August 16, 2016


Great week, we had family trek.  Miah and I look 
awesome in our pioneer dresses.


Little Ruby in her dress.


Look how great Gib looked.


Family Photo, everyone there except Kendrick.
Plus we had Katie's Nephew Crawford with us also.


The kids had a good time pulling the cart, for a little while.


What a great memory for us.


Some must push and some must pull and some just ride.


Haelly looking fine.


Old pioneer men on trek.


When the boys got tired of pulling they started looking for
bones.  They found a treasure, a full vertebrae in the dirt.
They used Quinn's pocket knife to excavate the six vertebrae.
Yes, they took them home with them.


Sam in a badger hole. After this picture he disappeared, we
never saw him again.


A family who treks together, stays together.


After the trek we went into Evanston to the drag race trek.
There we watched our new friends race their car.  It was being
driven by 14 year old Payton.  She was awesome.
Her dad took time to tell all of us about the car.
Payton is dressed and ready to race.


This is just before she started the car.


Isn't that the coolest car.  She set a track record that day.
She went 139 mph and start to finish in 5.01 seconds.
What a great day for us.



They let all the kids climb inside and sit.  Here is Sam.

Next we headed to Bear River State Park to play.


They had fun digging in the sand.


Digging in the sand.


Jackson found and caught a small fish.
They caught several frogs also.


Ruby sunning herself.
Notice the sandy feet.


Morgan and Zach


Michael, Jeff and Jeremiah.


Ruby and Sully, what a pair.


This was a final activity, playing in the trek center.
Cousins are so fun.



On Thursday we went on a history tour with our friend
Ryan Richens.  We love going each year with him.
Seeing the pioneer trail never gets old.


This is the trail from Mormon flat to Big Mountain, the last big climb for them.


Yep, Life on the trail is always fun.


Trip to the Brigham City Tabernacle on Wednesday.
The temple was closed so we went on to the Ogden Temple.
But, first we made a stop at Maddox's for a great lunch.


Last night we made the trip out to Lester's Ranch for a 
final party  with the Evanston Stake Presidency.  They
fed us ribs, ribs, ribs, and then we were blessed to 
watch several bowling balls shoot out of their cannon.
Truly, the people of Wyoming know  how to play.
Thanks for a great season.  We love you.
We finished the night with a fireside and testimony meeting
with Elder Durham our new area Authority Seventy and his wife Mary.
They loved the POWER BOWLING also.


One last photo.  A porta john on a train.  Wow, life can't
get much better.
