A Little Fall Fun

It has been quite a busy little while since we've updated, so we decided to get on it. We don't want to bore anyone with too many details of our exciting lives, so we'll just give you a quick recap of our last few months...

We moved into a new house right down the street from the school

Just kidding, this is Ella's playhouse. Here's the real deal.....

Dave started his second year of dental school (and by now has finished his first quarter of that year)

Dave officially became Lt. Ryan in the National Guard.

Jill started a running group with some girls in the ward. She's so proud of all of their hard work and dedication.

Jill went to Utah for a week with a friend

Ella turned one and had her first visit to the ER while they were in Utah. Needless to say, one skull fracture and a hospital stay later, everyone survived.

Dave went to Mexico with some buddies from school. They had a great time


We made another trip to Utah because Jill's Grandpa Claire passed away. We will sure miss him.

Ella loved the snow.

Stopped by Vegas on the way home.

Ella learned to walk (running soon followed)


Dave went deer hunting (see previous post for details)

Jill's parents came to visit for a week. We went to the Grand Canyon and had lots of fun with them.

And last but not least... drum roll please....give it up for the newest member of our family!!!

Coming June 2010

Kiabab Deer Hunt

Last weekend I went deer hunting in Northern AZ
with Pops, and my uncles Mark & Troy. We only saw
does for the first few days till Dad & I found a sweet spot
our last night there. He's only a 2X2, but he weighed
more than all the other bucks hanging in camps.
Steaks, roasts, and ground venison will be here shortly!
