Missed Summer Photos/Utah Trip

Beautiful day!

Labor Day weekend with the Dobbs
Kids on the boat
Boys on the boat
We had a pull-up competition to pass the time as we were being towed to shore.  I think Kelton won!
Girls and Kelton
Aunt Kathy
Uncle Ryan and Hailey enjoying being towed back to shore.  It took over an hour to get back to shore.  The people that towed us back were so kind and would not take any payment for their time and gas to tow us.  They just said to tow the next guy.  There are a lot of good people in the world we just here so much about all the bad.  It is amazing how the negative can overwhelm the good.  

Views from my car window.

 After Brooklyn's Baptism the Dobbs took everyone to Claim Jumper!  We always have a blast with the cousins.  I feel sorry for kids that don't have cousins to grow up with!   My kids are so blessed to have Awesome cousins.
Grandma and Grandpa came which was soooo much fun!
Aunt Kathy got the new iPhone so she was taking those panoramic photos with the new feature.  Having a few technical difficulties as the people in the picture have to stay still.  
Carson was the smart guy who prepared by wearing a T-shirt under his Sunday shirt, so he could strip down after the baptism into something more comfortable.  He cracks me up!
We had not seen our Utah Family in 2 years so we decided it was time to make the 9hr drive to see them.  After living 36hrs away from everyone, 9 hrs seemed like a walk in the park!
We made our first stop at Corn Belly's.  A pumpkin patch at Thanksgiving Point in Utah.  I love how the sunbeams shine down in this picture.  I love the sky!
Kara on the boat!
Halle on the jumping bean.
Kelton's over talking to Brent.  Showing him how to get into the Pumpkin Patch.  Brent had a meeting with a client so he was a little late to the party.
Snacks with Stace and crew.  We could not believe how much the Christensen girls had grown up.  We barely recognized them.
Into the corn mazes

A little bull roping!  Halle road while Kelton takes care of the roping.  He is so good at making sure his sister is taken care of.
Hayden and Brent racing up and down the Hay.  Hayden won!
Brent a little bummed about being over taken by his 13 year old.  Strategizing how he can beat him next time.




The big Chair!  We were here 3 years ago so had to get another picture in the BIG chair.
My cute kids that are getting so old.
The girls all got to go to the Salon where Manny had set up a day of facials, pedicures, hair cuts, make-up, and just lots of fun.  It was so nice.  I don't think I had been to a Salon since the last time we came to Utah.  I forgot how nice it was.  
The girls had so much fun and felt so beautiful after.  Halle was in Heaven with the glitter polish.
We had to do some posing after!

Thanks Manny for making us feel so pampered.  We appreciate you trading your services for us.  We are so glad you are our Manny!!
After the Salon we headed over to where the boys had been spending their time!  I think it was called the Provo Surf ..........  I can't remember but it was lots of fun.
Kara on the Merry-go-round. 
 Halle all pooped out.  She has been wearing her pumpkin hat nonstop since September.  It is now November and she still wears it all the time.  She loves hats.  Hailey knitted her a new hat and it is her new favorite thing.  She is such a funny girl.  We just love her.
 My little Hayden who is getting so old.  I still think he should be a Lawyer.  He can argue like no other.  He is getting so mature now and is a good brother and kid.

 Maggie got her face painted.  
 We had lots of fun with the Christensen's.  Time just went by way too fast.
 After the Tuba-fest we went to the Creamery in Provo.  The line for ice cream was forever long!  Frankie was at Sadie's.  I think that is what it is called.  The one where you wear matching shirts and go to a dance.  Anyways, we can't believe she is a senior and can date!  Stace also invited Haley and Taylor over for dinner and they brought their boyfriend and girlfriend.  It was lots of fun to see them and meet their dates too.  I'm guessing the Hucks Clan might have a few weddings here soon.  Gosh I'm getting old.
 The boys at the Provo place.

 The Rope Course.  That is Kelton over there.
 Hayden hooking in.




 The kids surfing it up!
 Hayden and Halle!

Kara!  They had this little surf area.  The kids had a blast.  Definitely would recommend it.  It is located in the river bottoms.  I only have video of them doing the real Surfing.  Maybe I'll post some some day!
