Just got back from NYC with Dallin and my dad. We had some good times, and Dallin took approximately 167 photos. He says he is planning his biggest blog post ever (including some polls!!!!), but in the meantime, here's a look at people looking at new york.
Today James fell asleep for his nap with both legs sticking out of the crib slats.
Later today, I dropped Dallin and Amanda off at a golf camp. On the way back home I noticed that Henry was cracking up. I looked in the rearview mirror and saw that Emily was ducking down behind the seat, so I assumed that Emily was playing some kind of peek-a-boo game with Henry. Henry kept cracking up and I looked in my mirror again, but this time I saw that Emily was actually asleep. Henry wasn't laughing at a peek-a-boo game, but he was laughing at Emily's sleepy head that was bobbling back and forth as I drove around the corners. Too funny.

Here it is. We're on a blogging roll. Yet another video coming your way, live from Dallin's 10th bday party wipeout course:
"Take that Katy!" says Lisa, about her wipeout ball cake, complete with fondant and all
Yesterday was Dallin's bday bash, with a wipeout theme. If you don't know what wipeout is, click here.
Henry watched intently (and chewed on his swing) while we set up the course.
The kids had fun, and I have some good (funny?) video footage that I'll try to post soon.
For the wipeout course, you start on the zip line, and go over the stream and land in a kiddie pool full of jello. You then run to the blow-up waterslide while dodging flying water balloons. After sliding down, you proceed to the doughnut station and try to eat a powdered sugar doughnut off the string while powdered sugar falls from the sky onto your head. The last step is just to walk across a pool noodle over the river to the finish line. Nothing to it.
And here he is.. the young man of the hour. 10 years old today:

And this is how the Moyers came dressed for the wipeout party:
While they do look sharp, it wasn't very practical for the muddy obstacle course.
Disclaimer: Lisa didn't really say "Take that Katy!" .... And you might think Jason was wearing a white shirt to impress the father-in-law, but they actually just came from a baptism.
We haven't gone camping this summer (or even last summer, for that matter) for some strange reason. So we decided to set up camp in the yard, and just stay up late watching the stars (while the babies sleep in their cribs).
Before dark, however, we needed to indulge in some perfectly toasted smores:
The secret is putting some good chocolate on the graham cracker and placing it somewhere near the heat so the chocolate melts... and of course the golden brown marshmallow, roasted patiently to perfection.
Our big tent has a nice panoramic screened moonroof, and the stars are just amazing up here in the woods. So we'll have to do it again soon since Dallin just got a little telescope at his birthday party yestserday.
Lisa made one of the babies cry by not sharing her popsicle.
But the twins had fun trying out their cousins' toys.
.. and Jack continued to make funny faces
.. like his dad...
