Check it off the life list

Hiking to the top of Timp. has always been on my life list and as of Saturday I can now check that off!!
We got up at 5:00 a.m. Saturday morning and headed to the Timpanoke trail head where we met a bunch of Dillon's family and we started the trek, for the first few miles we all stayed together but when the other group wanted to stop and rest and have some lunch that's when Dillon, Jodie and I took off with out them we all just needed to keep on trekking we made it all the way to the top and the view was amazing. We are so blessed to live in such beautiful country and its practically in our back yard.

Thank You Amy for watching Gage.

Here's the group that went with us

Jack Johnson

Monday Night we went to the Jack Johnson concert at the USANA Amphitheater its such a great venue to listen a concert, we had a wonderful time watching people there where such a variety from really young (I think almost to young) to some old but his music caters to everyone.

Thanks to Chris and Jodie for taking us all we had a great time and maybe next time Dillon won't drive so crazy.

Birthday Boy

I can't believe another year has come and gone Gage is growing up!! I'm so glad that this little man is in my life, every day he gives me a reason to smile and laugh even though sometimes laughing isn't the first instinct. He's a great alarm clock I'm usually up before him but on those mornings that I just can't seem to get out of bed I love to hear him yell from the other room "lowa, lowa". Lets not forget what a big helper he is washing dishes, vacumming, feeding Lexi and all the other things that he likes to help out with.
Happy Birthay Gagee Boy we love you!!Gage opening presents from Gandma and PapaGage rockin out to the music that plays on his new bike Gage was a little nervous when we sang Happy Birthday and needed help blowing out the candles

Here's a picture of the three of us I like how Gage tilted his head for this picture.

I had to put this one on for Dillon he was so proud of the action shot he took.

Boulder Mountain

This last weekend we took a little camping trip with Dillon's family to Boulder Mountain, We had a great time fishing, riding our bikes, sitting around the camp fire we spent a lot of time around the fire because we where so high up when the sun went down it got quite chilly.

I'm glad that I got to spent time in such a beautiful place and with some of my favorite people.Thanks to Chris and Jodie for the great time and wonderful memories. Thanks Uncle Ry for playing with Gage and letting him chase you for hours on end.

This is a view our our campsite

Jodie has a big grin on her face because as I was trying to take the picture the fish got off the hood and so she was trying to just hold and and it kept jumping out of her hand it was quite funny to watch.

Dillon with one of the many fish that where caught and put back.
