Swimming Lessons

Deegen started swimming lessons last Monday. He is loving it and doing a great job of learning how to swim. The only thing that sucks about the class it's 30 mins long Mon-Thurs. So when I get home from work it's off to swim lessons. Then by the time I get home and make dinner it's almost 8pm and Trevor and the kids are starving. Sorry!! Only one more week of it.


Caming up AF



Two weekends ago, we went AF canyon to go camping. It was nice to get away for the weekend. We went to a spot that Trevor use to go to when he was a kid. It was still kind of cold which was hard with Cassidy. On Saturday morning we went for a drive and ended up at Cascade Springs. It was ok. Not as pretty as I remember it but Deeg had fun running around trying to find fish in the ponds.


This is where we camped. We went on tons of hikes mainly up the side of this mountain. It was really steep. Some random pictures of American Fork Canyon.





Some random pictures of us just having fun.


Cassidy in the trailer on Sunday. It was really windy that day so were stuck in the trailer all day long. Trevor went to work Sunday morning so it was just me and the 2 whiny kids.

Turkey Hunt

Trevor, Jone and I all had a southern region Turkey permit. So the last weekend in May we went down to the boulders to try and get at least one turkey. We left Thursday and drove forever it seemed like but we finally made it there. Once we got there we found a nice camp site and set up the trailer and got ready to start looking for all these turkeys. Around 4 pm we set out and ended up by poise lake. It was a pretty drive but no turkeys not even a track.







On the way back it started to SNOW and I mean snow. Going back to camp it was a white out and the roads had tons of snow on them. It was kind of scary. Friday morning, we woke up to a couple of inches on the ground, so we didn't even go out for the early morning hunt. That afternoon, the snow was some what melted so Trevor and I went to see if we could see anything. In a meadow that we found, we didn't see any turkeys but we did see some huts that were kind of cool. It looked like people use them probably boy scouts or something like that.




After 3 days of hunting and only seeing 1 hen and 1 tom that ran across the road, we decided to go fishing on the 4th day. We had a blast. Caught lots of fish and Cassidy even caught her own fish. I was holding her and we caught a fish!! I couldn't believe it. Her first fish at 7 months.









Horse riding



Trevor FINALLY took me for a horse ride on his parents' horses. Trevor, Jon and I went up A.F. canyon and went on the trail that went up to Silver Lake. This was on May 16 and there was still snow everywhere!! But we still had a good time. I rode Gunner and he was every nice to me. Trevor kind of had me scared because he told me all these stories about him and how he doesn't like certain people. But he seemed to be ok with me this time.

Lake Powell

We went to Lake Powell with Trevor's family on May 8-10. It was fun but cold. We went down there to fish and we did ok. Deegen loved it and thought it was so cool. He keeps wanting to go back down. On Friday we drove down there and checked in then headed to the Lake. Thinking that the fishing would be good, but we were wrong. But rest of the trip we did okay. Here are some pictures of the trip.

Cass was so into the fish and the fishing pole. She has a blast playing with the reel.

Tanner's Day

On May 2, my nephew tanner was baptized. It was really nice. First we went to Kiley's stake center and there were about 8 kids there to be baptized. It took like an hour and a half to get through all of them. Then afterwards we went over to Kiley's house for lunch and hang out with the family. It was fun.
