This was our attempt at a hike. It was a disaster. The kids no likey hiking that day. So we turned around and went home, but still got a couple pictures.
Dirty kid. But cute.
Fresh from Indiana, I find mountains very awe-inspiring.
Brett dressed up for an interview and I couldn't keep my eyes off him the rest of the day. I didn't let him change back into regular clothes. Mmmm-mmm.
Wow he's hot.
Helping shuck the corn.
I'm thinking my genes didn't really get to Hazel. She's looking quite a bit like her daddy.
How to get even hotter? Add a horse.
Awww--what a good-lookin' fellow. (And Fahs Elle, mi caballo favorito.)
smoochie.
My sister Lindsay and her friend Aleesha (behind her--the one getting married fyi).
Brett liked doing wheelies on his nephew's little motorcycle. The same little motorcycle I crashed in October. But who remembers that.
The birthday dinner. Man, it was good. Steak, corn on the cob, salmon, marinated chicken, macaroni salad, and these surprisingly delish cheesy hotdogs.
My lovely and brilliant oldest sista, Megan.
Happy birthday to the cutest 1-year-old ALIVE!!! (we neglected his birthday in the move)
The fantabulous pirate cake my sister Andrea and her hubby Tim created for the occasion. They are amazing.
Look at those teeth!--that was my favorite part.
My sista Megan gave me my long-dream-of pirate party. She got eye-patches and weapons for everyone. It was soooooooooooooo awesome.
I love Andrea's hair.
I love Hazel's pirate scowl. Ha ha!
It was a party for me, Tim (we share the same awesome birthday-- with Pres. Monson too), Jethro (who was also sorta neglected in the traveling and move. His presents are in a box somewhere in the trailer), and Talmage.
Here're some of the cousins waiting for cake.
Brett pulled his motorcycle off of the trailer to go for some rides.
My dad hopped on for a ride too. I think it was more so mom could ride behind him than for the actual riding.
And the cutest kid this side of the everywhere.
Tonight Brett and I played against Mom and Dad in Rook. I had an amazing hand, and Dad remarked as I was raking in everyone's cards, "Shoot, she's doing exactly what I taught her--the little stinker." :) He said there was a certain joy in losing because he knew he'd taught me well. (I led everyone out of trump.) I wish I could say it was a 300 hand, but we were one hand short. No pointers though.
The end.
