A couple of weeks ago, I rented The Music Man because I wanted to watch it, but I wasn't sure how it would go over with the kids. Well, they loved it. We watched it two nights in a row, and they've been walking around singing 76 Trombones and Gary, Indiana, and Goodnight, Ladies. The boys told me that they especially liked, "those four guys who sing together." The Babershop Quartet! Me, too. It must be in our blood. So, anyway, I'm trying to weasel Tracy, Ryan, Rusty, and Ryan's friend Dallin (who sings bass) into learning some babershop music. I've even ordered some for them. We'll take them over to sing for Grandma and Grandpa Taylor. If I can get them to do it.

Here's Ryan marching in Salem Hills High School's first ever marching band in their first ever parade -- Salem Days. They sounded great!
Some of our garden bounty. Mmmmm. Still waiting for the watermelon to ripen.

Some shots from our day camp up in Hobble Creek Canyon. We couldn't spend the night, so we just spent the day from lunch until it got dark.
This is what our front yard looks like, but not for long...
