Our Family

Palmer, Alaska, United States
Ryan and I have been married for a whopping 18 years. We are a very busy LDS family with 6 children. Ryan and I were both born and raised in Utah. We moved to the great state of Alaska 7 years ago and take full advantage of its long summer days. We love hiking, fishing, camping, 4-wheeling and it is common to find us just sitting around the kitchen table with a good board game or card game any time of the year. We hope and pray for lasting happiness for our children.

Tyler's New Job








This spring Tyler has taken on a job doing farm chores on Gardner's Farm for a few hours a day 3 days a week. I am very proud of him. He has been able to work, play Basball, and keep his grades up. He enjoys the farm animals. He sweeps the barn, feeds and waters the horses, sheep and a Llama and clans up after them. That is the nice way to say, he scoops poop. He also does random yard chores like shoveling snow, pruning bushes and when summer comes he will being doing some lawn mowing. The animals know who he is now and have learned his routine. It is fun to watch them follow him around. Tyler likes to show Conner and Aubrey the animals every once in a while. These pics were Aubrey's first time feeding the horse. Her name is Tosh. Tyler likes to brush her when she starts getting shaggy looking. This has been a good experience for him to learn to work hard and save money. Next Spring he and Braden are going on a trip with the high School band to Orlando and have to come up with $1800 to get there. Tyler has a pretty good start.
