took the kids to the pool, along with Aunt Mary and Emma’s friend, Maddie. Despite the crowds and the lovely scent of sunscreen/swim diapers/BO and chlorine, it was a fabulous, hot, sunny day. Pics below. Enjoy!

We went and saw a press screening of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Me and Sam were matchy matchy. We all enjoyed the movie. They did a good job sticking to the old trilogy, while adding new elements. Three out of four stars. Steven Speilberg is the master of the elaborate action scene!
Thanks to Kathy for letting us stay at her house for the half marathon, we had a great time and she and her family, as always, are gracious hosts. Thanks also for coming to the race! The friendly faces among 7,000 participants was fantastic. I finished the half marathon in 1 hour and 43 minutes, one minute faster than last year. I finally broke the sub 8-minute mile pace and ran a 7:55 mile pace for the event. I finished 318 out of 3,819 half-marathoners and 40 out of 235 males my age. Overall, I’m pleased!
Cache Stott Cook came into the world Mar. 24,2008 at 9lbs. 4 oz., 20 in. long. He is quite the big boy and so very cute. Jenny did good! Rod is the proud dad and the girls are very ready to help with every thing. CONGRADULATIONS TO ALL!
Made a trip down to SLC last weekend to car shop, see “Horton Hears a Who” and watch the Jazz dismantle Denver, 135 to 102. Good times, as usual. Savor every minute of Spring folks. It’s almost here. I’m sick of snow. Winter can kiss it. We’re moving somewhere warm before it snows next year. Blech!
Sam is in CTR 5 this year and he was excited to get dressed in his new church clothes today. He’s a cute lil’ guy.
We took this before our little New Year’s Eve shindig. Here’s hoping all your wildest dreams come true in 2008.
2007 was a great year in many ways and not so good in other ways. We got new little TJ, Boyd started a GREAT new business, many of you got raises, Humble sold his practice, Rod passed the CPA exam and pa and I made it through the whole year on our mission. We did lose Grandma, dad moved from the old place, Rod and Boyd had wrecks, but every one is healthy, we have another new baby in the works, the Gospel is True, and we have so very many blessings. I’m looking forward to a GREAT 2008! Be safe and Happy New year to you all. This is what we did on New Years EVE, we went to the burned village and these are the new houses and the old ones. The village people were very happy and so are we.
I took the kids sledding today and we had a blast. Sam was the brave one this time around and Emma was a little recalcitrant to go full bore. I still can’t feel my toes, but I did get to eat Oreos and drink hot chocolate after. I figured adding another one or two pounds to the holiday five (or six…or seven) would be A-OK. Happy New Year!
