Camping

This weekend was the opening of the archery elk hunt. Trevor is hunting this hunt and wanted to take me and the boys camping. My Dad and Mom offered to let us use their motor home and four wheeler to take camping and of course we couldn't pass up the offer! We had a lot of fun spending time as a family four wheeling, looking for elk and just being up in the mountains.

I could live up in the mountains I had so much fun with my family!

The sunset was beautiful. A great way to end a great day!

Karson playing with his truck at camp.

Kellen playing with Dad's head phones.

Kellen making a pickle with his fingers. Me and the boys play this game all the time, even little Karson makes a pickle with his fingers and says "tickle, tickle!" That's basically the game you say " break the pickle" and when the person breaks the pickle you make with your index fingers you tickle them and say "tickle, tickle!" I know it sounds really lame, but the boys love it and its funny to watch them do it.

Karson tickling Kellen.

Trevor cutting wood. I helped out a little bit by putting the wood in the truck and stacking it for him, but the boys got bored fast and so I mostly played with the boys I defiantly got the better end of the deal! Me and the boys had fun!

While Trevor was cutting wood I took the boys to the lake to throw rocks and play in the sand. While walking down to the lake Kellen stopped and picked me a flower he is such a sweet boy I love him!

Young Family Reunion

Grandma Fransworth's side of the family the Youngs had a family reunion down at the park. Before the reunion got started Trevor's family had some family pictures taken. We then had a delicious lunch together. I didn't stay much longer after lunch, because Karson was tired and ready for a nap and I would rather Karson have a good long nap rather then facing the wrath of Karson. My parents stopped by for a bit so it was nice to visit with them.

Trev, Stev, Rory, & Ryan had fun playing a couple of games of volleyball.

Kellen loved hanging out with Jess. Trev said that he also had fun at the games.

Kellen taking his turn at the pinata.

What handsome boys they are!

FHE and Seven Peaks

For a family home evening one night Trevor's family met at Mandy's for a yummy barbecue. After the barbecue we all went to the Manti pool and swam. The boys (Trev, Stev, & his brothers) had fun throwing each other in the water and having swim races. When we first got to the pool Kellen didn't want anything to do with the water slide, but some how Stev talked him into going on it with him and the rest of the night he loved it, Karson kept pointing at the slide so Trevor took him on the slide as well and he loved it!

Karson loves the water!

I love my boys!

Here they come!

After the boys were done swimming we got them in there PJs. There was music playing so Kellen started dancing. He is such a cute boy!

The next day me and the boys went to Seven Peaks with Cassie and her girls. I had only been to Seven Peaks once when I was like 12 for a Scow family reunion and I didn't remember much about it, except for a slide called the boomerang that scared the crap out of me! Some how Cassie talked me in to going on that slide with her, but it wasn't as scary as I remembered it. Most of the time we were there Kellen and Karson played at a little kid pool that had slides just their size. It was a fun day I am glad we got to go with Cassie and the girls.

Kellen going down one of the little kid slides. He loved it!

These girls are so much fun!

I had my share of going down the little kid slides with Karson, he couldn't get enough of it!

Scow Family Reunion

This year for the Scow family reunion we stayed in a nice cabin up in the Cedar Mountains right by Bryce Canyon. The cabin location was awesome it was in a secluded area with a nice yard and a beautiful pond right next to it! There was plenty of toys and fun things in the yard for the kids to play with. Kellens favorite was a castle play house. Us adults had fun playing some volleyball and playing a newly wed game that Shalee put together for us couples. We had fun taking the boys on a paddle boat ride in the pound as well.

Tiffany brought pop tops and some ribbon for us to make bracelets with the kids. This is Kellen and Tyson showing me their bracelets.

The bracelets were fun to make and I thought they looked pretty cool too!

I even made little Karson a bracelet. He didn't wear it much, but he liked to play with it.

Trevor and Nick showing off their mad bow skills....

You can just call him Robin Hood! Trevor shot an arrow that split an arrow he had shot before. This is a picture of Trev holding the arrows still stuck together. 

Cammie brought her bow as well, so I thought I would give it a go! Other than the pulling the string back part it wasn't so bad! I didn't miss the target so I guess that means I did ok....

Our little family getting ready to hike out to the waterfall.

The Family...except for Nick, Mason, and Korver....they kind of got cut out of the picture, but they are still part of the family!

The waterfall was coming out of a cave. Shalee and Kyle thought it would be fun to climb in the cave and so they did. The crazies!

My cute boys on the way back from the waterfall I just love them!

We also went in an ice cave that the pioneers had used to keep meat and other foods from spoiling. It definitely felt like you were standing in a big refrigerator!

Girls Camp

I had the opportunity to go to girl’s camp this year with the young women in our ward. Last year I wasn’t able to spend much time at girl’s camp, because Karson was just a little baby. In the young women's I get to serve with the Mai Maid class along with Holly and Judy. The ladies I serve with are both amazing women I look up to both of them so much and I know the girls do as well. The young women in our ward are awesome that's all there is to it! I have loved being able to get to know their personalities and the things they enjoy to do! They are all so beautiful in their own way and I have learned and grown from their examples to me. I am forever grateful to them for the love and friendship they have given me. They are like daughters to me and I love them and I know their Heavenly Father loves them incomparably!

This is a picture of me, Annie, and Connie the day we got to girl's "camp".....Annie is such a fun cute girl she decorated her room's door with fish from the sea....so it was only appropriate that we make a fishy face in front of the door! Connie and I were also roomies along with Holly best roomies ever I love them both!

Clarissa, Kailee, and Kristine hanging out up on the balcony. What little cuties they are! 

(Lawny, Kristine, Me, Kailee, and Jadie) Can I just say I love these girls to death they are so much fun! You are never bored when they are around!

The girls having some fun at the pool! I got in and swam with the girls after taking some pictures. The girls had fun jumping in the pool and trying to launch each other into the water. Me and Bailee had a race swimming across the pool and she kicked my butt even when the others girls were trying to help me win.

The Mai Maid class!!! I just LOVE them that's all there is to it! I can not say enough good things about this group of girls right here! They are very entertaining to say the least we defiantly have a bunch of fun together! I enjoy every minute I am able to be around these girls they truly are special daughters of God.

(From the top Me, Judy, Holly, Kailee, Marah, Jessica, Kristine, Alesha, Larissa, Kylee, Jess)

The Young Women leaders and Bishop and Stewart! Fine group of people right here! They do a LOT for the girls! I am so grateful to serve with such loving and amazing people!

Fishing

Trevor has been working Saturdays lately and it hasn't been too fun, but he got off work a little earlier than expected and wanted to take the boys up to the mountains for a little fishing. I love it when we get to go do things as a family.

Trevor trying to catch a fish for Kellen.

You can't keep this little boy out of the water!

Love these two little boys! Say cheese!

Karson is saying a few words and one of them is "Cheese!"

Me and my little leech. I love him to death though!

The catch of the day...not much, but hey at least it's something. Kellen was mad we didn't keep the fish, because he wanted to eat it.
