Hero Camp

The day after we got back from vacation, the kids and I started Hero Camp.  It's a week long camp put on by the mom's for primary age kids.  Every day a scripture hero was spotlighted.  Then the kids rotate through a lesson, craft, music time, awesome activity, and photo ops for the scrapbook.  Each age group learned a song and choreography to preform at the show on Friday.

Kallie and Julia being cute.
We had so much fun being involved in Hero Camp.  It was the first camp put on by the mom's in our stake.  I was blessed enough to work with the awesome moms that put so much time and energy to make it a wonderful experience for the kids.  We all made new friends.  One of the moms made a power point presentation that we watched on Fri at the show.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fqVJdfz4EY&feature=email  
Then we went and partied at the park.  Can't wait until next year.  We are already planning so many fun things.

Vacation-Wyoming

After staying a week with Byron's family we headed to Wyoming for a week of adventures with my family.  Most of the pictures were taken by someone other then me.  Maybe a youngin?


That's what we call "wrastling."

Jenna the supermodel...but only when she's in the mood.

Just chillin' at grandma's.

On the way home from Bear Lake.  Aww the technology age.

Griffin had a great time.

I didn't plan on getting wet...until I fell off the jet ski.

We had breakfast one morning at a great cafe in Immigration Canyon.  It was so beautiful and sooooo delicious.

Family Pictures

We had family pictures taken while we were in Wyoming.  It is always an adventure.

Oh yeah, and Seattle

Wow, I really haven't blogged for a long time.  I also went to Seattle in May to spend a weekend with my mom and my sisters.  We really had a great time!  It was my first time in Seattle, so of course we had to do a little sight seeing.  My dumb camera lost our great pics from Pikes Market.  The rest of the time we were too busy shopping. 





Oops, Forgot July

July went by fast for us.  I didn't get many pictures but wanted to share some fun ones.

It's so fun now that all the kids like to play in the water.

We went to a new beach that had tide pools filled with fun things to see.

Yes, that's my superhero.

July 4th, before we headed out for our day of festivities.

The kids sang at the Stake flag ceremony.  My camera was being lame and deleted all my other cute pictures.

Vacation- Utah

We were so blessed to be able to take an extended family vacation this year.  We packed up and headed out bright and early Fri morning for our drive to Idaho.  Our first stop was in Weber, UT to stay with Byron's brother and family.  On Sat, they gave us the choice to go swimming or go for a hike...

Who's the king of bunker's hill?  Byron and all the kids.


We thought no big deal...  it was a tough hike, especially for our wimpy California lungs.  It was really great though.  We hiked up Waterfall Canyon in Ogden.  The waterfall was really amazing.
Can you see Corbin?
She's growing up too fast.
Once again, Jenna doesn't want to be in the picture.

Anthony, Alex, and Corbin enjoying snacks and the view before we headed down the mountain.

We were so thankful to have spent time with Bob and Lisa.  Our kids get along great and we love spending time with them.  Thanks guys!!!

First and Last of School 2010-2011

First day of school.
Last Day of school.  Kallie wore a shirt that all her friends could sign.

"Yes now you can make silly faces."
Yes, Corbin is still in pj's most days when the girls leave for school.
