Ahh.... summer days

What fun we had this summer. Camping in Kamas was fun and peaceful. Keven went early on a friday to set up camp for us all, then the rest of us came later. We rented 4 wheelers and as you can see, Kiley loved it and Bruce....well you decide! The 4 wheeling trail was breathe taking and went on for miles and miles.

Yes, yes. You are a witness to this. Keven and Bryan did most of the cooking.

That's were the peaceful part comes in. I got to truly relax.

sisterly love.

Is it possible to go camping and not have foil dinners? They were delicious.

Very sad to think about, but this was Kiley's first time camping. She has been up to the maintains enough but only day trips. I think she could live in the mountains.

McDonald's Treat

President Daniels and his wife took Trevor and others to McDonalds for a Mcflurry on Trev's birthday. They all look happy don't they!!!

Styling in Japan

Elder Trevor Todd w/ mission companion...I can't remember his name. Interesting collar style. I think I wore collars like that back in the 80's...hmmmm! Trevor says that this guy has amazing missionary skills and has a good way with people.

I have never really understood the G.Q. pose. Anyone want to explain it to me.

This is on the day of Takeda's baptism. Also in the photo is President Daniels and his wife. They are from Park City.

The First Day....

First day of 4th grade. Kiley had all kinds of apprehensions.

When the day was over she was happy and full of stories. Life is good!

Jackson Hole

Jackson was a lot of fun this year. Bruce and Kiley enjoyed racing down the Alpine slide a couple of times.

Kiley was a bit uptight about her dad winning the race.

He didn't really win. It looked like a tie to me.

Kiley couldn't wait until she got to bungee jump. I kept holding her off until Bruce could be there to watch. All she talked about for 2 days was bungee jumping. No fear right????

I'm ready and waiting...these people are so slow, come on already.

...never mind. I hate this. Mom, get me down....MOM!!!!! We thought she was going to throw up on us below.

ok, so maybe it wasn't as fun as it looked....ya think!!!

Triathlon update

Kiley's time was 16.2 minutes. Two laps in the city pool, 1 mile bike ride, 1/2 mile run. Kiley placed 11th out of 41 in her age division. Total kids participating were 76.

OUR LITTLE TRIATHLETE

Kiley received a phone call Sunday from a friend asking if she wanted to do the kid triathlon with her this week. The friend would swim, another friend would bike and Kiley was going to run. She was very excited about the whole thing. Then two days ago she found out that there were no teams. Each kid needed to swim, bike and run. Now she wasn't so sure. Bruce and I encouraged her and here are the results of this mornings triathlon. We don't have her time yet. That will be posted later in the day. It was very exciting to watch from the sidelines.

Kiley wore a jacket at first. She was cold and very concerned about getting in the pool
