Biking

The kids love riding their bikes. Our neighbor gave us a bike that we fixed up for Anna and she would ride it all day if I let her. All 3 of them ride their bikes to the bus stop in the morning and afternoon and Jackson just  learned to ride his with no training wheels!! We practiced and practiced and he got it down. 

 He is so proud of himself, and I am proud of him too!!

 She must have strong little legs because she keeps up with her brothers.

 The day before this she crashed and got a bloody lip but she got right back on.

 Jackson has had a few crashes too but he is tough about it and it doesn't slow him down.

 Just a scrape.

 Later that evening Wendy and Emily came over with their kids and we had a whole gang of bikers. (Dillon on the trike.)

General Conference Flowers

 Isaac was looking at the flowers on T.V. when we were watching General Conference, then he disappeared for a little bit and came back in with a pretty bouquet of flowers for me.

 So sweet.

Beautiful Day for a Ride

It's always so exciting and invigorating when the weather starts to change. We can finally get out with out having to find some cool water to dive into. Today we rode the rhino up onto the little mesa (Jumpback) and played in the cool soft sand.

 The kids were loving it!!

 Grandma came along with us.

 Amazing views from up there and it was a beautiful overcast day.

 They are all getting so big.

 Running and running and running!

 And we all fell down!

 Mom can fly!!

 Isaac learned to spell his last name today by practicing it in the sand. He is getting so good!!

 Loading up to head back down. 

 We went back to Grandma and Grandpas and good ol' Grandpa BBQ'd for us.

I'm really not sure what that thing is.

We sure have a sweet Grandma though.

Anna Girl

Anna just cracks me up everyday. I really always thought that girls acted like girls because they were taught to act like that but now I know they really are born that way!

Labor Day Weekend 2012

Over Labor Day weekend this year we went to Cannonville. My Mom and Dad went also, and we had a great time.

 Isaac drove the rhino while grandpa sprayed weeds.  

 He is getting to be a pretty good driver.

 You can tell Anna is a desert girl because if it's 70 degrees she wants her coat on.

 They had so much fun on the rhino.

 Up on the water tank by bull dog hill.

 It was such a beautiful weekend with some thunderstorms and nice rain.

 Back on the rhino.

 We took our BB guns and Isaac and Grandpa had the best time shooting.

 Jackson liked to pull the trigger for Grandpa

 The BB's stuck in the wood.

 Isaac spent hours shooting. He loves it, and he's really a good shot.

 Jackson likes juice.

 I remembered I had some cool targets in my trunk. They really liked those.

 Goin' out for a ride.

 Yay!

 This is how Grandpa trims the trees.

 Jackson is a good helper.

 Grandma and Isaac played quite a bit of baseball. Grandma is a good pitcher and Isaac was really good at batting!

 Anna would chase down the balls for them.

 And of course the Cannonville Park is always a favorite.

 Fruit loops and a cartoon for breakfast in the trailer. 

 Me, Grandma, Anna and Jackson took a drive up to Bryce to look off the points. Isaac and Grandpa wanted to stay at the cabin to shoot.

Beautiful Escalante Mountain.
