Kayaking with friends

A friend of ours invited us to go kayaking at Palisades with her and her boys.We had never been kayaking or to Palisades. I am so glad they invited us, because we had ball!  I love getting together with Kali and her boys, because we always have a good time anytime!

Karson Graduates from Upstart

This little boy is a smarty pants! He has learn so much and has become such a good little reader. I have loved the upstart program and feel it has helped my boys with learning in so many ways. I have no doubt that Karson will do great in kindergarten!

Sunday picnic at the cabin

We had been dying to get up to the mountain, but found it hard to find time with building a house and everything. One Sunday after church we took the four wheeler and some tin foil dinners up to the mountain. It was beautiful up there! A little cool, but beautiful! Our truck ended up getting a flat tire, but we were able to call Kim to save the day. It was so nice to spend some time on the mountain as a family. 

Building Update

Our house is moving right along! It has amazed me how fast it is going!

This is how I keep Klayton from getting hurt when we go up to the house.....

We found this nasty little fella in our soon to be yard.....I hope we don't see anymore of his friends...Luckily he was already dead when we saw him. We think he got ran over by one of the trailers that was backed up into our back yard.

I cannot wait to sit on my back patio and enjoy this view every evening......I feel so blessed to be able to enjoy such a beautiful view everyday when we move in.

Karson turns 6

Happy Birthday to my Karson! I would be lost without this boy! He is the brother who keeps balance and peace between the other 3 brothers. He makes my life a whole lot easier, because he is always willing to help me out. 

This boy was pretty spoiled for his birthday, because he got 2 birthday parties! One at Grandma Scow's and Grandma Johnson's. Trevor ended up having a interview over at the power plant in Castle Dale (he didn't get the job) on the day of Karson's birthday, so we drove over to Emery County the night before Karson's birthday and spent the day with Grandma and Grandpa Scow. We Let him open his presents before going to the pool with cousins, so he could use the snorkel we got him. We then went back to the house for cake and ice cream. My Mom order Karson an awesome ninja turtle cake that he loved. The following weekend we had a birthday party at Grandma Johnson's house where Karson had fun playing with his cousins.

Storm

Last summer we went up to the farm all the time to go see Storm well when fall/winter came we were slackers at visiting Storm, so he spooks easy around us now and is not the easiest to catch, but the boys still love coming to the farm to see him.

Tin Foil Dinner Picnic

We went and cooked tin foil dinners with the boys up in maple canyon. The boys had fun exploring and found a cliff that looked like a face. I love spending time with my family.

The cliff with the face....Kellen says he has a bump on his head
