The great outdoors

We've been in the mountains a lot lately- just they way it should be. This past weekend we went to the Mathews Reunion at the Heber Valley Camp. The evening started with a dinner, (which we missed) followed by a Film Festival. My grandma is so creative. It was so fun to see all the videos people put together and we're already excited to see what everyone comes up with next year. Jennifer and Jathon headed up some hardcore games that went on until the crack of dawn. The loss of sleep was well worth it. The next morning we had a delicious breakfast and then headed down to the lake for some canoeing. We saw a total of 34 ducklings on the lake. Needless to say, it was the best canoeing experience I've ever had. Then we went to the ropes course. It was so fun to have challenges that we had to figure out together as a team. It started to pour on us for about an hour, but we kept at until we finished. I have a special skill to attract rodent like animals. I spotted a weasel and got some good pictures of him. He was so cute that I told Logan we just had to have one someday. We looked them up and it turns out they're quite morbid animals and very weasely. I think we'll stick to rats. It was a wonderful weekend and I can't wait for next years reunion.

Logan and I also did a little prep work for our Havasu hike this week. We hiked The Jardine Juniper on Wednesday after work. It is an 11 mile hike. We packed some snacks and headed to the trail. The trail was very scenic and beautiful. Even the 1500 year old tree that is on its death bed was entertaining to look at. We successfully did the entire trip in about 4 1/2 hours. I think we're ready for Supi!

Weasels are like streched out cats. Thats why I want one.

They told us we wouldn't break the beams. We broke a beam.

Fat guys in a little coat. We weren't prepared and there was a shortage of jackets. Logan is wearing mine and I'm wearing my cousin Josh's.

We were successful in ALMOST every challenge.

Again my skill to attract rodents

Clap louder if you believe in summer

Maybe summer needs a little help. We just need to believe in 80 degree weather and it will come. Well despite the rain and cold, we've decided its summer. We did a random run up the canyon to roast some mallows after Logan needed some de-stressing from taking the LSAT ( we have to wait two more weeks to find out the score, but I'm sure he did great). We also went camping with the Bently's and the Tippets. What fun! Jennica and Jordan were smart and got out of there that evening, but us county folk- the Christensons and Tippets decided to spend the night. It rained but we still felt the trip was well worth it. We had my delicious cobbler with ice cream- Yum!

We had our three year anniversary on June 3rd. I can't believe I didn't take a picture. I bow my head in shame and am here by revoked of my picture taking. Not that there was much to take a picture of. We went to the temple, ate Cafe Rio and bought season 9 of Seinfeld to watch. Romantic!

We also hiked the Wind Caves. I told Logan that the hike would have been perfect if only we had caught a small snake. Well I am pretty cool and about 20 minutes later we caught a small snake. Staci and Scott were here from Colorado so we took the opportunity to meet them at Thanksgiving Point and go to the Dinosaur Museum. William was one happy boy.



Who is that creature in the corner? Shmeigal?
