First Bear Lake camp trip

We love our favorite camping spot up near Bear Lake. There are several four-wheeler trails and the lake to provide more than enough things for us to do.  This fort was already started when we got there, but the kids stayed entertained adding to it.
 
 
 Another favorite past-time for our boys is driving the dump trucks- they could do it for hours!

Cute little kids- we love to take my niece Brooke with us to help entertain the boys. They love her too and get a long really well.
Grandma and the kids at the lake. We convinced my sister Cailin and her husband Jacob to come with us and bring their boat. After an hour of riding the kids were done and wanted to play on the beach. The sand and the water are like a kid's dream come true!

Mom's group at the fish farm

This would be a first for both of my boys! We have never taken them fishing before-we don't have any poles or fishing licenses so that makes it tough. Plus with two very active kids and one ADHD father, patience while waiting for a fish to bite is not something my boys would have much of. 


 The other really nice thing is that the farm cleans them and wraps them up all ready to eat so all you have to do is take them home and grill em!  Caiden was a little sad when he found out we were taking the fish home to eat and not to have as pets. :(

The dirty dash

My work does some very fun things and I have to admit, that I work with some very fun people. This year, our administrator sponsered a team for the Dirty Dash. Pineview paid half the cost and we had to make up the other half. People dress up and put on some crazy costumes, but we decided to go with some awesome swim caps with flowers glued to them (which made for easy clean-up of my hair afterwards!).
 
We looked so nice and pretty to start out with-but very quickly we got muddy!


 Taking a plunge at the end of the race-I should clarify it really isn't a race cause I'm sure we would have been last. We did travel a total of 5 miles I think. There were obstacles and mud pits and all sorts of fun things to do along the way! Good dirty fun!
This is most of the group that we were with, we missed some stragglers at the end, but this is the bulk of us. My boss is the one right next to me-how cool is your boss? Mine is awesome!
