Josh's B-day Surprise and more!

Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend! Josh's 21st birthday was Sat. so we had his b-day celebration yesterday (Sunday) and Greg surprised him with a new kitten! Here are the pics and video:





Also, Megan played in her high school's Powder Puff football game Tuesday evening and here are her pics and vids:





Also on Friday afternoon, Jaime's band from Middle School walked and played in the Homecoming parade, so here are her pics:

Ian and I took Jaime, Emma, and Taylor to the State Fair Wed. after school and had a pretty good time. We did stay too long though! We made the mistake of riding the rides last and by that time (8 pm) the lines were sooooo long! Next year, we'll do the rides first then see all the other events, etc. Jaime got to see lots of horses, and we even saw a show with Grizzly bears - very fun! Of course we went on Dollar Day so parking, entrance, all the rides and some food were just $1 each, so that made it even more fun (right Ian?!). Here's a picture of Taylor on a tractor and another pic of Taylor & Emma on a ride:


















The next exciting event in our week is coming up this Thursday evening when Tahra and her unofficial fiance, Jonathan, will arrive here to visit for the weekend! We're very excited to meet him and give him the third-degree!! By the way, they met through work; he went to BYU-Provo for 2 years so far; served a mission (for the church) for 2 years in Geneva, Switz. (same mission that Ian served in!); and is now working full-time - and Tahra adores him!! I'm planning on taking some family pics while they're out here so I'll post those next week!
Have a great week!!

love ya

Oh, almost forgot - I came across a video of Taylor at his Kindergarten graduation last year when he had a little speaking part, in case you're interested!
