A New Step

We have started our journey down the solid food road with Tosh. It is incredible how much one child can LOVE food. He is an eater! The second time I fed him rice cereal he laughed every time the spoon started coming towards his mouth because he was so excited. It was hilarious.

Yellowstone and the Tetons

We took a short little vacation over labor day weekend. Why does it take so long to drive anywhere with three kids?!
We spent our first day in Yellowstone. Our first stop was Olf Faithful. Then we looked at some waterfalls and a few other smaller geysers. Summit was so excited to see buffalo so we were really relieved when we ran into a whole herd of them sitting on the side of the road eating. The next day we went to the Tetons and hiked around Jenny lake to the Hidden Falls.

I can't access the other camera card so there's no pictures of Austin or I but we were there.

We're here!

We've finally made it to WY! It seems like it has taken forever. We've actually been here two weeks but still no internet. It's a little hard to blog with no internet.
Andrew is really enjoying his new job. We are getting comfortable in our new house. Still lots of boxes to unpack...hopefully it will be done soon! I keep telling myself I have to wait to craft till I get at least our clothes and basics unpacked. Austin started school and is taking some cool classes. In his PE class he gets to scuba dive in the pool, fly fish, rock climb, orienteer, etc. Summit, Tosh and I are working on making some connections. We've been walking on the river every day and taking frequent trips to the park, the library, and the grocery store. We had a picnic the other night at one of the many fabulous parks here in Casper. Here are a few pictures of our adventure.

WE'RE MOVING

Most of you probably already know but we are packing up and heading to WYOMING! On July 9th Andrew graduated from Northwest Lineman College. Then on July 16th he recieved a call from Short Powerline offering him a postition on their team. He headed out two days later. He has been out there working 12 hour days and trying to get a place for us to live. The boys and I are still here in Nevada City packing and getting all our ducks in a row. We are hoping to head out of here in a week. We will post again when we arrive and fill you in on our new life in Casper.

If this is really what it looks like there in WY...I can't wait to get there!

HAIRCUT

We decided to cut our little guys hair. He looks so old!
He wasn't sitting in front of a mirror when we cut it so when it was all done I took him to look in the mirror. As soon as he saw himself he got the biggest ear to ear grin I have ever seen. He loves his new haircut and so do we but we still kinda miss the long hair.
These pics aren't the best but they are the best of the hair.

Our Week in a Nutshell

I HATE SHOTS AND EAR INFECTIONS! This was Tosh 5 hours after he got his first shots...ugh! Then three days later Summit got an ear infection.

This is Tosh a week later...we like this so much better!

Here is Summit going for a run with Popi...he loves to exercise and stretch with Popi.

Here is Summit and his best friend Coen playing Guitar Hero at our friends house.

My soon to be Lineman

Two months ago Andrew went back to school at Northwest Lineman College. The program is 15 weeks long and runs monday through thursday. After school every day Andrew studies from 4:30 until about 10 pm with a short break for dinner. On Thursday mornings they are tested on that weeks material. For the past five weeks in a row Andrew has got 100% on his tests! He has also been able to pass off a lot of the physical tests already. He is so dedicated and I am so proud of him!!!!
