Bear Lake

Perfect weather. Perfect water. Perfect day! We rented a paddle board...I've been wanting to try it ever since Florida. Gotta say--it's much easier for women. I never fell over--even my first time getting on. Robbie, however, was a total natural. He started doing jumps on it! Haha!

This is him mid-air! And yes, he landed it!

We rented two SeaDoos, too!

We tried pulling a tube from the SeaDoo, but it wasn't very successful. The boys thought it was so boring being dragged along so slowly. Such thrill seekers!

Logan's Aquatic Center

This place is seriously fun! The slides are great; the water is warm; Rob and I even got to swim laps together...we loved it (until it got SUPER crowded and we saw the lifeguard carrying a bag of poop out of the water! Ugh! Yeah, we left after that!) But, before that, Robbie and Ty discovered the diving boards! I have to admit I giggled when Rob went off the high dive. For being as "brave" and "tough" as he is...he sure didn't show it as he gingerly stepped off the board! I actually jumped, and I think it made Rob suddenly love me so much more! haha. My poor babe is afraid of heights, you see. :) Robbie did the high dive lots of times. He started getting a little too daring for me, when he FLIPPED off the diving board! Ty leaned a little more toward the kamikaze approach--running on the board and then just lobbing himself into the water.

Chillin'

Afternoon at Hyrum Dam. This place is always beautiful!

Look at those clouds!

Ty and I escaped on the 4-wheeler for an afternoon cruise!

Country Life: Horses, 4-Wheelin', and Shootin' Things Up

The boys really are so spoiled. They have done so many great things in their short little lives!

Jimmy on Yikey--or as Rob calls him, "Yikers."

Riding Uncle Kane's 4-wheeler

Grandpa Haas bought a rocket set--the boys shot one off  and thought they were big time!

Rifles and Bows...didn't matter which--this was the spot: back porch shooting practice

Crooked Tramp

This was one of the funniest things ever...to watch these guys try to put together a new trampoline. This ain't their first rodeo, so it should be a cinch, right? Um...not exactly!

This thing was so twisted, it looked like an infinity loop! Turns out, there was a bad pole, but their stumped faces throughout the process were priceless!

Ty looks Ethiopian in this picture! I swear the kid eats!

Sick and Hives

The last time we were in Utah, Jimmy got supers sick. Strep, throwing up, huge lymph nodes. Since that time, he has had cyclical fevers. He got it once again while in Utah. Poor baby!

And then Robbie got sick. He broke out in horrible hives...for 4 days! He was throwing up...it was awful! We still don't know the cause...Kneaders. Mrs. Calls caramel, and Tony's Tacos was what he'd eaten. Then he got in a hot tub full of kids. No clue, but on the night they started, Rob was driving in. We headed to Wellsville where he was in a house with three doctors and two nurses; he was in good hands.

Pioneer Day

 Kneeders All-You-Can-Eat French Toast!

 Aricka and I have great taste! Same color suit!!

 The Homestead had some games, so we headed over

 Dinner at Cafe Pizzeria! Rob and I totally miss this place!

 Weak-sauce fireworks compared to Missouri, but we still had "a Blast!"
