Fall Break #1

For Fall Break this year we decided to go to Goblin Valley. My sister and two of my brothers came with us. We had a great time playing all weekend. Here is a picture of many of us up in a cave. We ran and played all day long. We saw some beautiful scenery. It was a great big playground for all ages.

The big boys had just as much fun as the kids they climbed and climbed. Everyone at the bottom didn't much like this sight as you will see in the next picture.

This is the full shot of the mountain the boys were trying to climb. From this view it was scary.

If I could figure out how to put these collage in one post I would do so, but I don't know how so they are all separte.

Fall Break

The kids had so much fun, climbing was the major activity and everyone joined in. BenBen was is heaven and he couldn't stop smiling. The weather was perfect, which made the trip one of the best of the year!

Fall Break 2009-3

Here are some of my favorite photos from Goblin Valley. The kids favorite was the Valley of the Goblins but I enjoyed Little Wild Horse Canyon.

Redwood trip

Here are a few pictures from our Redwood trip in August. I made this collage and never posted it. We had such a great time Everyones favorite part was the beach. If wasn't super warm but that didn't matter the kids loved playing in the water. The trees were amazing but most of all it was fun spending time as a family.

Lagoon Day 2

Day 2 was even better. The sun was shining and we had the whole day. I tried WICKED and loved it but Colossus right after made me nauseated. We went to Lagoon a Beach, played at the campground and rode many more ride. As you see in a few pictures it wore some us right out. What a great trip to spend with the kids. It was most fun just watching them laugh and smile. We have a great kids and love to be with them!!!

Camping at Lagoon

We woke up Thursday (July 2nd) with no specific plans but work in the yard, and clean the house. Darren had this day off cause ne normally has friday's off and it was considered a holiday. So we asked the kids what they wanted to do. Kylee suggested Lagoon. We responded with the usual "I don't think so!" And then Darren said why don't we! We could take the trailer and stay the night and do the bounce back and make it a camping trip. If you know us we usually don't pass up a good camping trip. So at the last minute we loaded up and were on our way. Can you tell by these pictures what happened on Thurdsday? The second we walked into the park it stared to rain. It drizzed all day long. We were soaked but look at those smiles. It was a blast. The evening turned out perfect with no rain and lots of fun riding.

4th of July Party

What a fun 4th of July party we had! The Thayn Family came over and we decorated t-shirts for the 4th. They all turned out so cute. Heather cut out a bunch of stars and sayings and we set them on the t-shirt and lightly sprayed them with spray paint. We must have forgot to tell Hannah about the lightly spraying part. Everyone was so creative and they were all awesome. We missed Todd's girls and not pictured are Kristie boys but they were there.-
