A Good Big Brother!

Our neighbor just related this story to us:
They were walking home from school and ran into Bryce and Emma. Bryce was carrying his back pack and Emma's and was asking her to hurry up please. Emma was taking her time and barely shuffling her feet. "Emma, please hurry up!" he begged again. The neighbor commented that it was nice of him to carry her backpack, and that he sure was a good big brother, to which Bryce replied, "Yah, it sure is hard though sometimes."

1st Day of School


Boating!














We went boating with Uncle Jason, Aunt Staci, and baby Jackson!

Bryce's birthday!




Mmmmm--this birthday cake looks tasty!


Sienna turns 3!

Breckenridge


























Every year we go to Breckenridge for CASE Conference (for Ben's work). These are some of my favorite pictures: of them being doctors and dressing up at the Children's Museum, playing at the park, rolling down the skywalk in the hotel, and swimming at the pool.

Blomstedt Family Reunion














Here are a couple shots from the Reunion. I have yet to completely sort through the hundreds of pictures combined by every family--there are so many great ones. So, I may be editing this post later on. We had a great time in South Dakota visiting the Reptile Gardens, Mount Rushmore, Black Hills Caverns--panning for gold, the Dinosaur Museum, Old MacDonald's Farm, and at the wonderful campground we stayed at.
