Week 1 of our summer vacation

This has really taken me a long time to put together. There were SOOO many pictures! Here is a quick look at week 1 of our summer vacation! Bear Lake lookout point!

Jake with an entire cheer squad in Bear Lake!

Grand Tetons

Yellowstone

We encountered 5 bears on this trip! 2 of them babies :)

The kids enjoyed climbing in trees and look

Kenzie has on a jacket! Imagine that in July!!!

We did lots of hiking and the smell of sulphur

was everywhere.

Lower Yellowstone Falls

Jumping rope with neighbors at the campsite!

Baseball 2009

Hudson played on the Cubs T - Ball team this year! He had such a great time and the team consisted mostly of our neighborhood boys. Here is part of the team. Hudson loved that you got 3 coach pitches to try to hit before they brought the T out.

The breast thing ever!

Do your boobs hang low? Do they dangle too and fro? Can you tie them in a knot? Can you tie them in a bow???

These boob scarfs are the breast things I have ever seen!!!

Utah Summer Games

We have spent the last 4 days up in Cedar City watching Kenzie's team compete in soccer. This year was cold, windy and rainy which is not weather that I really enjoy but I do enjoy soccer, so I put up with it.

The Bombers is such an awesome team - we have been together for about 7 years and have just loved watching these girls grow up and become such great soccer players. They are a tight knit group that get along so well!

We have been to the Summer Games for many years and usually dominate, we have had a few years of 2nd and 3rd place, but this year it was Gold all the way. It is so much more fun when you win the GOLD!

Our first game we won 4-2. Second game was a tie at 2-2. Third was a 4-0 win. Our fourth game was the semifinal game and we won 6-2. The gold medal match was played in the Colliseum and was a tied game throughout. We knew this game was going to be a 1 point game and it was a fight to the end. We had to go into overtime, which is where we scored an awesome header goal and won the game! Very exciting times!!!

It was pouring rain when our game ended. So we all huddled and waited for our turn to get our medals.

The team and their GOLD medals!!!

California Dreamin' Part II

The kids were so excited to run out into those big waves and boogie board. But it looks like Jordan is a little bit worried with something - what does she see????She sees this fin coming out of the water. Could we possibly be in waters with starving great whites out there waiting to eat one of us?
Jake and Kenzie are taking no chances. Jordan was to shore long before them... As it turned out it was just a dolphin, well actually two of them. So back to the water they went.
Jake spent the most time in the water. He has always loved the water and really should be living in Southern Cal. being a little surfer dude.
When the kids weren't in the water they were building these little rock formations. We had a family competition of who could build the highest and Jake one with 11 rocks (sorry don't have a picture of that one)! Sean doing what he loves best. How nice to ride up and down the beach checking out all the hot chicks. The bike is so much better than running because you can cover twice as much beach in less time!
If we weren't at the beach the boys were skateboading!
Hudson is always happy to throw out some gangsta signs.

We also went to the Mission San Luis Rey de Francia, which was in Oceanside. I love the architecture of the Missions. This one was pretty but Santa Barbara's is still my favorite!
