Trip to Yellowstone

We went to Yellowstone for our anniversary trip. This arch is in Afton, Wyoming.

We saw alot of buffalo everywhere.

There is still a lot of snow in the park

But the bears are out! And on the Hunt for food.

It was a fun but wet week.

Graduation Time

Craig is doing his victory dance as he goes through the PV. He is thrilled to be done with high school and now- it's on to college.

FUN!!

the young men and young women in our ward decided to do something fun for their activity for the end of the summer. All 6 groups had to build a boat, it could be made out of anything you wanted as long as it only cost $35.00. All the boats were made (Kary's group- the teachers- built a 12 foot long, 4 foot high, pirate ship) the whole group headed out to Quail Resevoir to have a race and see who would float. Tyler's group tied a matress to some big foam blocks, and Matthew's group took a large sheet of plywood, cut two holes in the middle, put buckets in to sit in, then put big round pipes under the edges. It was an interesting sight when all the boats got to the water. Matthew helped build his boat, but he had football practice while the activity was going on so- Craig took his place on the boat. To make a long story short, the priests (Matthew's boat) won the race, Deacon's got second, then the girls after them. The pirate ship- it sank. But not before the boys had time to bomb the other ships with water balloons. All of the kids had fun.
