We have had so much fun with Sam and Amanda this summer! It is great being the "in-towners" together. We see each other at Sunday dinner, birthday parties, and every once in a while at Mom and Dad's house. 
They are both working hard in school and at work and they discipline themselves which I think is very impressive. They even make time to have fun and you can tell they are a happy couple.

Sometime ask them about there recent couples dating experiences with their friends in their ward. It's funny.
At the beginning of May, Sam and I did the St. George Triathlon. It was so fun getting ready and talking about our training. I was really glad to have someone else do it with me. The trip was a blast too. We had a lot of fun swimming, laying out, eating out, and of course doing the race. When is the next race/trip?
Amanda and Josh were great to be our cheering squad / babysitter.

Sam recently had a big birthday!
Since Sam is such a caring husband, he bought his sweet wife a bike for HIS birthday.
Luckily she is a cycling teacher and can show him how to use HIS new bike. (Yes he got a bike too.)
She has been teaching cycling classes all summer at 6:30 a.m. She has awesome music (so I hear and I think she even had a beach day and was going to give the people leis to wear while riding). Someday I am going to be in your spin class...just you wait.
Amanda and Sam have been good friends to Kim as she has gone through some rough things recently. They are the first ones she calls to talk about any troubles and just last week they bought her Cafe Rio and sat with her after she hurt her knee in a soccer game. Some of the siblings said that they are way too nice. I'd have to agree. Next time I need something, I'm calling them. 
Hooray! Sam and Amanda got out on the boat this last week. 
When I asked Josh if he had anything to contribute to this post he said that, "Sam and Amanda are the hippest couple in the family!" Need we say more? No really we think you are such a fun couple and I was telling Lindsay just the other day that I think you two really are great together. You are happy and you take care of each other. That is so important and you do it well.

Sam is still the first one to volunteer to ski and he shows us all up! It is awesome to watch someone perform with such grace and intensity. Seriously, it is really fun to watch Sam ski!
Yes, Amanda has been converted...she loves being on the boat too. It's fun to have her there although she is still hiding her wakeboarding skills until she can really show us all up in July, at Hebgen. Look out boys!
This last picture is my favorite. This typifies Sam and Amanda. They are incredible to our kids. Last week they called and offered to let Josh and me go out on a date while they tended. It was a Friday night and we stayed out late and they were still happy when we got back. It really meant a lot to us both to be able to go out on a date together and we didn't worry about the kids. We knew they were in good hands. You can tell the kids love their uncle Sam and aunt Amanda!
