Three dealers and two job-offers later

We FINALLY purchased a car and got rid of two. It feels good to not have three cars anymore! We bought a Honda Pilot (from Courtesy Honda here in Reno) with 32k miles on it out the door for just a little over trade-in (we didn't even pay blue book private party value on it), lots of thanks to our friend and businessman Victor for valuable purchasing strategies and my dad (Pete's dad) for sound advice.

Latest Maya Pictures

We took these on the 13th of June. The guy in the picture is one of our boys from the youth ministry. She's a Boston fan! Thanks Reid Family.

Spring Man Trip

Check out the reflection on the lake.
We day-hiked/scrambled this beast. Bailey was very impressive!
We had to free-stand the tents on the rocks, because the grass was covered in snow.
There's Jeremy.
Bailey and me, sporting our warm clothes.

I went backpacking at the end of May in the Desolation Wilderness (South Lake Tahoe)with my friend Jeremy and Bailey. It was a short hike, a total of about 12 miles but a fun one. Instead of my usual style (seeing as many different places as possible) we packed in and made a basecamp at Lake Aloha and stayed there for about a day and a half. While we were there we day-hiked, threw rocks at the icebergs in the lake, napped, talked and laid around on the rocks. It was relaxing.

First swim...

We made a trip to Sacremento/San Francisco for a graduation trip with the 6th graders. Maya went for her first swim at a water park on the trip. She slept through wading in the water!

Samantha Farnum(Munn), Kim's roommate from MNU came for a visit and made the trip to San Francisco with us. Alexa, Sam's daughter kept us laughing. She really liked to hold Maya.
