We love to go to the lake. Every year we go to lake Ray Roberts. It has a lovely beach and if water bores you they do have a playground. Lots of shade and picnic areas if you like to make the day of it. The boys love to make holes and fill them with water. Don't get the point in that because you can swim in the lake, but hey they are having fun. We plan on going again in september one weekend. Fun.

Trip Report

A great shot to open up our log of the trip. Riley and I climbed up to the "Y" in Provo our fist day in the valley. The night before we climbed up Rock Canyon and watched the "Stadium of Fire" fireworks display from the mountain. When the F16's flew by we were about level with them. Very cool perspective. In the background you can see Mount Timpanogos! Riley and i had a great time!This shot sums up our victory treat from the "Creamery on the 9th". I am pretty sure this cone was bigger than Riley's head when we started licking! It was HUGE!This is a shot from the Timponokee trail in a small meadow. We had a great picnic here!I love these trips with my boys. I have grown closer to each one of them. I am glad however that I will be able to focus on whole family trips. Being away from the family is tough.Here we are bowling at the "Y". Yes he took me out...boy has no mercy!!!Another great highlight of the trip...Temple Square!



Last pictures of us conquering the Green River at Flaming Gorge! My brother is steering us through the class 5 rapids...really just class 2's but still great fun! These father son Adventure/bonding trips are great!

Since everyone is talking about growing stuff I figure I would post some pictures of what our friendly neighborhood birds left for us. We have a bird feeder and birds are very messy eaters. Lucky for us we were left with some beautiful sunflowers.

Blaze has been helping us with our garden. Cody was weeding and Blaze was watering, can you tell?
