Dad the pack mule


 
 
 Mike made a nice little camp for us and filled us up with a delicious breakfast
before we did some exploring.

Pristine

The snow/glaciers were still melting and there was water and waterfalls everywhere.





 

Payson Temple Open House

Beautiful theme of leaves

I love me a good storm.

End of School Happenings



    
Tyler had a fabulous "UTAH" program at the end of the year. He was a fantastic "customer" and could square dance like no other!
He also enjoyed the Mountain Man Rendezvous. Annie's dad from the Bountiful 18th ward still comes with his teepee and tells some great stories!



Katelyn did double duty in the Spring concert with the clarinet and elec. guitar in the jazz band
 
 
Brigham was dazzling in his 2nd Grade Reader's Theatre! I love the kid's gi-normous yawn next to Brigham. If we were being honest it was a real snoozer, but B did quite well in his readings.


black family reunion

We gathered together for a mini Black reunion up Daniel's Summit in late May. Missed those that weren't with us!

Spring Sports; Soccer, Tball, Baseball & Softball

 
 
Undefeated until the last game!!! Brigham's school team got split this year and there were a lot of sad kids and mad parents. His fall soccer team was not gellin' and we didn't have high hopes when spring soccer resumed, but the team pulled it together a little better and had some wins.
Brigs got  a cool trophy and all!
 


 
Christian rocked Tball this spring! played 1st base and didn't even need the tee!
 


Pretty jazzed about his trophy too



Ty Guy was on 2 teams. Blue rocks was his rec team. He pitched and caught for them. They had a pretty good season, but he enjoyed his comp team more.


Ty had some great hits during his comp season! Their first tournament he got the game ball for being so awesome. He played 1st base & catcher.
 


Amy has herself a good little comp team that she enjoys playing with. Most of the season she has been center field towards the end her coach pulled her up to 2nd bas and she got a double right away. She liked seeing a little more action!
 
 
Steals like crazy! Her coach says she "runs like a gazelle"Battled it out to win 2nd place in the Top Gun Tourney!


 
 

After a big win!! Lots of tournaments!

Cutest of all! This girl has attended more games and practices than any kids in the history of the world and she still loves it! #1 cheerleader! She had a big crush on baseball this spring. She had layers of shirts of for each sport and would unpeel when it was time to play that specific sport. Watch her be a dancer!
