Ah...Father's Day...yeah, we've caught up to June 21st...

On Father's day we went to church, then we walked over to what the kids call the secret or hidden park near us and played for a while. Here we are...

Kindle Cat ant that wily ice cream cone...

Kindle ate ice cream for her first time in June. She loved it...too bad we have since discovered that she is lactose intolerant...oh well, enjoy these anyway!


Solace met an astronaut...

Solace was invited with about 100 other kids in Omaha to go to a program at the Children's Museum on World environment day and to meat and learn about our Earth from the first African-American female astronaut, Dr Mae Jemison. We thought it would be cool for her to go to, so she did. I snuck in the door and tried to get a few pictures between the news cameras. They did not turn out well, but here are the best ones.

Solace Dr Jemisen
(While she was at the program, the other kids and I played around the rest of the museum. Her is Kindle in Elmo's World in the visiting Sesame Street exhibit.)

Just too funny not to share...

OK, so after Canada On May 22...

Our flight to Salt Lake City from Vancouver Canada got was scheduled to arrive about 55 minutes before my cousin, Tiffany was scheduled to get married in the Salt Lake temple. We made some crazy arrangements, but were able to make it and to see our kids right after the ceremony. Here are a few pictures...

Beautiful Solace Kindle could not stop hugging her dad-she evidently missed him A LOT!!
