Summer Fun!!

So it has been a totally crazy and busy summer, and once again I am wofully behind on my posting. We went to Lake Powell in July and it was so much fun. We had wonderful weather, like 95 degrees and a little breezy. Aunt Oralin always picks the best weeks!!




Abbi was so brave, she jumped off the top of the houseboat with her Daddy and it only cost me $12. Then she went fishing. Now she only had this little butterfly net, some animal crackers and a whole lot of patience. I showed her what to do and she sat there determined to catch a fish! The boys were all very jealous. Even her dad was jealous.

Then over Labor Day we went up to Zion National Park. It was beautiful, and we had a great time. We hiked the River Walk, Weeping Rock, and the Lower Emerald Pool. Sydney thought we were trying to kill her off, She kept telling me that she was "hot, tired, thirsy, hungry, and only a little kid. " But she was a trooper and despite all of that she kept up and had a good time. The only problem we had was that there were a lot of bee's at our camp 6 or 8 flying around us at all times. Carter thought they were great and kept trying to grab them, but the girls screamed and cryed everytime they even thought they saw one. So after 2 spilled dinners, spilled OJ, spilled hot chocolate, and a bevy of bruises from tripping and falling trying to run away, we finally let them sit in the tent. They stayed in the tent almost the entire time we were at the campsite. So much for the great outdoors!






So don't worry about it, my girls are super posers. I don't think we took a normal picture the entire time we were there
