Then and Now

One of Jared's properties is up in Roosevelt, UT. When he had to go visit this property last he took Ashton & Conner with him.  They went a little further to Vernal to see the Dinosaur Monument.  The last time we went there was when Conner was a baby.  Now we have these two photos of Conner on the same rock!

Boys Weekend with "Grandpa Jack"

Our friend (and Jared's "maintenance" guy for work) Jack took my boys camping.  He's the greatest.  Ashton and Conner were so excited! Jared was in charge of food (good assignment for him!) and Jack had everything else: camper, 4-wheelers, guns, knowledge ;o).  It was just for one night, but they had a blast.

Jack's giving them the 411 on guns

Conner looks afraid for his life!

If you look closely in the background you can see the orange targets they were shooting.



You're never too far away from home to call your mother!!  No need to cut those apron strings too soon :o)

Powdered doughnuts, anyone?




Jared always takes a few nature shots!

Meet the Dogs

Most people don't know we have a dog, let alone two!  We've had Abbie since Christmas of 2006.  She is a miniature Australian Shepherd/Toy Poodle mix.  She's a good dog. Except for when she sees an open door - she runs for it! I can't tell you how many times Jared's gone running down 10th after her.  Sometimes with his apron still on.  That's my man!

They love to play.  Abbie has to be tied down, but not Roxy.

Abbie.  She needs a haircut. 

Roxy.  She's a chihuahua, if you couldn't tell.
