Family trip to Island Park Cabin





This past weeekend we all went to stay at a cabin in Island Park. We get a really good deal if we want to go up, it's through my boss. We went up friday after work and just got back today. Olivia and Charly both took up a friend, which are sisters, they had a really good time, we didn't have any real major fights or arguments.

Shauna took up some crafts and paints to keep them busy. We all enjoyed the hot tub, and just being couch potatoes, watching movies and tv. The weather was wonderful!! However, it is nice to be back home.

BYU football trip!!

Shauna and I had a great time at the BYU football game this past saturday. It was so fun to be in that kind of atmosphere. The stadium was packed and very loud, it was awesome!! It was very entertaining to watch some of the students. We really enjoyed the marching band, they were very good. We're all ready to go attend some more football games at Lavell Edwards Stadium. After the game we went to Beau and Candace's and stayed the night with them. It was great to see them and the boys. Gavin and Landon are so cute, I just wanted to hold and squeeze them. Landon let me hold him, Gavin was just to busy with his cars and motorcycles, which he calls his "crucks". We had a wonderful weekend!!

Basketball Season!!

Savannah decided to try out for basketball, after she had so much fun playing volleyball. We found out last Thursday that she had made the 8th grade team. We are all very excited!! And proud of her!! They kept 15 girls on the team, they had between 30-40 for try outs. I'll put on their schedule when it comes out.

Refereeing grid kid football in St. Anthony

Today I was up in St. Anthony officiating football. We had a good rain storm come through at the end of our first game. Our second game was South Fremont 5th grade vs. Rocky Mountain.
The weather was perfect, the game was a little lopsided, favoring South Fremont. I was able to see Mitch play some ball. He did a great job playing offensive line, it's great that he can get some experience playing on the 5th grade team as a 4th grader. He'll do some great things with the more experience he gets. Keep up the hard work!! Stay excited and have fun.

Volleyball season coming to an End.

Savannah has had a great time playing on the 8th grade volleyball team. She has made some new friends. She has really enjoyed traveling around to different schools to compete against some good competition. At Madison, they have an A and B team. The A team is the girls that are more advanced, Savannah has played with the B team most of the season. She just hasn't had enough years playing. They had 42 girls try out for 15 positions. Savannah was the only girls to make the team with no prior experience, we were very proud of her. She has really improved a lot in the short time that she has played. She still has a lot to learn about the game but her fundamentals are getting better all the time. The team has had some team parties, just so the girls can get to know each other better. Tonight they're going to a girls house, and her dad is a doctor here in town, it's a swimming party, they have an indoor pool.

Bryce and Shauna's Bike Adventure






This year for Shauna's birthday we decided to get away just the two of us.

Yes, that's right, it was just Shauna and I.

We left for our little adventure Saturday about 1pm. We rode over to Hailey, Ketchum/Sun Valley. We drove around Ketchum because we had not been there before, it was really cool, it's a lot like a little Jackson Hole. After that we continued north towards Stanley, Idaho. We stopped at a lodge called Smiley Creek Lodge, it was very cozy and it had a restaurant, the food was very good, we ate dinner and breakfast there. Sunday morning we woke up to a beautiful day. We left at 10am and rode to Redfish Lake, that was sure pretty!! We then continued our adventure up to Stanley and then over to Challis, Id. and then up to Salmon. We loved the scenery, riding along the Salmon river was a real treat. After we stopped in Salmon to stretch our legs we decided to come home. Over the past day and a half we rode 530 miles, and they were all worth it. We saw some wildlife, a fox that crossed right in front of us just north of Ketchum. We saw a lot of deer in the Salmon River from Stanley over to Salmon. We had a great time!!
