Aggie-Badger Game

Dave and Jeni got tickets to see the Utah State Aggies play Wisconsin in football.  It was a lot of fun and a very close game.  USU came within one play of winning the game.  Despite losing, it was fun and we appreciate the Schmidt family for giving us the tickets.

Swimming Pictures

Our family went to Chicago a few weeks ago to go to the temple.  We left on a Friday afternoon so Dave and Jeni could attend the temple that evening.  On Saturday morning, we went swimming at the hotel.  Here are a few pictures we took.

Avonlea had lots  of fun in the shallow end

Marshal's Fishng Trip

I was going through some pictures today and found these.  I don't think I posted any of these yet.  Marshal went camping this summer with Grandpa and Uncle Jeff.  It was his first time fly fishing, and first time hiking high in the Uinta mountains.  He caught 25 fish on the trip, unfortunately most were very small.  But he had a good time, especially with Jeff and Max.

Girls Camp at Rock Island

Here are a few pictures from Jeni's girls camp trip to Rock Island.  Dave went along as one of the Priesthood Leaders.  We had a fun time.
