Sage's Memorial Race - White Rose Run



We raced in the White Rose Run on the weekend ... it was a great experience. My good friend Cindy was the race coordinator and put on a great event. 160 racers in this race. Here is how we placed: Chris placed 2nd in his age category and 21st overall at 26:37, Kai place 3rd in his age category and 19th overall at 26:35, Sam placed 2nd in his age category and 18th overall at 26:34, Sarah came in 34th overall at 27:55, and Tiffany came in 64th overall at 35:33. Everyone did their best and had great time ... next race is in September.

Bailey's Birthday Party




We went to Bailey's birthday party last week ... he had a pirate party at his grandma's house on Diamond Lake. The kids had a blast digging in the sand for treasures!

Hangin' at the Lake




We hung out at the lake with the Moody's ... food, water, sunshine, and good company!

Tiffany turns 15!






Tiffany turned 15 and celebrated her birthday with some friends with a sleepover.

More time with COUSINS!





We were really lucky when we were in Canada - some of the Russell cousins were visiting grandma and grandpa Russell and we got to spend some time with them. The kids love spending time with family, especially their cousins!

Grams and Gramps 65th Anniversary






We drove to Canada to Grams and Gramps 65th Anniversary Party at the Boat Club ... we got to see lots of family and the kids had a blast playing with their cousins. We love family!

Lake time with the Moody's






We spent weekend with the Moody's on the lake ... BBQ, sand, water, s'mores, and some fireworks! Good times!

Weekend Dirt Biking!






We took the kids out dirt biking on the weekend ... we wanted to teach Tiffany how to use the clutch so she could learn how to drive the bug. She did great and so did the boys; Chris on the other hand took a major wipeout and is pretty sure he broke his tailbone. He rode home in the bed of the truck ... ouch!

4th of July Breakfast




We attended our annual ward 4th of July Breakfast ... Sam and Kai participated in the flag ceremony for cubs.
