Memory Lane


I got this from my friend Tanya's blog. Play along if you'd like.

1.As a comment on my blog, leave a memory that you have of Craig, Hunter or I. It doesn't matter if you knew us a little or a lot, anything you can remember!

2.Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how amny people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory, I'll assume that you are playing the game and I will come to your blog and leave a memory about you. If you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory as one of my comments.

Tubes

After continuous ear infections, Hunter finally got tubes. He was also a little tongue tied, so we had his tongue clipped too. We figured now was a better time since he would already be under general anesthesia and wouldn't have to remember any of the unpleasantness. He was such a trooper. The nurse who brought him back to me after the surgery said he was the best baby they had ever had and she didn't want to give him back(Hunter was giving her some good snuggling). Recovery was nothing. Not even his tongue seemed to bother him. Hopefully we'll be seeing the docotor and the pharmacist a whole lot less now!

This is my groggy baby watching his favorite show, Little Einstiens, shortly after we got home from his surgery.

Happy Fourth from St. George



We had a blast in St. George over the 4th of July weekend. Hunter loved swimming and hanging out with his grandparents while Craig and I got to have some time to play.

Did I mention that Hunter LOVES to swim!!

Family Trip to San Francisco



Friday we went to San Francisco with my parents, Ross and Gina, and Clayson. We had so much fun. It was nice to have Clayson back since it had been 2 years since we last saw him. Also, we have added two members to our clan (Gina and Hunter) while Clayson was away. We had some serious family bonding and made some memories we will still be laughing about in 20 years. Here are some of the highlights.






We hung out on the pier at Fisherman's Wharf. Hunter love the sealions and all the birds. He can do a perfect seagull call.






Later that day we rented bikes and rode 8 miles over the golden gate bridge and down into Saulsalito. This was Hunter's first bike ride and he loved riding in his little yellow coach. He yelled "weee!" for the first few miles and then fell fast asleep. We were totally proud of grandma and grandpa for making it up some killer hills. I'm not sure their rears have recovered yet from this big outing.













While biking on the pier, we ran in to this crazy crew. They made me laugh so hard I had to snap a picture. This is some kind of segeway class. They had an instructor who would call out directions to them, "Turn right, do a complete circle, speed up! You are all so wonderful and doing great! Good job!" They reminded me of the police on their motorcycles in a parade doing their various formations. Some were more skilled than others.






I thought this was a cute picture of Clayson and Hunter on Lombard Street. Although Clayson is slowly adjusting to non-missionary life (he routinely wakes up at 7am, keeps talking in portugese, etc.) he has given up the white shirt and tie. This is a picture taken after church so that is why he has resorted back to his mission garb. Look where Hunter's hand is.










Hunter loves to smell flowers...

...and step on them.

Hunter the ladies man!
















Who's that wierdo hding behind the seals?....that would be Ross.
