Livin Up To the Name

We went to the Days of 47 rodeo not once but twice! The second time everyone decided to dress the part. It was entertaining both times. I like the bull riders and bareback riders, don't understand what would make someone want to do that but it's fun to watch.

Sunday Hikes

Each Sunday we have started loading up the truck and heading out for a new adventure. We've seen old mines, stinging needle, snakes, waterfalls, lakes, and lots of beautiful scenery. Each kid has suffered minor scrapes and bruises and some severe whining episodes but overall I know they love it especially when friends come along.
We didn't want to take Luke up this part but he threw the biggest fit when he saw his Mom and sisters take off without him. He has been the best hiker of all. This past Sunday we had a party and couldn't go hiking he kept asking when we were going to the mountains.

Happy Days!


So I know it is kind of lame to just post about all the wonderful fun things we have been doing. It makes it sound like our life is nothing less than perfect. Well we have been having a lot of fun but behind each sunny picture there has been multiple meltdowns and tempers lost but who doesn't go through that. All in all I can't complain I've got good family and friends. So here is another corny post: We met up with the cousins and spent the day running through fountains, playing in streams, and eating ice cream it doesn't get more summer than that!
