Huntington 2021

Vivian was so excited for our trip she wore her goggles and snorkel on the ride down.

We love our trips to Huntington, we usually go in the middle of the week so we pretty much have the whole lake to ourselves. This year was no exception. We had some rainy weather, but we had a blast, and as always the sky's were amazing.

We love that Amber likes driving her boat. She takes the kids out and keeps them out all day! Aunt Amber is the best!

If they weren't out on the water they were in the mud! Which I hate, but they love. It is a good thing they have showers close by for us to use.

We also played some Kube and glow in the dark Ultimate Frisbee.

 

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day Mike!

Me and Mike dated for 3 years! I remember praying, asking if I should marry him. I never felt like I received an answer. One thing I knew for sure was that he would be an amazing dad. Looking back now I can see that my prayers were being answered, just not in the way I expected them to be.

I am so grateful for Mike, he really is the best Dad! He would do anything for his kids. He works so hard for us, we never want for any thing. I know if anyone asked the kids who was their favorite parent is they would say Mike, and I wouldn't even feel bad about it, because he is the best!

 

Camping up North Fork

We took the trailer up North Fork for a few days. We have gone up South Fork serval times, this was our first time up North Fork. 

Amber took me and Jaime up to ride our bikes a couple of weeks ago, we love it and decided to try and camp.

We found great spots right by the river.

We went on a fun, very steep hike.

The kids spent most of their time in the little river. We played some Pounce. Me, Jaime, and Amber had to come home Friday night for our soccer game. On our way back up we saw an amazing sunset! All the fires this year has made for some spectacular sunsets.

 

Happy Birthday Jaycee!

Happy Birthday Jaycee! How can she be 14 already?

Jaycee is the best! She loves to be organized, her room is almost always clean, she even helps Vivian clean her side of the room. She is the best big sister, she is always playing with her siblings and she takes good care of them. She is so fun! She loves soccer and basketball. She loves water...any water. She is always the first one in and the last one out. She is a hard worker, a good student, and a great friend.

This year we went swimming at Joys again, this time she invited her friends from school. We had pizza and watermelon.

Happy Birthday Jaycee!

 

Memorial Day Weekend

We head down to Brianhead for Memorial day weekend. We went on some beautiful hikes, a really long bike ride that almost killed some of us, and played some games.

It was a great trip.

On our way home stopped at some cemetery's.

On our bike ride Tyson and my mom drove us to the top of the trail and they were going to meet us at the bottom. Amber told them we would be gone for an hour or two...well it took us more like 4 or 5 hours. We got lost. We went up a dirt road for way too long. My dads lips were actually turning blue! Once we got on the trail we made pretty good time. Jaycee fell on one of the switch backs, then Amber crashed when she came to see what was taking us so long. We also had to stop several time to put air in my tire. Tyson and my mom were driving around trying to find us, thinking they missed us some how. Also there was no cell service for the drivers. We had service up in the mountain. Amber ended up leaving us and went down to try and find our drivers. By some miracle she found them!

Overall, it was a fun ride and I would totally do it again.

The little kids did so good in the car while they were trying to find us, but they wanted to ride too, so we took them to a little fish pond to ride for a bit.

Brianhead was so fun, I would love to go back sometime!
