Did you know...

10 Best Towns for Families: 2010

Courtesy of Shelly Houston, City of Meridian

#8 Meridian, Idaho

Median Income: $66,888
Median Home Price: $177,000
Households with Children: 47%

The population has quadrupled in the last decade, but for Debbie and Mark Bennett that just means there's more Meridian to love. "It's still a place where people value a low-key, no-fuss lifestyle," says Mark, 54, a real estate agent. "Everything is comfortable here."

Funny Things

Cooper: What is a garage sale?
Me: When people sale their stuff to other people for money.
Cooper: We should sale all of Connor's stuff and keep the money and be rich.
Me: That isn't very nice, Cooper.
Cooper: So rich people aren't nice, we will fit right in.


Me: If you are nice today you can play video games later.
Cooper: How long do I have to be nice?
Me: All day
Cooper: But what time can I stop being nice?
Me: never
Cooper: Well that's just impossible. Do you want me to fail at everything?


Cooper said this during family prayer: "Bless that Dad, Connor and Grandpa can be safe. Wait, no, don't bless that Connor will be safe. Just bless dad and grandpa"

Summer Fun

Our Summer has been full of fun and is off to a great start!!

We got to spend a day with the Gibson Kids

Eric and I went to the Folsom Rodeo for the 4th of July. We forgot our camera but my favorite favorite favorite part is when the parachuter comes in while "Proud to be an American" is playing!

Brock babysat for us while we went. When we came home the report was he was the best babysitter EVER! (gee...I wonder why! see pics!)

We went to the Jellybelly Factory with Katie, Lucas, Mason, Jill, Andi, Brian, Dax, Cale and Sam! That was fun!!

The Jones came to town so we went to LEATHERBY's! The kids had more fun eating ice cream than doing anything else together!!

Now if I can remember my camera...there will be lots of more fun stuff to post later!

Called to Serve

Sharday received her call to Brazil!! It was so awesome to be there when she opened her call. What a sweet reaction she (and her mom) had. I am so proud of Sharday and her decision to serve a mission. The people in Brazil will be blessed to have her. She reports to the Brazil MTC on November 17th and will be speaking Portuguese. I can't wait to hear all of her missionary moments!!
