July 2008


Here's a sweet clip of Timothy enjoying Sarah's scooter in the kitchen. He's two months away from being 2 years old in this clip and doing quite the job of maneuvering corners. It was bedtime and Timothy and Sarah were in between clothes.


Timothy with his cardiologist, Dr. Michael Puchalski.



The five cousins: Timothy, Elias Mudock, David Gal, Noah Shumway, Elijah Pfeiffer.


With great Grandma Merrill

In Duschesne, Utah, with an evening's catch of German Brouwn trout. Grandmpa Shumway fell into a deep hole in the river while crossing it to get to a great spot. It paid off because right after that he caught those two monsters.



Paki Ngatuvai and his family came for a get together while Grandma and Grandpa were here. They provided lovely entertainment and great food, including a roasted pig.

Hunter Murdock and Sarah.


Sarah decided to give Jeff a footrub while he was taking a nap.


Timothy and Sarah love to put on Kathy's shoes. Sarah with one of her dolls.

At the St. George Temple.



Here we are at the Whiting Homestead for the Whiting Reunion. There were over 1000 people in attendance and Jeff so kindly allowed Kathy to go with the 5 oldest kids and kept Sarah and Timothy at home since we didn't feel like dealing with him on oxygen day and night. The favorite part of the homestead is always the rope swing which Aaron mastered quickly. He could do lots of turns and here we caught one swing on video.



Kathy with her cousin Jaque Likes, reliving memories of the Homestead.

Kids love to roll down the hill inside this pipe.


The rope swing, one of the highlights of the Homeastead.


Trevor got paid to drink straight from the source. Thanks, Dave Brown.


Do all families prepare for family pictures this way?

Ahh, but the result is always worth it!
