San Diego 2011

Between jobs we ran on down to San Diego. It gave me an opportunity to perfect my body boarding skills and Kole to show off the guns. See the picture on the left. We visited Sea World, Legoland and the beach.

We also visited Calico ghost town and found some scary people there.

Boulder 2010

We went on our annual trip to Boulder Mountain. It seemed like the vacation went by too fast though. We hiked the Sulphur Creek trail, here are the boys (left) with Chimney Rock in the background. Summer had strep throat for almost the entire camp, but she still made this hike that was pretty close to 8 miles long. The photo below is the strep victim passing out under a tree.

This hike was fun we had to hike through the river for just about the whole 8 miles.

Palisades

One of the fun family vacations we did this year was to Palisades State Park. We had never been before, but we had a blast and I'm sure we will go back again. We went with our friends Brian and Bethany and their little boy Bridger. The kids loved playing in the water, jumping off the back of the paddle boats and riding their bikes.

We broke out the ladder ball set for a few minutes and ate some good food. It was over the fourth of July so we went into Manti to see if we could see them, but we left when we found out they weren't going to be by the temple.

Mom and Dad's 50th Anniversary

To celebrate Mom and Dad's anniversary we went to Heber Camp, a camp owned by the church. We hiked up to the top of this trail and this was the view.

Love you mom and dad, here are the young love birds on the love boat:

Frozen Hog 2010

OK. So this was my first mountain bike race ever. My brother Ryan and I decided that it might be fun. It rained the morning of the race so the whole course turned into one giant slurpee. Here I am looking pretty happy, I must have just been dilarious or frozen or both.

Donut Falls

So I got the snowshoes out and headed up to Donut Falls. I can't really move my legs very good anymore but I was able to make it there.

Halloween

I'm finally getting around to putting a Halloween picture out here. Jackson dressed like Davy Crockett and "Buddy" made him this costume. He was so excited.
