The morning after....

The morning after the fireworks happened to be Sunday. It's almost 8 a.m. and the boys are sound asleep. They didn't get to bed until almost 11:30 p.m. the night before. We had them take quick showers before crashing into their sleeping bags.

This was only a portion of the morning after. We had a couple adults as well as a couple kids with sore legs, stomachs, tailbones, sides and joints. I wasn't one of them.
Two days later - it still hurts for Russell to cough. lol

That was a fun fireworks show. We had a hard time getting up for church the next morning. We had to be there at 8:45, so it was a rough Sunday for us. LOL!

I just love this picture! The beach...it's the place to be!

I think this was in 2004. It was Nephi's first trip to the beach. The boys were all so little! My have they grown.

It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
