Owls Game

While Angie was in town we went to an Orem Owls Baseball game. The kids love doing anything and everything with their cousins. They had a great time watching the game, playing at the park, and of course rolling down the grassy hill. We also got an extra bonus they had fireworks at the end of the game. It was a perfect night to be hanging outside with family. It even ended great with the Owls winning!!!

Last Baseball Game

At Preston's last game the boys all got a trophy. They were very excited. He had such a great time & is counting down until the season starts again. I have to admit I am not the first I have never been a huge baseball lover. But there is just something about watching your son out there that makes it so much fun. I am excited to see him grow over the years and just get better and better!

P.G. Strawberry Rodeo

My boys look so forward to going to the Rodeo. Korey and I not so much. So we have decided that it is an every other year event. This year we went. It is a lot better not having a baby to try and entertain. The boys thought it was great! McKay was gone so it was just the three little boys. But they had fun playing with there cousins. Parker's favorite part was the Buffalo, or as he calls them "Minotaur"! Yes that is right, that is what he thinks they are called. He is the coolest kid ever!


I swear they love each other!


Even at the Rodeo Parker brings some of his guys!

Summer Fest

When we got home from Moab it was raining and we were so sad because we thought that there would be no Orem Summer Fest. What is summer with out a little summer fest. It always seems to bring out the finest of people. Which does not say much about us because we look forward to going every year. Well the rain stopped and the sun came out about an hour before the parade was about to start. So we headed over. After the parade we went to the church to set up our spot for the fireworks. I have to say that I think Orem has the best firework show all summer. Her is our crazy crew watching the parade. You just never know who is going to show up.

Moab

This past weekend we had planned a family camp out with my family. As the time got closer more and more people kept bailing on us. Soon it was my Mom and my Brothers family. The morning we were suppose to leave we checked the weather and it looked yucky the whole time we were suppose to be gone. So we checked other places around Utah that were not to far of a drive. Moab looked as if it was to have nice weather the whole weekend. So we finished packing and headed out. Since we changed spots at the last minute no one came with us. It was actually kind of fun to just have our little family together. I was nervous the kids would get bored without there cousins there to entertain them. But the boys all got along really well and had a lot of fun together. We decided to stay at a KOA campground which we have never done before. It had its good and bad things about it. The good things were the pool, showers, flush toilets. The bad was how tiny the campsites are. We felt as if we were sharing one site with everyone else in the campground. The day we got there we just hung out and set up camp. Then Korey took the boys swimming while I made dinner. The next day we woke up ate & headed to the Arches. It was so pretty & the weather could not have been better. It was over casted with a slight breeze. Which made it great to go on all the little trails to see the sights. The boys had a blast climbing up the huge boulders and finding caves and cracks to hide in. Later that day we found a picnic spot to eat lunch. Then after we saw all the things we wanted to see we headed for some Indian writings. When we finally found them it was really neat. I have no idea how they got so high to write on the rocks, or what they said. But we just made up our own stories to go with the pictures. After that we headed back to camp. Korey took the boys swimming once again while I made dinner. Then we hung out for the evening. The next morning it was raining like crazy. So we put the boys in the van turned on a movie while Korey & I took down camp. Then we went to Denny's to eat. It was a fast trip but it was a lot of fun. I love that my boys love to be outdoors and to be together. We had a great time just hanging out!

This is our camp site. Pepper was there to keep guard.

My Sister was nice enough to let us use her tent. It is so much bigger than ours.


The boys thought Balance Rock was so cool



We had a lot of fun walking up to the Window Arch. We took a different way down and the boys had a great time going all over the rocks.

That is my boys way up in the rocks


Christmas card photo time










They thought this little cave was cool


By the time we got to Delicate Arch we were all to tired to hike to it. So we just went to the different view points to take a look.


Here is just some pretty pictures of things we saw





I wish I knew what these things said
