Spring/ ASPEN GROVE

Since I haven't blogged forever, it may take some time to get back up to speed.
1.  In April I agreed to Be the President of our School's PTA.  I'm not sure what got into me, except that I wanted to be involved and they were desperate.  So I agreed to be the president.  And that Morning the School District announced that they would be switching principals around the district.  I didn't know what to expect from the new principal, but I like her very much and she is doing great things for our school

2.  In June we went to a fabulous family summer camp run by BYU called Aspen Grove and had a blast.  Here are some of the pictures from our trip.

Aspen Follies-- Fun family Games

 Maggie at the SLip and Slide.  Each day each kid would join their group and they would do Many, many age appropriate activities while Mom and Dad could do whatever they wanted-- attend lectures, go swimming, hiking, archery, shooting, and all kinds of super cool activities.

 Family Pictures on Sunday.  We had church there outside.  It was so Beautiful.

 Nate was so tired.  They kept the kids running from sun up to sun down.  This was on the edge of a gorgeous waterfall and creek.  Perfect for a nap.

 Hamming it up at the Old West Playground

 Right Before the Ropes Course which was the scariest ropes course I have Ever Done.

 Rob on the Ropes

Hiking to Stewart Falls

Other Stuff We did at Aspen Grove:  Pottery, Archery, Tennis Tournaments, Basketball Tournaments, and so many games, family cousin time.  It was incredibly fun.

On Facebook Fasts

As anyone who is inclined to read this knows by now, I've gone on a Facebook fast.  I was getting tired of telling my kids I didn't have time to play with them.  So I decided to get off of facebook. I'd rather chronicle my life on this blog and then publish it and have a record for my family.  I will still post photos for family members who prefer Facebook and I can do it directly from my computer.  But I won't be reading any posts.  If you need to reach me, please feel free to contact via this blog or my Email.
