Lotts of time has past...

 

   Yikes, I haven't blogged since May.  Lotts has happened.  I will share some pictures of our spring and summer.  Some pics might be out of order, but I will do my best. Sorry this is a long post.


Family pics in May

Adam-14

Jaime-18




Ethan-11

Alex and Kelsie



Fun camping in June up Logan Canyon




Little caterpillars kept falling out of the trees.  This is how I kept them off of me.



Believe it or not there is a rattlesnake in this bag.  The boys saw it as they were riding their bikes.  A nearby camper caught it and later let it go further up the canyon.



We came across snow while we were up at Tony's Grove in Logan Canyon.  The boys had fun playing in the snow.




Happy 19th B-day Jaime


At the beginning of June Jaime surprised us by deciding to serve a mission.  She received her call and is going to South Carolina, Columbia- Spanish speaking.  She reports to the MTC on Sept. 16, 2020.  We are very proud of her.

She got her mission call.  We printed it out so she could open it.





We have had fun preparing for her mission.






Jaime hates shots.  She said if she would have known about having to get a few shots, she would have changed her mind.  Ha ha












Girl's night before she leaves



Jaime burned herself at work on a pan and got a 3rd degree burn.  Ouch. 

 

The boys have had fun fishing, and killing other various innocent animals all summer.


Adam let the snake go.





Adam and Alex went frog hunting.  Alex cooked them up the next day and we all tried frog legs.  Tastes like chicken.  Ha ha.  They just have a huge black vein in them which is really unappetizing.  



More Summer Fun


Ethan and I hiked Adam's canyon in July 

team work

It was cold and rainy.  I told Adam he didn't have to mow but he would not listen.

Lotts of fun golfing

Lotts of fun canning green beans at the cannery in Ogden.



We took a mini vacation to Twin Falls, Idaho in August.


This bridge was 500 feet above water.  It was fun to walk on it and look out.  It especially got crazy when a semi would drive over it and it would totally shake.


Shoshone Falls



Adam didn't like the bridge, but he will cliff jump- that makes no sense.

We did some geo caching... especially because Jaime hates it when we do.  Ha ha


                    We had fun exploring City of Rocks in Idaho.
Once again, Adam will climb huge rocks, but he didn't like the bridge that had a railing.  I am still confused about this.




                                       






                                                More fun

                                             
                              Cache Valley fair- August 2020  






The new school year.  

The boys have grown up so much over the last few years.

Adam 9th grade



Ethan 6th grade


Jaime painted this for her room.  It's one of the scriptures that helped her decide to serve a mission.


Fun family cookout

Sept 2020



Poodle boy
Adam is sporting his new hair do.  He paid for it with his hard earned money.


Adam worked for a farmer all summer.  This is a melon he brought home because it wasn't store quality.  funny thing- he ate half of it in no time at all.  He loves fruit.



Lotts going on in September


Poor Ethan got hurt at school playing a game.  He just came down on it wrong.  He ended up breaking it.  The break was on his ankle and was pretty small.  The problem was that it stretched his ligament.  It looked like he was going to need surgery, but miracles happen and he just needed to be in a cast for 4 weeks and wasn't able to bear weight.  We were able to borrow a knee scooter and so he can get around pretty good.  He also crawls and jumps on his good leg to get around as well.  He luckily hasn't been in pain, but he is sick of not being able to go outside and play.  It's funny how all summer I wanted him to turn off the tv and go outside to play.  Now he needs to watch tv and all he wants to do is go outside and play.








Jaime is plucking Ethan's eye brows.  It was so funny.



September 12
We love you Ryan!!!




Happy 12th B-day Ethan!!!!
