Bear Lake 2010

The first part of August we went with some friends of ours camping to Bear Lake. We had so much fun. The water was just amazing. One of the days we went to the Mnitonka Caves, the older kids loved it, the little kids didn't know what to think. I thought I was going to freeze to death. But all in all we had a great time the some amazing memories.

Our Week in Moscow, Idaho

Jaron's work sent him to Moscow, Idaho for some classes. Right before we left, I ended up having a allergic reaction to some stuff I put on a zit, I had on my face... I was so mad. Not only did it make my zit 10 times bigger it also burned my face clear through to the inside of my cheek. Not only did I go with Jaron to Moscow due to it fell during our 15th anniersary, I was so sick. I spent most of the days in the hotel room watching the world cup, and sleeping. The day after our anniversary, Jaron convinced me to ride over to Spokane, Washington. When Jaron was a kid he went there for a choir performance and went to this famous park and really wanted to share that with me. So not only was it pouring rain, we went on a trolly over the river, met the garbage eating goat, the Merry go Round, and fountains.

In front of the fountains in the park.

After we returned back to Moscow, I was not feeling well, in the middle of the night I woke up to HIVES from HEAD to TOE!! I was having problems breathing, so needless to say we checked out of our hotel and the got the **** out of Moscow, Idaho. When we returned home, I found out I had an allergic reaction to the antibiotic they put me on... I have never been so sick before. I have definatly learned my lesson on being VAIN... If you have a zit let it just run it's course, don't try to speed up the process...

Hogal Zoo

On Monday we went to Hogal Zoo with Jay and his family. We had a great day. It was nice and hot which is not typical of a Memorial Weekend. The kids had been after us to take them there. We are so glad we did, it was a great day.

This is a Gibon Monkey, he was so funny, he made so much noise that Jaron thought it was Jace and Cade also making the noise. Boy was he wrong, the monkey was just really loud.

Temple Square

On Sunday we met up with Jay and Brianne. We took the kids on a tour of Temple Square. We started with the new conference center, it was so fun to spend time with Jay and his family. After the tour we went back to our hotel and went for a swim..

Salt Lake City Bees Game

We started out our Memorial Weekend with John and Jessica at a Bee's game. We had so much fun and the weather was awesome. Sunny and perfect for a night of Baseball!

They gave free train rides while the kids waited for the game to begin...

After running the bases, the kids got to have their photo taken with the BEE!

Dance Competition 2010

Our dance team is just amazing!!! Not only do they look good, they have done great at the competitions they have paricipated in so far.... Nationals this year was held in Draper, Utah. They received 1st place on all their dances but the show number got 2nd. Last weekend they went to Utah Championship Competition in Roy, Utah and they received 1st on all their dances as well as overall performance and audience appeal for their hip hop and large show number. Way to go Downtown Dance...

Hannah, I hope you know just how amazing you are. It is a joy to watch you dance. I love the energy and technic you put into your dance. You are beautiful and a joy to watch.

Keep up the good work girls!!!!
