I got to go on a Humanitarian Mission last week - I will always remember this day. I had an amazing time playing with the kids, playing soccer and sharing in this cultural experience. I have played hundreds of soccer games, this was by far the best game I ever got to participate in. I look forward to a few more of these experiences before I come home.

Monster Truck

Now this was one big monster truck. Connor loved it.

This is the Burana Tower from the 11th Century. It's all that is left from a royal palace that once stood here. The tower used to be twice as tall. This tower is on what used to be the Silk Road (think Marco Polo).

Lucky Peak Camping

We had a great time camping at Lucky Peak. I was a little rusty behind the boat and definately sore the next day.
We were so pround of Connor who finally decided (after his cousins had gotten in the tube) that he was a big boy and wanted to be pulled behind the boat too.

Fruits of your labors

Just a few things that came out of the garden this summer.
