YW Camp

I loved girls camp! It was truly one of the best experiences I have ever had. I will always remember and cherish it. July 20th through the 23rd. We had a blast!!
























I had so much help and support. It was great! Dave was also extremely helpful and supportive, I couldn't have done it without him or my awesome assistant Candy.

Family Hike to Solitude Lake July 10th

I am only 2 months behind...July 10th now it's September 10th. It seems that is just the way it is for me this year.

I had the privilege to be the Young Women's Camp Director this year with our church.

In getting ready for camp we decided to go on the hike that I would be taking the girls on so there weren't any surprises and I would know what I was doing when the time came.

We had such a great time as a family. My kids loved it. After we were done, Ali asked if we could go on a hike every weekend. I am glad she enjoyed it so much, and happy that she loves the outdoors and can appreciate the beautiful world that was created for us to enjoy.











I also tried to figure out the settings on my camera. Wish I could remember which each setting was that I used now that I took the same picture with different settings, I don’t know which is which, but I like how some of them turned out.













I also like Zach's blue Gatorade lips...those lips really stand out in the photos. HA!
































































Hair Cut Blues

I usually take Zach with me when I have my hair done, so he can get a hair cut too. He usually needs one really bad by the time this day comes around.

Well this hair day, July 9th he didn't want his hair cut. I didn't do this to punish him. He just went straight to the corner all by himself to pout.

Yip - that's my Zach.


Maybe he will grow out of this one day. I sure hope so for his wife's sake.

4th of July 2009 - Great Day

My mom, the great took us to Cowabunga Bay on the 4th of July. My dad told her he wanted her to take the grandkids there this summer because every time they are with him in the car they freak out about how much they want to go there and how awesome it looks etc. So grandma was kind enough to fulfill grandpa's wishes. It worked out great because Colby was here from Idaho so he was also able to enjoy the sun with us.



Kenny and Hilerie, Emily and Ty met us over there a few hours later. Hilerie ran in the Riverton race with Andrea and Adrienne that morning. They were so cool and did great.




HAPPY KIDS!!!









AFTER A WHOLE DAY IN THE SUN WE WENT TO THE RIVERTON PARK TO WATCH THE FIREWORKS. WE HAD SUCH A GREAT DAY TOGETHER. OH THE MEMORIES. ;)
