Craft Night!

Craft Night with the girlies while the boys were at Priesthood. We made some blocks that had the seasons on each side so we could keep it out all year long! This was so much fun! We used Dad's printer to pirnt out the stickers in our favorite fontswith all of the seasons so everyone could pick out what fonts they wanted to use! Thanks for such a fun night Ladies!!!

We had a ton of fun and couldn't stop painting/decorating when it was time for dinner. We had so much fun with Mom, Court, Ash, Grams, Stacey, Pam and Tiffy. Not all of us did the blocks so in some of the pictures you'll see other projects around! We had so much fun and can't wait until we do this again!

Here is how my Blocks turned out!

Then the guys got back and turned on a football game! It was awesome! =)

Our First Time Camping!

So I got home the other day and Tim randomly asked if I wanted to go camping!? So we hurry and packed up ... went and got Steve's truck and headed up to Bountiful peak. On our way up we stopped on the side of the canyon in the perfect spot to watch the sunset since I'm in love with them! Anyways, we got up there and found a campsite and started to find some wood for our fire! Tim took an ax and started to chop the rest of a dead tree down so we could put it in the fire, while i found some kindling and started making a teepee. Tim found a bunch more sticks and our fire turned out awesome! We had a blow up mattress so we could put it in the back of the truck... but we didn't realize that it was about 2 feet thick! haha and we only had a hand blow up pump so it took us ab out an hour to blow up the whole mattress. Once we were done and sweating a lady came over from the campsite next to us and asked if we needed an electrical pump, haha a litte too late! So then we started up our fire and roasted marshmallows and made s'mores and roasted some mamba's... MMMMM SOOO YUMMY! =) We then got all of our bedding ready and watched a movie on Tim's laptop! It was a great way of camping ... even though we were frozen the next morning! Haha we had a BLAST!

Fun Cooking!

Ok so I went and saw Julie and Julia with Jettilyn a couple of weeks ago and it made me want to cook. So I decided that I would cook for Tim before he got home from school. I decided to make something healthy and yummy so I cooked some Salmon. First time ever cooking this dish! I turned out to be pretty deliciuos! Tim loved it, and I liked it ... I'm not s huge fish fan but i'm liking it more and more! We're also going to Alaska this next week so I get to try the good seafood!!! =) Yay can't wait!

I'm now attempting to cook a new meal once a week while Tim is at school at nights. =) I can't wait to see what will happen with that! Hopefully I will keep it up!

Lake Powell Again!

So I know that I just did a post about Powell ... but we went again luckily! We had a blast! It was perfect weather... hot hot hot and warm water! Yay! It was perfect! =) Grams and Gramps came with us; Casey and Michelle; and Andee my favorite girl ever came along too!!! I have to say that I absolutely love Lake Powell and couldn't ever get sick of going each year. So Tim had to work for the weekend cuz they had a huge event at the Miller Raceway for work. So I was under the impression that he would not be joining us for Lake Powell... little did I know ... he was surprising me. Everyone went out on the last run of the day and I decided to stay on the houseboat with mom, dad, grams and gramps. I was too in to my book to set it down (which is very abnormal for me if any of you know me haha). Anyways it was getting darker and the boat still wasn't back. I kept asking my mom why they weren't back yet ... little did I know, they were picking up Tim at the Marina. When the boat got back, my mom hinted to me to come and help catch the boat on the back of the houseboat, and I simply said "Oh they'll be fine, they've got plenty of people on the boat." So I started to walk into the kitchen when I saw Tim running to the front of the houseboat to greet me!!! I love my husband! It turned out to be the best trip ever! =)

Check out the CURL in Dan's hair! haha it's awesome!

Tim and I working on our tricks! =) We love to wakeboard!

Summer Fun!

Tim and I at the Widowmaker with Rockwell. We definately forgot our sunscreen ... the next day... we had definate sunglass marks on our faces haha it was pretty funny. Me watchin my baby from the top of the semi. Getting a good view of the riders climbing up the widowmaker. Havin a good time!

Rodeo Time!

We went to the Camas rodeo with a bunch of friends and had a blast! It was my very first Rodeo and i loved it!

Here is Danny and Cassidy Back some of our very close friends! Other friends that came were Tyler, Camille, Matt & Mal johns, and Greg and Lauren Sodoberg! It was tons of fun! We went boating the next day and had a great time but my camara battery died and so I didn't get to take many pictures! =)
We decided that I really need a hat and boots for next year! =)

Sun Valley with the Goalen's

The whole Goalen Gang that went up! =)

Mark and Peyton on our long bike ride! Steve! He and Jeannie were champs on this bike ride. Steve had his camara and was loving the picture taking.

This really was so hard to take this picture... We almost crashed! Good thing the helmet was on haha.

Peyton, Kaders and I eating our yummy creamies! We these boys would come and wake Tim and I up by pounding on our door! haha They were so fun to be around. The best part was when Kaders and I were on a team together playing cards! He's such a good helper!

Cute Peyton at the beginning of our journey, he was such a trooper and did the whole 10 mile bike ride! It was so fun to see his little legs truckin along a lot faster than everyone else's! =)

Little Courtney and Ben! These 2 did great! They were so happy most of the time and just loved being in their little buggy.

Little Kaders having a ball! He's just the cutest little guy ever!

We had a blast on this trip! Thanks to Steve for getting everything set up and ready to go so we could all have an enjoyable time. Tim and I can't wait until we get to go on the cruise in September with everyone. It's going to be a blast!

Lake Powell in June!

Lake Powell was so much fun! We had a fun football game going along the beach! Haha It was a blast... except that all of our suits were full of sand!

Jettilyn and I!!!
Good game of scum up ontop of the houseboat.
The girlies!

So there is a really funny story that goes along with this.... Tim was wakeboarding, and someone in the boat decided to throw the football to him so he could catch it. Didn't quite make it there so we kept turning around and around trying to pick it up! Finally Tim got it and threw it back to the boat where it bounced off one of the wake boards and fell back into the water... right then Danny jumped into the water after the football! Tim still wakeboarding didn't see him jump in and Danny finally came up out of the water right next to Tim! Tim almost ran Danny over. It was pretty funny but kinda scary at the same time! haha

Tim and I ... I couldn't get him to smile! Court and I burfing ... A.K.A bum surfing. It's the greatest wambo/word combo. =) This was so much fun! A lot easier than last year! haha =)

Ash and I with our awesome wind blown hair. Lake powell brings out the best looks in people I swear! haha

I love boating!
