Our Trip to UT...

Here is our trip to UT. We did a lot, and I don't feel like adding a ton of captions, so enjoy the pics.

Carol informed me I needed to add captions.

Swimming at my parents house.

We miss our Peyton Walter!





Swimming wipes you out!

Cora giving some wild flowers to Aunt B.

Mom and Dad at the canyon picnic.

The kiddos up the canyon. We miss the mountains a lot.

Roasting some mallows for some S'mores.

MMMMMMMMMM s'mores!
Mmmmmmm s'mores (again).

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, s'mores (and again)

How cool was it that there was still snow on the mountains.

Emmett riding Susie's dog.

We dropped in to see Grandpa Andrus, and he wheeled out the Doctors carriage for the girls and E.

We spent an afternoon with the Cardon's. I particularly like Bones' boots.



We also got to go see Carol's Grandpa.





Then we went Temple Square and toured the Supernacle, and the grounds.



And these are the end as we were getting ready to leave. We miss you all!

quick update

So, I know it's been a while.....sorry.
I just wanted to post pics of some recent happenings. In mid june, we went to the Denton Air Show! I fondly remember going to air shows with my family as a kid. So I thought that I would share that with my family. It was quite hot and Josh was a little bored, so we didn't stay long enough to see the actual planes in the air, but we got more of a ground show. Emmett loved it though. When we were leaving he kept telling Josh that we needed to stay at the airport!
I don't have my knowledgable dad here to tell me what kind of planes these were, when they were made and used, etc. But here are a few pics to prove that we are still alive and well.


All I remember my dad telling me about is this plane below. I don't remember what it is, but I do remember that these were the planes used in the Doolittle Raid on Japan in the second war.
The kiddos in the belly of the plane
The weekend after that we went to San Marcos and San Antonio to see some newly transplanted Fish family. Here are the Fish Texans getting to "ride" the San Marcos river. We stayed two nights in San Antonio with Abe and Meredith! It was so nice to see them and we are very happy to have them so much closer!
We got home from Utah on Monday, and I have a ton of pictures that I need to sort through and post. I will hopefully post them with in the week
