Dope Free
















Team Norda's is always available for Doping tests and the team has never failed a drug test. When we say we are in Mexico you can rest assured that we are really there and that we are not in Italy working with some shady doctor. The photos above show Bob chasing Brian (first photo) and John (second photo) on the descent from the summit of Strawberry into the Bear Lake Valley at Lotoja 2006. The last photo is of John and Michael before an easy ride with the bros and their domestique dad.

Correction

Paige read the previous posting closely enough to notice that I had mistakenly titled one picture "Lorin smiling" when it should have been "Tyler smiling." Because I don't know how to go back and correct things, this notice will have to do. Sorry about that! (note: since corrected, Bob)

Delayed old-fashioned (film) pictures from wedding

Clark and Laura coming out of the Bountiful Temple; Laura and Katie; Laura with mother and sisters; Adrienne and Nick; Melissa, Polly and Adam; Paige, Polly, and Lorin cropped in front of Temple door; Paige and Lorin as love-birds; Paige as photographer; Tom, Shelly, Sam, and Mac without shy Alex; Tyler smiling; Matt, Kim and Chance; JD and Mindy (in that order.)














































































Those of you who thought I wouldn't know how to do this, please raise your hands. OK, you can all put your hands down now. If any of you know how to 1. size a picture, 2. arrange where the text goes, or 3. generally manage the blog, please let me know.

Emmett's Made Fresh....take three


Chad is now certified as a navigator and can lead you directly to Emmett's Made Fresh. Such was not the case yesterday. Thankfully, we had Beth in the truck with us and she got us there with no problem. Chad and his kids had to walk a short distance after driving right past it. He said something about the the address being wrong on the website. I'm sure he's checking into that right now. Thankfully he has a few more years before his stint as scoutmaster begins and he has to lead Joel and Will to the camp site in the dark on a Friday night. The senior Emmett's - none other than John and Norda - also joined with Mary and most of her girls for a fine dinning experience. The owner said they wanted to name the place "Lehi's Other Dream", but weren't sure the local Mormons would appreciate the humor so they settled on 'Emmett's Made Fresh'

Grandma and Jack at Emmett's Made Fresh







Jack's overnighter with grandma and grandpa




Annie and I talked John and Beth into letting us take Jack to Logan last Sunday night for a sleep over at Great-grandma Smith's house. He was great and we had a ton of fun showing him off to Annie's brothers and sister Jana. We also enjoyed lunch with his great-grand parents. He mowed through three limes, flinching slightly on the last one that had some salsa on it.

Not that there's anything wrong with that...



















Isn't he lovely? These are pictures from the BBQ we had at Clark's parents house Friday night.

4th of July

For the 4th of July holiday, Adam and I drove up to Santa Barbara to spend time with family and friends before Adam starts work on Mon.



We went to a pancake breakfast in the morning for the Montecito Fire Dept. and then spent the rest of the day at the beach.

Emmett's Made Fresh...take two


Lorin & I were down in Saratoga Springs & went through Lehi to get home. We saw Emmett's & just had to stop! The best part (besides the free food) was seeing John & Beth's picture! What a fun time & great food. We didn't get our t-shirt because they didn't have a camera to take our picture. So the camera phone had to do this time. Thanks to John & Beth for the fun idea! I would have never recognized it if it hadn't been for the blog!http://www.whereisemmett.com

More Birthday Celebration







Oh boy, we LOVE a party!









Koebe and Jaxson striking a birthday pose.












































Koebe goes with the old school Jazz cake while Jaxson prefers the Broncos, much to the delight of his Grandpa and no one else.
















Okay, everyone smile, except Max, you go ahead and cry . . .
