Dysart High School Homecoming

Sam and Victor worked there booties off for many, many hours and lots of late nights to make their senior poster and float AWESOME!  Go Demons!

Student Body VP Sam Alger and Pres Victor Caban
Best Buds


They were playing the Bulldogs for the Homecoming game, that is why Victor the Demon is being carted around by the guys in the yellow Bulldog t-shirts.



 Truly, their poster was huge and amazing!  These guy are so artistic!!!  I love the torn sleeves with the bulging biceps on the their poster.  





Your hard work really paid off, my darling boys!!!

Our Sweet Joshy

Josh got his Patriarchal Blessing.  It was a wonderful evening celebrating how wonderful he is and how much we love him.  He is an amazing young man.





Tim the Polar Bear?

This is from a school project he did last year for Spanish.  We were cleaning out his room and had to take a couple of pics before this fella went in to the recycle bin.  Isn't he a cutie!?!




Labor Day Weekend in Tucson

We went down to Tucson for Labor Day weekend, except for Sara who had plans with a friend.  Richard and the old boys hadn't been to Dandi and Aaron's new place yet.  The weather was gorgeous so we spent most of the time outside.  It was a wonderful time.



Seriously spectacular views from their house!


Crazy cousins!







Almost everyone joined in a long game of baseball.



Look at those mountains!
