We went to Cole's dad's family reunion this last weekend at Payson Lake. It was nice to get away from the heat, a little anyway, and relax. It was so pretty up there. Cole took this panaramic pic from our campsite. Ethan and Hazen had a blast running around all day and getting dirty. Ethan played the ENTIRE time in the "forest" with all his cousins. He had so much fun he wanted to stay camping he said.

Photography 101--

I had to post these pics. I went to download pictures from my camera and found all these pictures Ethan had taken, I thought they were pretty funny. When he told me to pose, I had no idea he actually was taking pictures. What a funny boy:)

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday Jessica and Taiya(almost!!)


We had a birthday party for my sister-in-law Jessica, her birthday was last week and for Taiya, her birthday is this week. Ethan had a blast playing George of the Jungle, according to him. Haze was so tired he slept through the entire party, he woke up long enough to eat a piece of cake:)

Goodbye Shirt and Tie, Hello Hard Hat!!

Cole decided to have a mid-life crisis, ok not really but I keep telling him that, and decided he wanted to change jobs. So he said goodbye to the corporate world and jumped head first into a new field. He loves it so far. Change and I don't go together very well, but it has worked out pretty good. He can now do what he likes, he gets to be outside and he can get his hands dirty ha ha.

I have been such a slacker at posting lately, I have been trying to post these pics for a month now:) Everytime I try it freezes and then I don't try for another week or so, anyway here are some pics of the kids and Cole when Whit was here. They went swimming quite a bit, and they loved it! Especially Haze, he pretty much walked off in his clothes. Here's Ethan swimming by himself:)
Cole doing who knows what--making sure he didn't stink ha ha

Here they are feeding the ducks at First Dam-


Ethan feeding himself and the ducks :)
