I was laying in bed and I couldn't get to sleep. It is really hot in our house and we hate running the AC. I am amazed at how fast time flies. We have been married almost ten years and our kids are all growing up. I feel at times that life is just going and I wish I could stop life and just hang out for a while. It reminds me of a Greg Brown song, "Spring Wind".
I wish I was as poetic as Greg Brown but I am glad I don't look like him
Back to the family, we went camping a couple of weeks ago and we are ready to go again it was so nice to get away!
Miriam and Eli. Poor Liza having her face all squeezed!
I lived awhile without you, darn near half my life. I no longer see our unborn children, born to you my lovely wife. But yesterday I had a vision, beneath the tree where we once talked, of an old couple burning their love letters so their children won't be shocked. Love calls like the wild birds-- it's another day. A Spring wind blew my list of things to do...away. My friends are gettin older, so I guess I must be too. Without their loving kindness, I don't know what I'd do. Oh the wine bottle's half empty-- the money's all spent. And we're a cross between our parents and hippies in a tent. Children go to sleep now-- you know it's gettin' late. I know you don't like to miss nothin' and school ain't that great. Oh, I'll dance with you when you're happy, and hold you when you're sad, and hope you know how glad I am, just to be you're Dad. Darlin' it's been a hard go but I think we'll be okay. I know I say that all the time like everything else I say. Oh, I've been gone so often, but every time I miss you, and I don't really know nothin', Except I like to kiss you.

Leia was especially grumpy when we hiked!

We went with some neighbors. Miriam and Shelby and Shelby's new little baby.

Miriam,
What are you doing? Two posts in one week- you're making me look really bad now.
I swear it's disgusting how beautiful you are in all your pictures- it's not fair your hair is always perfect.
I would be as grumpy as Leia too if you made me go camping when there was still snow on the ground.
Have a good week and see you next Thursday.

Your blog looks great! Who writes it, Tyler or Miriam, or both? We did see Anna and Michael on the Vineyard. It was really fun to catch up. They are still seeing each other, and they're planning to come through Salt Lake sometime around August 20th. We talked about all of us getting together for dinner or something. If you haven't already commented on Kristi's blog, I'm sure she would love to hear from you and see your blog. :)
