Blog Update At Last

I think this blog is a little past due......here's a snap shot of the last couple of months. I still have more to come but this is where I'm up to.......
Eagle Mountain Rodeo

I think Justin and Dusty fit in perfectly!

Rockin' the cowboy thing - this was the first rodeo for both of us and it was everything we'd hoped for!

Finally summer arrives and it's fun in the backyard with the kiddie pool

These three ducks made an appearance for 3 days in a row. The cat was scared on the first time and by the third he tried to attack them - surprisingly they didn't show up again!
Lake Powell some time in June....
The boat had an awesome slide off the back and we put it to good use - even the dog liked it! (Dusty will kill me for putting this photo up but it's too funny not to!)
You'd be surprised what you can slide down on!
Chillin' in the tube!

Hi-Jinx at night time

Look how much fun you can have on a pontoon boat

Ummm OK, maybe it wasn't such a good idea with guys

Yep, definitely not a good idea as they decided to jump overboard while we were going full speed - the boat took on water after this and half sunk....we had to bail it out but the motor was flooded and we were stuck in the middle of lake Powell taking on water.
Here we are getting rescued - lesson learned - don't go on a pontoon boat with 12 people plus a 100 pound dog when the limit is 9!!

Everyone is just happy to be alive - including Ray-Ray
Yep, we all made it back alive!
James turns 7 - how great this tree is for climbing??

They loved this spring

Happy Birthday!!! Yum that makes me want some cake!

One, two three.......

Surprise!!!

James took this photo - I think he's a natural!

The Grotto in Payson Canyon with the boys

and the family

James had to get all the way in

Dusty and I took a drive up into the mountains above Heber somewhere - it was so pretty

I love the mountains in summer!

Family photo time :)
We found this diner on the way back in the middle of no-where - we had to stop
It was so fun to eat at a diner in the middle of the mountains
Until next time........

Bearclaw looks ripped these days.

I'm fairly jealous.

Somehow my sedentary lifestyle of sitting at a computer for 90% of my waking hours isn't getting it done.

Yay for updates! You guys go a lot of places and do a lot of things :) I would bet money that Kyle and I were watching tv every time one of those pictures were taken. Of course, the fact that last time I tried to be active I blacked out and fell down doesn't help.

Sarah said...

Bearclaw is very dedicated to the workout thing! We can't stand to be in one place for long -it's a curse because you're never content!

Amy said...

What a fun update, I really don't even know where to begin my comments.

Crazy you guys had to be rescued! Ha

Loved the tree the boys were climbing in, and you guys do as much traveling as I do swimming. :)

Glad you guys updated, feel like we haven't seen you guys in forever (only because you were MIA for 4th of July AND Bear lake)

Shauna said...

You know those travel shows where the guy goes to all these places and hikes and hangs with the locals and stuff, you guys could definiteLy have your own show!!! And i love your swim suit!

Kelli said...

I sure hope that Dusty speaks in third person and calls himself Bearclaw constantly.

"Bearclaw want bagel. Bearclaw LOVES blasting his pecs."

Wow. You both look freaking fantastic. If I weren't so jealous I'd be overly happy for you...but you know, jealousy wins. Glad you're enjoying your summer. Looks like you are definitely making the most of your free time.
