Water fun!

This summer we have spent as much time swimming as we can the boys love pools but we have most of our fun at the lakes and rivers.


Mclane loved to head up stream and float down to Adrian

Save me Keani!!

Nice and shady
Floating down the river
The dogs love it as much as we do!
You want me to do what???


Pirate Tave



Tavin is warming up to the water the more we go!

Garden

The last two weeks we have been working on our front garden. I hated the bushes that were taking over the front of the house. So I asked Adrian to rip them out and he gladly did by hooking them up to the truck and happily ripped them out.

The middle



And After!!
After much work (mostly on Adrian's part) This is our new front garden!! I love it, I have beautiful flowers and some strawberry plants that will have berries on them in a few weeks!!

Warning!!

The next 7 posts are of our trip this month they are long and have a ton of fun picts
Have fun looking at them all, we sure had fun making all the memories!

The trip home

On our trip home we decided to go over the Aspen pass. It was so beautiful and kind a chilly it was 52* and we were just over 12thousand feet and could see the highest point in Colorado that is just under 15 thousand feet!





Awesome views and a cute little boy!






Last stop Panguitch

After we left Erin and Jordan's we headed back to Panguitch for a couple of days before going home.

Mclane wanted to sleep out on the trampoline. That was one of my favorite things to do as a kid in the summer! They lasted till about 4 in the morning when it started to rain. 


We made it back just in time for the Clove family reunion, I didn't have my camera so no picts of that other than of Mclanes injury he was trying to climb a hill with the big kids and slipped and fell.



On our last day there we went up to the gorge to have a cook out and just enjoy that beautiful area. And there is so much to do...

Lots of relaxing,



Target shooting,

Lots of shooting,



Playing with fire,




Always plenty of moms wonderful Dutch oven cooking,


a little but of rain,  and finding ways to keep dry! 


Poncho, poncho man, I want to be a poncho man!!

   More pouting from Tavin, not sure why this time.






Alyssa didn't like the smoke in her face and would ask us to splash water on her, Leave it to Katie to come up with a better way!


Tavin gave up on the whole out door thing and sat in the truck watching a movie!

Justin and Adrian decided that they were going to try and make fire using cave man methods


About an hour later still nothing, maybe next time guys!
We had a wonderful vacation and this was a great way to end it!

Erin and Jordans house

After Oregon we headed back to my sisters house and got to spend a couple of relaxing days with her and her family.
Adrian and Jax ( I love this cute little boy even if he doesn't like me to much)


The first day there we went to the swimming pool at the Aquatic center the boys loved the slide.





Hi Erin!


The second day there we went down to Jungle Jim's. Its like a mine in door amusement park
Tavin and Adrian on the carousel. 


A blurry pict of Mclane.





As you can see I don't think Tavin had any fun!!  Poor kid. ;)










Bumper cars, Mclane and Bostyn got to drive their own.



Tavin and mom, he did good at driving his favorite part was crashing into Clane! 
(I still have bruises on my legs from that ride)
We are glad the we could spend some time with Erin, Jordan and their kids, and appreciate them letting us crash at their place on our way to and from Oregon!
