family fun

Fourth of July camping trip to Colorado

Chad's parents own 6 acres along the Delores River in Delores, Colorado. They were gracious and invited us all up to spend some time there. Angie, Lou, Maddy, Michael, Joshua, & Nicholas came up from Mesa. Lou, bless his heart, did all the cooking. It was wonderful. Matt, Corinne, Ryan, Blake, and Bryce came down from Kaysville. Jo and Chad were there with Madi, Sadie, Shacee, and Taylin. Roger and I brought Murphy, Sassy, and Max. We had a great time, with the exception of my near drowning in the river. Chad came to the rescue after I was knocked off my inner tube and lost it. He caught it downriver and paddled back up to me in his kayak.

Disney World




Jed & Shana took their family to Disney World. Along for the trip were Shana's sister & family, Zondra, and Beneau. They had lots of rain. Up until May, Florida was very dry. Just rotten luck for them, although they had a great time anyway.

Pioneer Trek




Chad and Jo went as a Ma and Pa to a group of 14 teenagers with a handcart. They were lucky enough to go to the mountains south of Flagstaff and had perfect weather. All of them learned a lot about being a pioneer--the hardships, trials, and close friendships.

Jo Lynn Piano Recital


Jo has been taking piano lessons from a lady in the ward who does it for free. She wants everyone to be prepared for when they get called on a mission and the members need music people
