Back visiting Utah


Me, my mom, and some of my sisters at the fair.
The kids had a blast riding rides at the fair with their cousins. The kids with their Lish cousins in the sheep barn.



The day after Bear Lake. You can tell we got a little too much sun.

I had to throw this picture in because this picture was taken on the day that Daxton turned 6 months old. I just never got around to posting and he is such a cute little boy. He has chuncked up a bit since this picture was taken.

Bear Lake

Kristalee (my sister, the day before she delivered), Me and Savannah, Misty (my cousin), Kelsey(my cousin's wife), Kynzie (my sister), and Kimberli(my sister).Dyson with his cousin Madison.

We were getting ready to leave Bear Lake and Ed put Savannah on his shoulders;
she was so exhausted she feel asleep.

Moving to Boise Idaho

The main reason for our trip to Utah was so that Kalisa and I would have the opportunity to go and check out Boise. I had an interview in Boise with one group three weeks ago and one with another group last week. I immediately fell in love with the city. I'd never been there but loved the small town feel in the big city. I loved my visit so now it was time to get Kalisa hooked on the idea of us living in Boise. Kalisa enjoyed Boise as much as I did. The anesthesia practices were both awesome too. So I signed on with a group that covers the trauma center in Boise and a smaller hospital in Caldwell. It just feels right! So we're moving to Idaho. Kalisa and I had the conversation the other day of how I feel like we end up living in all these places I never saw us living (ie. Russia, Salt Lake City, Buffalo and next Boise). We are so excited to relocate closer to family. The road trip home is under four hours after stopping to eat, feeding Daxton and fueling up. We couldn't be more excited and feel very blessed for this great opportunity; however we will miss all the great friends we've made during our time spent in good ole Buffalo.

Daxton is Sitting


The Anchor Bar



Okay, so Ed LOVES Buffalo wings!!! He went to the Anchor Bar with a classmate a little while back and ever since then he hasn't stopped talking about how good the wings are there. Finally, he talked me into going. They were good, but I don't think I love them as much as him.

The Beach

We have had a lot of fun at the beach this summer!
That is as far as we could get Dyson in the water.

The ZOO

One of our several trips to the Zoo this summer. Dyson and Savannah love to go to the Zoo. Every night before they go to bed they want me to tell them the Zoo animal story. They want me to tell them about every animal at the Zoo and what they were doing when we saw them. You have to remember that Dyson has a great memory for details, so I have to pay extra close attention to all the animals.
Isn't this baby Rhino "Clover" so cute!

Notice, Savannah likes to cover her eyes if she knows someone is taking a picture. What a stink!
