Red Rock Canyon

We went to St George and it rained and snowed. It made things look very different and still very pretty. Red Rock Canyon was a nice visit. We want to go back and see the Anasazi ruins. The carved rocks and very old trees were really interesting. The tree Dave is sitting under curves over and down the hill. He is standing in one tree.

Tyler G.'s Visit

We went to McKee's to see the animals. They had some cute Alpaca's that I got to feed. The cutest little critters were the three little boys who put themselves in jail--Daxon, Hayes, and Asher.

Mike and Tonya Visit

Mike's family came for a visit. It was so good to see Tonya out in her turtle shell. She broke her back falling off a ladder a couple of months ago. She hasn't been out of her home for a long time. Thanks for your visit! We are so glad to see you doing better!

Cousins

Myles stayed over for the Christmas break. He, Eric, Paul, and Vinny had a great time. They made models, went to the lego display at the mall, and even had a sleep over.

Snow, Snow, Snow

We went to Mackay to fix a leak and the snow was beautiful. There are many more fisherman houses on the reservoir this year. We enjoyed some of the catch from one of out neighbors. They are catching Kokenee(sp?) salmon and they are really tasty.

Trip to Denver

We went to Denver in mid-December to visit and we really loved it. We saw Tyler's new home and where he worked, visited and played with Josh. Thanks for the fun! We then went to Angie and Colby's. We saw their new Wheaten Terrier - sweet dog. We went to a place called White Fence farm and ate and played. We visited and had a good time. Thanks for the nice time!

Hi Everyone,
I just haven't put a new post for a long time. I think about it and look at yours, but just haven't done it.

My Mother's Passing

On August 13th my mother passed away. She had been very ill for a long time, but she is very much missed. Her funeral was lovely as she would have wanted. All her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were there. The pictures were precious and will be treasured. Here are some:

Sun Valley

We decided to try the road to Sun Valley. It is about 50 miles over the mountain and very pretty. Hailee was named after a town near Sun Valley. It was her birthday, so we took her to see it and play along the way. We took pictures of having lunch by the pond and sitting in the warm springs river.

Boating in Mackay

We have had a fun time with our boat in Mackay this year. Nathan, Angie W, their cousins Steve and James, Angie J, and LeeAnn's families have all enjoyed the fun. I didn't get pictures of everyone, but you will get the idea.

Summer Fun Times

This summer we have had such nice times. We have recently had the Wilson's from Kansas visit us in Mackay and the next week the Johnston's from Colorado and then we were with Dave's kids at Snowbird. Here are some of my favorite pictures.

Mike, Angie, and Nathan's Families at Powder

Here are the three families that were at Powder. I am always amazed at how wonderful you all are doing. Your families tell it all.

Families at Powder Ridge

We had a good time at Powder. It rained and snowed as a cloud seemed to stay on the mountain top. So, we swam, played games (our favorite being the kids game of ghost), and visited. We went to the valley to fish, boat, go to the park, visit the petting farm and see Emmalee's final baseball game. Thanks kids for coming. We missed Tyler and Chad's families very much and hope to see your families soon. We know it is hard in these times to have everyone there, but we will keep at it and hope to have as many as possible.

Nightime on a 4/wheeler

There is nothing like a night ride.

Mackay with Hiedi and LeeAnn's Families

We went to Mackay with Hiedi's family. LeeAnn was able to come up for a few days and we all had a great time. It was the first time we took our new boat out on the reservoir. Here are a few pictures of the week.
