Ground Breaking for the new school

We are getting a new school building and were all excited to go scoop a shovel of dirt out at the new school site. It will be ready for the 2010/11 school year.

Lili's citizenship trip

The kids had the day off from school so we took the kids to Boise for the night to get Lili's US citizenship. We stayed at our favorite Residence Inn, took the kids to Chuck E Cheese for dinner and the zoo in the morning. We had a great time together and are happy to present the newest citizen of the United States!

digging our basement

We dug the hole for our basement for our house. We don't know when we will begin building but wanted the hole to be dug to avoid the mysterious water line under our property. So, in one photo no hole and in the other two the hole.

The newest Rich addition (isn't she cute)

(copied and pasted from my brother Greg's blog)

We wanted to get a picture out of our new baby. This is Sadie (no middle name yet) Rich, born 3-6-9(love the birthdate). Everything went well and mom and baby are doing great. We will probably be able to go home today from the hospital. Sadie has been plagued with PAC's (prematurue beats) and is continuing to have them. So far no one is really too excited about it, including me, and she has continued to look like a normal baby that likes to shoot out a few extra beats. Enjoy, Greg

Happy Birthday Leslie!

Happy Birthday to my sweet baby sister! I prayed many years for you before you were born - I wanted a sister so bad! Thanks for always being so kind. You are an amazing person and always see the best in everyone. I hope you have a great day! Love you!
