We are back...

We caved in and got internet again at our house. Here are some pictures taken over the last few months. They are not in chronological order but you will still get the idea.

The newest addition to our household. Yes, we are the crazy people in the neighborhood with a chicken coop in the backyard. Their names are Cluck Cluck and Sammy Davis Jr Jr.
I've been working hard out in the yard lately. We expanded the garden quite a bit. We also took out a bunch of rose bushes and other ugly bushes in the back bed (along the fence) and planted all the herbs back there. This photo was taken about a month ago so it looks a lot different than this now.
Sorry about the blurry picture. Sam LOVES to help me in the garden. He usually just mimics whatever I'm doing. He also likes to eat dirt, step on the pepper plants, and stare at the chickens.
This is Samson's fake cry look.

One of Sam's hiding spots. He loves to pop his head out and say "BOO." He just discovered another hiding spot the other day. I couldn't find him anywhere but eventually heard something coming from the bathroom. He was sitting in the bathtub with the shower curtain closed. He got really excited when I finally found him. It was really cute.
Sam loves his cousin Matilda. He usually tries to cuddle with her like he's doing in this picture. He also loves to give her kisses. He gets very excited when "tiyi" comes over. I think he needs a little brother or sister pretty soon :)


We are all doing very well here. Brian is taking one class and working at Wells Fargo. I just finished playing co-ed intramural soccer at BYU. And Sam is busy just being Sam. Sam and I are going to Oregon next week and are very excited. Brian is headed to San Francisco at the end of the month to visit his brother Paul.
