Lake Powell 08

Bullfrog Bay on a calm and beautiful Sunday morning. Picture was taken from the ward house window. Pic on the left is Moki canyon, the giant sand hill that use to be there is not accessible by boat the water is too low. There was some wild life there, a small child looking beach gecko that was a real camera clown. He even had crude language skills some thing about gampa gampa gampa gampa, he possibly had some Linc to the Anasasi.

There was also some trophy sized fish caught and released. Alot of frolicing in the water and some great skiing and wake boarding. And finally at trips end there was an appearance by easy rider. All in all a good time was had by all. Those pesent- Jim, Deb, Nic, Jeff, Nate, Leslie, and Dawson, Linc, Evan.

Can we get some Lake Powell pix here please?

Break's over, back on your head! Come on and blog already!

PLEASE STAND BY...

Happy Birthday Nate!

SURPRISE! Happy Birthday to my favorite little brother! I still remember the day you were born. I was in 3rd grade and all day at school I couldn't wait to get home to find out if mom had her baby. I was so thrilled to find out that you were a boy so we could start having some boy toys in the house. However, dad didn't stop calling me "Boy" for at least another 4 years, and then I guess you got old enough to do fun things with him and were able to take over as his son :)

Hope you have a great day! Love, Nal

Happy Grandparents Day!

Thanks for being the best grandma and grandpa in the world! We love you!

"Tickle Me Evan"

Evan had the giggles today so I had to share them with everyone. Is there anything cuter than a baby's laugh? It is definitely contagious!

A Day Off

Finally a day to get some fresh air away from the rat race. Bo- Derick (adopted son) and I found a great atv trail by Spanish fork canyon. We arrived at the start of the trail about 9:00 Friday morning, wow what a brisk start , about 43 degrees as we left the truck. Needless to say the pace was a little slow until it warmed up. The trail was great, twist and turns and rocks, narrow trails along sheer cliffs and lots of beauty and serenity. The pic of the white trees and yellow flowers is somewhat misleading, the white tree trunks were not quakes but sun and weather bleached scrub oak that had burned about 7 years ago. As you can see vegetation comes back thicker after a fire. The other pic shows how much of the trail was shaded, kind of a tree tunnel. A great day in the great out doors.
