SMF 2009

The SMF reunion was at Camp Mary by Bryce Canyon, it was so fun. Scott and Kjirsten were in charge of it this year and they did an awesome job. We had fun hiking, fishing, visiting and playing games. It was pretty cold at night but we were prepared for it so we didn't freeze too bad. Kamren ran up this hill and sat in this arch.
Brinley, our new little lab puppy was introduced to water for the first time, she really liked it as long as she could touch the bottom and her nose did not get wet.


Kamren caught a few fish in the little creek.

Kolton caught a ton of fish in the Reservoir.



Kamren got sick of fishing and thought that throwing a fit would help, it didn't. Brinley tried to help him feel better, she didn't.




70-miler

The boys and I decided to go for a ride the other day, we went from our house up to Maverick and filled up both bikes with gas, and then we headed for the hills, up the frontage road, through Summit and then up the mountain. It was such a pretty day. We got pretty far up the mountain and I said we better head back because the little bike has a very small gas tank, the boys weren't ready to turn around so we ended up going all the way to Brian Head we filled the tanks again there and then had some ice cream.
Then we headed home, it ended up being 70 miles total. Wow it was really fun. Some of the pictures are taken from a look out that makes you feel like you are on top of the world.

The boys love riding, I guess that I do too.






Cottonwood Relief Society

We had a really great time at the RS sleep over. It was at the Hunter's cabin in Right Hand canyon. I took our 4-wheeler and was able to go on some fun rides. This pic is blurry and crooked because we were really on this slanty hill.
Fun times, the wild flowers were so pretty.

OOPs, I got a little bruise on my thigh on this trip. Big bump on the 4-wheeler=big bruise on the leg. It was still fun.

New Castle

We spent a day at New Castle Fishing and swimming, it was really nice to all be together. Kolton caught this 'massive' small mouth bass.
Kamren caught this little tiny wiper.

Kolton tried to learn how to dive....he was not too successful.


Allen was trying to show him how to dive head first...feet last.



Kolton and Allen...look at those eyes.

24th of July in Logan

Ok don't be scared but I am actually updating our blog. I have been so busy with school and work that I have not been able to take time to up date since Kolton's B-day (December). I only have one more semester left of school and maybe life can be a little more normal, whatever that is.

The Rootbeer Reunion. Kort, Braden and Trey (he is hiding in the back with the drums) We spent the 24th of July in Logan, with Jon, Becky and boys, we got to see our favorite band play 'The Rootbeer Reunion' it was so fun to watch the show, and Kort what happened to your pants??? Kamren listens to their CDs almost every night when he goes to bed, but we had not ever been to a show.
Kort, Trey and Kamren watching the pie eating contest.

Kamren, Kort, Kolton and Trey watching the parade, from the back.


The front side of the handsome dudes. Kolton and Kamren spent the night and fished, swam, rode motorcycles, chased chickens and got really really dirty. They had a blast. We are so lucky to have such a great family.



Brinley the NEW puppy.

We got a new puppy last week, her name is Brinley. It took us a few days to decide on a name everyone had a different idea of what to call her. She is a yellow lab. Kolton stayed home for two days to baby sit while Allen and I worked, he got kind of bored, but he also got really attached.


Kamren's Baptism

Kamren was baptized in May, these are the Sister missionaries that came to our house to teach Kamren. Our family.









Fishing Highlights



I caught this large mouth out of Sand Hollow, Kolton was taking the picture and thought he should cut off part of the fish so that there was no proof as to how much bigger my fish was than his.

Kolton , I think it is pretty obvious.



Kamren at Lake Powell




Allen at Sand Hollow


Almost a 5 pound large mouth.






Yet another toad out of Sand Hollow.
