The Cook Family: Catch Up

Here's the latest.

You can't really see them in the picture, but there are geese on the field. Sam got a kick out of them.

Sam is eating my face.

Sam sure loves her Aunt Skyler!

What a handsome man! Gosh, I sure love him.

Taylin got her wisdom teeth out. This is her showing us her chipmunk cheeks and demonstrating that it doesn't hurt when she taps them. She said she wasn't loopy, but it's hard to tell what's just her normal silly self and what's from the medication...haha

Pudding and yogurt for this chipmunk. :)

For Memorial Day we went and visited Josh's grandparent's grave in Bountiful. I never knew them, but I've heard stories and I know that they were wonderful people.

Sometimes I read Sam stories. This is her favorite part about reading.

She sure eats it up. Literally.

Yummm

Sam is so close to crawling!

Josh had a birthday! He's a whole quarter of a century young! I made him some pictures for his office, since his office walls are all bare. If you look closely, the collage picture looks pretty dang awesome. I am still patting myself on the back for how it turned out.

We love to eat!

She's got a winning smile. We sure are lucky to have this messy munchkin in our lives!

We spent one Saturday afternoon at Mantua Reservoir. It's BEAUTIFUL! Josh enjoyed fishing and Sam and I enjoyed wading int he water. This reservoir has a 4 mile loop around it, which is great for jogging! We had such a good time. Just looking at the picture makes me all warm again. I love sunshine. I love my family. So it was a great day.

Bright and happy.

It's chaco season again.

Dana Burzo came and visited! Her and some friends from Penn State road tripped across the West and stopped here on their way to Salt Lake City! We had such a good time! She's graduated with her Masters in Engineering and has a job in Florida! We use to play soccer growing up, on the best soccer team of all time, Lightning. So many memories! I can't believe how fast time flies.

I told Dana her and her friends should stop by Temple Square and in support of her Mormon friends, take a picture and send it to me. :) So here are her and her friends in front of the Salt Lake City Temple.

Random picture I found of when Skyler first moved in with us. Sam was still in her mama's-girl phase. Sam likes other people now, so that's nice. And she loves Skyler!

A weekend we spent in Idaho, Rulan put us to work in the yard. Which was lots of fun! We planted lots of plants (courtesy of Josh) and enjoyed the nice warm Idaho weather.
