College Graduation

I am finally done with my Bachelors Degree at Dixie State University! (May 2014) I know Jennifer isn't in this picture at the college, but she showed up later at the barbeque to surprise me. It was a fun weekend with all of my kids.

Fishing 2014

We spent a lot of time fishing this summer. We tried Enterprise, but liked the fishing in Panguitch Lake the most. Even though Kary is holding this huge fish- I CAUGHT IT! As a matter of fact I caught the biggest fish every trip this whole summer.

We had enough big fish to bottle some of the meat. It was fun just to hang out with the boys and listen to them joke around. I got told I had to gut the fish for catching the biggest one. I helped- but Kary did most of the work. Fun Summer !!!

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.
