Snow King Mountain

Well, I am still in Wyoming and Mac and I hiked Mount Snow King yesterdy just for fun. It was a beautiful day, 67 degrees, a little bit of wind, absolutly perfect. The mountain is 8005 ft to the summit. It took us about an hour to hike the 2 mile trail and only 30 min to get down.

This is from the top looking down. That is all of Jackson Hole

This is the Hotel we stayed in. My room is on the top floor, 2nd window from the end. The mountian in the background is Snow King Mountain.

Here is a sweet pic of all of Jackson Hole and the Grand Teton mountain range.

The primary presidency

Here is a picture of Lisa’s primary presidency. For those of you who don’t know, Lisa serves in our church in the children’s organization, the primary. Here is a picture (from L to R) of Tracy Shields, Lisa, Joy Toone, Cassie Larson, and Rose Polvado. These women have way too much fun with each other and with the kids.

Baseball park visit 2008- St. Louis

In 2004, my dad, Kyle McGinn, David Hardgrave, and myself began a tradition (or continued a tradition) to visit a different ball park every summer. In 04 we went to bean town and saw a game at Fenway. In 05 we had some deep dish pizza and went to Wrigley field in Chicago. 06 got cancelled in leau of my wedding to the most beautiful woman in the world. 07 also got deferred because I was stuck in FL completing my training school. In 2008, it was on again. Because I had recently moved to the St. Louis area, and also because they have a very new park, we decided to host the 2008 visit. We had a great time and we also got to go down on the field and take pics on the warning track before the game. My only regret is that we didn't take more pics. As an added bonus, my sister Beth got reinstated to the tradition, along with life long friends Aaron Lansford and Ryan McGinn.

My baby and I.

Here are my boys and I. We've all come a long way.

In Nauvoo with the Olsen's

Here we are in Historic Nauvoo. We went there with our good friends Nate and Katy Olsen. It was awesome. We only spent one day in Nauvoo and the next morning in Carthage. It was an awesome experience and we recommend it to everyone. It renewed our testimonies of the prophet Joseph Smith and all that he did to bring the world the truth. The highlight of the trip was the pageant. The spirit was so strong there and it was absolutly amazing.
To all my Texans, please notice the blue bonnets. Don't worry, I kept them sacred and did not touch.




Nate and I are throwin' up our ice in this pic (by ice I mean the nails that they converted into rings).

Andy in Wyoming

On Aug 16, I came out to Jackson, WY for work and on the 18th I was able to go to Yellowstone and see Old Faithful. It was pretty awesome. We saw buffalo and some pretty cool nature. Even Mr. T was able to participate. Enjoy the pics. Wish you guys were here.

This is my homeboy/coworker Jeremiah. He is chillin with me out here in the W-Y.

The story behind this picture is that this Mr. T has been a lot of cool places with me and from now on, everywhere I go, he goes and I am going to try and take some cool pics of him.

Tatonka!!

Baby at 8 weeks

Well, for those of you who don't know, Lisa is pregnant!!! We went to the OBGYN today and they took an ultrasound and we got to see our little 1.7cm fetus and HEAR THE HEART BEAT!!! It was so amazing. It makes me wonder what we have done to have been so blessed. Here is the picture of the ultrasound. Even with the Dr. pointing things out, I still have no idea what is what.
