Exploring the old cabin

4-wheeling is exhausting

    Zach, the girls and I decided we needed a few hours away so we called up Grandpa and Grandma and got them in on the fun.  We recruited Katie and Ethan and Shay met up with us as well.  We all pilled in and head up Lake Canyon.  It was a beautiful sunny day, perfect for a 4-wheeler ride.  We did lots of exploring and scouting for arrow heads.  We even found a few!  It was a perfect little day outing with some of our favorite people!

Back Yard Fun

 Our new swing set!!!
Thank you Larin, Jessica and kids!
Keagan loves that she can get in and out by herself

This is Kabree's favorite thing to do on the swing...
...and this
Keagan loves the slide 
Our new disc golf basket 

 Jumping on the tramp

    We have done a lot of work to our yard this year and still have a lot to go!  However, we are enjoying our yard as much as we can.  Larin and Jessica got a new swing set last year so they gave us their old one!!!  We LOVE it, we play on it everyday!  Keagan loves the kiddie swing, she loves that she can get in and out by herself!  Of coarse they love the slide!!!  Kabree loves the "bird perch" as we call it : ).  
    We are still loving our Tramp that Heather got us 3 years ago, it hasn't gotten even a little bit old.  Keagan LOVES jumping on the tramp and asks to every day!  We love jumping, throwing balls, drawing with chalk and of coarse the sprinkler on the tramp.  We have yet to sleep on it and Kabree has the plans in the making!
    Zach got a disc golf basket for Father's Day this year and the kids are having a lot of fun with it.  So as you can see we are loving summer, getting lots of sun and enjoying our backyard fun!!!

    Kabree and Hanna got to go to Cheer camp this week!  They had so much fun!  The got to paint nails, get their faces painted, learn cheers, learn dances, do stunts and gymnastics.  They were so excited about their new t-shirts and headbands!  All of the Highland cheerleaders were great, they were such a fun group of girls that did great with the kids!  Hanna and Kabree LOVED both days and were sad when they were over.  We will for sure be signing up again next year!
