Pictures as promised

A Blast at Bear Lake!

We just got back from a great family reunion

at Bear Lake, Ut.

We are pretty wiped out and so pics will have to wait!

Just an overview now:

Boating/Wave-runners

Horseback Riding

A Cave Tour

ATV's

Fireworks

and a lot of family card games!

We're finally back!!!

Prior to colapsing on our bed for the night (that's right our own bed...finally), I thought I would quickly blog and let everyone know we made it home! After all was said and done (unless you count Mark's Moab trip where he slept here one night during all this!) we were gone for 17 days and nights! Vacation is nice of course but nothing beats your own matress, your own pillow, and not having to worry about who you might wake up if the baby cries a bit as he falls asleep!
Ahhhh. Home sweet home.

Golf Anyone???

I have felt somewhat spoiled with all the golf that I have been able to get in recently. Not only when I was down with my parents did my dad and I get in 36 holes over 3 days, but while in Moab at the wilderness life support course, I went 27 holes with my coworkers. It was lots of fun.

I do have to say that I was never more nervous looking for my balls in the rough than at Moab. The cashier did relieve me by saying that she usually only sees bull snakes out there and that rattle snakes are usually only on holes 4 and 14. Besides, she has been there 6 yrs and "no one has been bitten yet!". Either way, I was motivated to keep my ball in the fairway like never before!

Missing the Family! And A LOT of Traveling

We have been doing a lot of traveling recently. Last week we drove down to Vegas and back in one day (kind of) for Tammy's brothers graduation. On Thursday after work we drove to Reno and then the next morning on to Cupertino CA to see my parents. We had lots of fun there (excluding the household stomach flu on Memorial day) and my Dad and I got in 36 holes over 3 days. I golfed much better the last 9 than the 1st 9!

On Tuesday I flew back to Utah and drove down with my coworkers to Moab for an Advance Wilderness Life Support course that goes till Saturday. So now I am missing my family!

Tammy drove down to her families in Fresno while I am gone and is having a blast by the sounds in the background everytime I call!

Can't wait for Sunday when I fly back to California to meet up with them again! Then it is 2 days with my family, 2 with hers and then driving to Vegas for a Women's Health Conference. We will get back the next Sunday only to drive all day Monday again as well as a 3 day trip to Colorado on Thur-Sat for some interviewing!

Not sure what I was thinking packing all this into so short a time!!!

Easily Replaced???

I woke up to play racketball this morning and when I returned

(after losing terribly to Troy),

this is what I found!

Sometimes I wonder if they are awake just waiting to hear the garage to close so they can run in and sleep in our bed! Oh well.

Joke Time...

Kayley came home from preschool with a cute joke about the teapot song.

I couldn't resist videoing it!

Of course then Moriah wanted to share one of her favorite jokes as well:
