Hybernating

Someone asked me the other day what we have been up to. And I told them, "Nothing!", and I really meant it. Life at our house is pretty boring. We truly have been hybernating all winter saving up vacation hours and planning our summer camping trips. To let you know how boring it is at our house...here are some of the highlights of our winter:

Kendal got her hair cut short:

This is Kendal not getting her way:

This is a pretty normal look for her. I have NO IDEA who she got that from. Her latest thing to tell me is: Is that any way to treat your children?

I let the kids sleep in their hideout one night:

This is a picutre of the little monsters: (they are very inseperable)

Both our neighbors cut their trees down and now we have a view of the mountains: (This was actually the most exciting thing that has happened)

We have A LOT of different birds around our house so we have been bird watching from our kitchen. Here are some birds that we have seen. We have no idea what kind they are.

Dinner

I went out to my garden the other day for the first time in awhile and look what I found. A very very large zucchini (I can't spell it). So I thought I would fry some and have scrambled eggs with it for dinner. Since this is your favorite food, Dad, I will save some for you! :-) Bryce thought it was cool that he cleared 3 baskets of laundry.

Kendal Birthday

See what Kendal got for her birthday.

She got a ride on a horse, not the actual horse. Her brother gave her a remote control car so she can play with him.

Our Summer

So I am not a very good blogger. If we weren't out camping this summer, we were home working like crazy to save up money and vacation time to go camping. We counted that we spent 24 nights in our new trailer, The Bullet, this summer. We have had a lot of fun and made a lot of memories. We have been to some amazing places this year. So here is a "recap" of our Spring/Summer/Fall.

9 nights on our Oregon Trip:

4 nights at the Crook Reunion:

3 nights at the Bartschi Family Reunion at Washington Lake in the Uintahs:

2 nights along the Provo River (with Becky and Sundance!)

3 nights at Bridger Lake in the Uintahs:

3 nights in Bryce Canyon/Zion Parks (this is our most spontaneous trip)

Here are some "out take" pictures:

And now we hibernate until Spring!

Bryce's Birthday

Here are some pictures of Bryce's birthday. He loved everything about his birthday - even the squash that Grandpa sent to him.

Shiner Day 2

Terena wanted to see a picture of Day 2. He is kind of proud of it today.

Shiner

The hazards of playing baseball. I can only imagine what it will look like tomorrow! :(
