Porsches & Pastries

Our friends have a hobby that they have turned into an event called Porches & Pastries. Every year, Jennifer makes tons of pastries & desserts while BJ & his parents show off all their cars & their shop. They have a wonderful BBQ & invite all their friends & customers. It's kind of like a car show for Porsches only!
BJ & Jennifer own this 1964 white one. Dream on, kid!
Hmmm, how many people can we fit in this thing?

5-guess we could get one, ha ha!

Again, dream on, kid!

We were able to drive around the block & go as fast as we could. It was so awesome! Makes us miss our 5-speed manual!

The shop was in the basement of the house-very crazy! They had a ramp up into the garage & driveway. There was also a 3 or 4 car garage to the side of the house-all full of Porsches!! Ryan was in heaven, drooling all over the cars & we both loved driving!! Thanks for a great experience!

Birthday #1

This year we have to do 3 birthday parties, as we will have a 10-yr-old, 8-yr-old, & 5-yr-old! Obviously we weren't thinking ahead when we agreed to this, but here we are! We kicked off the end of Summer with Murph's birthday & decided to do the party right before school started. She opted for a roller skating party at Skate City, where they give her a free pair of skates to keep!







Ryan enjoyed skating with all the kids too!
Thanks for a memorable party, Skate City!

Celebrated at Red Robin-we did this AGAIN w/family 1 week later!

The first day of school was her actual birthday-Little Man picked out the cake!
She celebrated 3 or 4 times over a month!! We still can't believe she's really 10! Happy Birthday, Murph!

BYU vs Air Force

We took the kids to see a BYU game in Colorado Springs when they played Air Force. We had great seats & went to the tailgate party!


Little Man was scared to death of Cosmo!

Cheerleaders in training!

Andrea's dad, brothers, & a friend came for the game, as well as Ryan's parents, niece & nephew. Ryan's sister & family joined us from Northern Colorado as well. This isn't quite all of us, but close enough!

Labor Day Weekend

We went camping to Golden Gate State Park with some friends. We loved it & hope to return!


We even got to go fishing-FINALLY!!!



So proud of their catches-they were the only 2 that caught anything!
