We spent two weekends in a row camping. For entertainment the boys decided to build a huge hut. They really put alot of effort into it...
The took a saw to cut boards to the right lenghth. They had a hatchet to get all of the little side branches off.... but most of all managed to get themselves completely black from head to toe.
They all liked the end result. And they only got rained on 3 or 4 times.
After we got done with the parade. Tyler decided I needed a good laugh. He got his mustache out of a vending machine, it looks even funnier because it's gray, but he put it on and gave all of us a good laugh as we were driving up the freeway. Did I mention the parade is OVER TOO!!
The Hughes Family Reunion is OVER. We had a fun weekend camping with the grandkids (and their parents) On Saturday we got up early and cooked a mess hall size meal. We had 5 huge pots of sloppy joe meat to feed the crowd. We got down to Red Canyon and got set up just in the nick of time. Everyone ate, played some fun games with the kids, and had a huge auction. We ended up making $540.00 over the budget for them to put in next year's fund. The best part- IT"S OVER- did I say that already. After the reunion we drove up to the little town they have at the mouth of Bryce Canyon. They had some fun stuff to look at...
We found this GREAT "TIME OUT" box. And the best part- they all fit at once.
The boys went on a fun super activity with the young men in our ward. They all went to Lake Powell for three days. None of our kids have ever tried water sking- Well now they HAVE.
Matthew made it up for a few minutes, but said it was something he doesn't want to try again anytime soon. He had fun with alot of the other activities. They played water football (that is football in the water about 2 feet deep) trying to run was a challange- but the tackles were GREAT!
Craig got right up, and actually skied for a while. He thought it was a blast, and wants to go again. They all came home sunburned and tired- but it was FUN!!
