Merry Christmas!!

We had a wonderful Christmas at my parents house this year.  I absolutely love this time of year.  It makes me so incredibly happy!

4th of July fun never stops!!

We have a family tradition of going to Pine View every summer to play, have a bbq, and ski and wake board.  It is honestly one of my favorite places on earth.  This year, however, I was not able to ski due to the back injury.  I did get in the water and had a great time playing in the sun. This is a pic of Grandpa chillin in the sun.

Isaac had more fun just playing with the water faucet.

Ok and in the mud

It was such a beautiful day!

Spencer forced Isaac into the lake.  He was not the happiest person ever. That water is cold!

Cute Hallie came to dinner that night with all the adults at Carlos and Harley's.  It was delicious!  What a fun-filled day

4th of July Fun

4th of July weekend we had a complete blast doing family things.  I think the 4th of July is one of my favorite holiday's!  I love to celebrate our fantastic country and the freedoms we enjoy.  We went up to Monte Cristo and had a complete blast 4 wheeling.  I had to take it easy because of the back, but still had a blast. 

Cute Chase with Aunt Kim

Jack absolutely loved playing with rocks in the grass and trees

Noah loved playing on the 4 wheel trailor

I took an easy going ride for about 10 mins.  I think I may have hit 10mph at one time.  I was sooooooo careful!  Did not want to hurt my back again.

Cute Caden preparing to ride ATV

Noah is all smiles for Aunt Kim

My niece Allison met a boy that came up with Brooke and Spencer from AZ.  His name is Dokken and he was so much fun for her to hang out with.  It was so adorable!!  They got along so well and had a great weekend together.

We set up camp in a great little cove. It was such a beautiful day!

We may have finally exhausted Noah

Reid and Val going for a couples ride.  Unfortunately I am not a couple, so I stayed back with the kiddos

Chase finally got the guts to shake Jack's hand. It sure was cute.

Noah and Isaac found the fire pit and enjoyed getting soot all over themselves.  What a mess!!

What a great way to spend the day!
