Granny's famous kitchen table where mounds of
potatoes, pounds of roast beef and chicken, rounds
of homemade pies and scrumptious homemade
rolls have been consumed.....does that = a
round mound of scrumptious pounds?


Bailey is so happy to have finished the family
5K that went down Gramp's big hill, up the
other side, to the bridge, turn around, down the
hill, and up the other side--Good job, everyone!

Miles and Miles of Smiles


Natalie, Russ, and Spen--lotta love goin on


Smith and Ed's---always a family treat.
Rusty was awarded the best purchase--however

Summer Fun!!

Every summer our family goes to Lake Powell with our great friends and neighbors, the Andersons. The last three years we have had a houseboat share. This is the view from our houseboat......the first view. We actually moved the houseboat two more times looking for the ultimate spot but we found it.

Russell Mo, Spencer, and Russell Jo did a bit of scuba diving. You can imagine the crazy things they saw at the bottom of Lake Powell.

This was Bailey's first attempt at wakeboarding. She popped up the first time.



Lake Powell Olympics have been a big hit for the past couple of years. We tie-died dewrags and Doug and Lynn got carried away and did a few shirts.


The gang was getting ready for Johnny's and Clayton's big Olympic relay.


McCall and Tori.......so cute!



Getting ready for the long-awaited talent show.


Best seats in the house.


Possibly the winning talent....."One square."
