Provo Canyon Half/Lucy's Softball ring

 






Provo Canyon Half, it rained a few times, which was not in the forecast. It was a beautiful morning though!




Bridal Veil Falls, pictures do not do justice.









Made these collages for my board. 
It ended up being my best run by 7 minutes!!! It averaged out to be at or under a 10 minute mile the whole 13 miles. Wahoo! I felt great and the scenery was amazing! So fun having so many be there at the finish line too! It was awesome and spur of the moment good decision!


Brigham thought he should lose more weight but I think he should stop now. He looks so skinny in these pictures. 

We can get into Canada as of now, so I am trying to plan our trip. He is done 1 MONTH from today! Holy Cow! I am getting so EXCITED!!!

Happy 21st Anniversary! Back to School!

Last morning camping, forgot to put this picture in last post.


Joe and I drove home from camping on our actual anniversary. We went to dinner sometime. We are so blessed and thankful for each other and the beautiful family we have been given. I decided to show the kids my wedding dress. It's a little big (yay!), it was fun to see their faces. 






Brigham is doing well and adjusting to Africa. This is one of the AP's on a hike for zone conference.


We actually sold a lot of stuff this year, I think we had 40 ish transactions. It was fun!

 Playing after school. It is nice to be back to a routine.

Spirit Lake day 3



On the third day my parents came up and spent the day with us. I didn't realize they were only coming from Lyman though so we went hiking that morning and they were waiting for us when we got back! Good thing not everyone went on with me to Tamarack. It was so great having them there. We had so much fun playing games with them and roasting hot dogs and smores. 






And the moose came back that night.





Not happy about burning her marshmellow.




Joe and Lucy finished our corn hole boatds just in time too, they were so fun to have up there.







Made their own pinata. Haha!




Incredible campsite we found at Tamarack.


Tamarack. 

See below, Marjorie and Heber went on with me to Tamarack, this is the end of Jesson though. 





They made it to Jesson! But Frannie refused to go the next half mile to see Tamarack, only Heber and Marjorie would go with me.


Using the outhouse before our hike to Jesson lake. 


Ha! Not sure what Frannie was upset about. 


Her tetherball game. 

The next day we just packed up and went home. We stopped at McDonalds in Evanston for lunch. But we ate in car because the lobby was still closed due to covid. We are having another wave of it. It is frustrating. We had an incredible time camping. So much work and so worth it. We enjoyed it so much. Games, truck drives, gathering wood, fishing, hiking, smores, laughing, fires.
