Stuff about our family!

We love spending time together as a family. Some of our favorite things to do together is to read together and play board games. Luke likes Monopoly and Isaac likes Hi-Ho Cherry-O. We also like to play in the back yard. The sandbox is a favorite as well as the trampoline. We also like to go to the park and go on little mini day or weekend trips like to Hannibal, MO or Nauvoo, IL. We also have enjoyed getting Six Flags Season passes. We love to give our kids opportunities to try new things and develop their talents. We have put them in swimming lessons, and on soccer, tee-ball, and basketball teams. It is fun to see their different talents emerge and see the confidence that grows from participating in these activities. We will continue to encourage them to develop their talents and support them and attend every event in whatever interests them most! Jen also enjoyed being able to volunteer at Luke's school and to teach preschool for Isaac. That is one of the reasons why we feel so strongly about Jen being at home, so she can support our kids in their education and interests.

As a couple Jen and Tyler enjoy going on regular date nights. We like enjoying a quiet meal together, talking to each other. We also enjoy watching and going to football games together. We have been known to travel great distances and make family vacations out of BYU football games! We like to play broad games together too--Tyler always wins at the strategy games and Jen always wins at the trivia games!

Being silly...we have a bigger wading pool, but this was the one Luke wanted to fill! That's typical Tyler, just getting down and doing what the kids are doing!

Weekend vacation to Nauvoo.

Another weekend vacation to Hannibal, touring the Mark Twain cave.

Playing on the trampoline.

Paddle boating is so fun!

We are just a very happy family who loves being together and who has LOTS of love to share!
