Paul's homecoming and June fun

Paul returns from Russia

At the end of May we were so excited to have Paul return home from his mission in Russia. We anxiously waited at the airport for his return. The missionaries are always the last people off the plane. Laurie, Kent, & Sterling wait for a glimpse of Paul.

We came to the airport from Chase's baseball game. He is not waiting so patiently.

Welcome home Paul!!!!!

Last day of 1st grade. Rex is excited to give his teacher her thank you gift. He has grown so much this year and it doing so well.

Chase on the last day of 4th grade. I can't believe how grown up he is. He learned so much this year and did so well. He really enjoyed his teacher and especially all the great field trips they took during the year.

Rex with Mrs. Otley. As you can see she is not much bigger than the kids. She was such a wonderful teacher and Rex really loved her class. He is really going to miss her.

We were able to celebrate summer with a picnic on the patio. It was great that Dad could be with us because he was not feeling that great. This was the last time he was well enough to visit our home. We were so happy to have Paul and Laurie with us. Paul shared experiences from his mission and was so kind to answer all the boys questions about Russia.

We were able to attend the Oquirrh Temple Open House. It was wonderful to tour this beautiful building. Rex enjoyed looking for all the circles in the building.
