Trip to Denver August 2010

It had been a while since the kids had seen GGma and GGpa. Tyler was pretty worried about GGma, with her being sick, so he wasn't sure what to expect. I think that he was pretty happy to see that she what just his same GG.

We were so lucky and were able to go to the “Egg & I” for breakfast every morning while we were in Denver. This picture of Derick, I just love it. The expression on his face looks the same as the Scooby Dooby Doo on his T-shirt.

Pickin' Raspberries

While were up the mountains for Labor Day we rode the 4 wheelers over to a hillside full of raspberry bushes. The little kids pretty much ate all that they picked but we always ended up with a good size bowl of them. They were used in breakfast pancakes and I had them on my ice cream, it was delicious.

Last of Girls Camp 2010

We had such an wonderful fire side at young women's camp. One of the talks they told us, was about a story of a soldier in the war and how he was at an old women's house and she had this painting of the Saviors hands and it had all of these names written on it. She told him that whenever anyone would come to visit and were having struggles she would have them sign their name on it and give the Savior their worries and whatever they were struggling with. So they had a painting there at camp and let everyone go up and put there name on it.

On the morning that we left, everyone got a balloon & we wrote down what a goal of ours is that we wanted to accomplish throughout this next year.

Building a fort

Tyler and Grandpa had a great time building this fort. Tyler was exhausted by the time we headed home.

Labor Day Weekend

It was fun to watch all the kids looking for the frogs. They looked like old people all bent over hoping to find one. I think that Bailey caught 99% of them. Tyler ended up stripping out down to his BVD's so that his pants wouldn't get wet.
