Tyler's Graduation

So here are a few pics from Tyler's Graduation almost a year ago! HEE HEE! We were so proud of him. It was no small task to arrive at this day! Fun times, fun times.




The next few pictures are from the religious ceremony before graduation that is impossible to say and to spell. Jeanne and I went together because Nathan had to work. I am so thankful for all the support she gives to me personally and to my family!

Highway Robbery...


like for realsies! We went this past weekend to spend a couple of days in Mesa before the football playoff game that Tyler and Garett were going to play in on Saturday. On the way there, we stopped at Devils Canyon and got out. Nathan is always telling us that there used to be a cool campground back there and that they closed it off because the pull off was so dangerous. Well we took some cool pictures and only spent about 10 or 15 minutes there....and left all our clothes bags, my new Uggs and Nathan's laptop in the bed of the truck! I know right? Not too smart. Needless to say, when we returned, the laptop and the kids clothes bag... GONE! Consider this a lesson learned! Savannah, Ethan and Ryan were pretty sad because their Friday Night Thatcher Eagle Football shirts with Tylers name and number on the back were stolen as well as Savannah's favorite lime green converse! I guess at least no one was hurt and we were still able to enjoy our weekend. (Pictures to follow later...)

Twilight Canyon with the Jensens

Over the summer I invited everyone I knew to come and go camping with us up on Mt. Graham for a week. The only fools who took the bait were the Jensens! What an amazing time we had. We read books, played games, watched movies outside, took hikes, played in the water at Snow Flat...Oops...and played lots of badminton. It was a total blast and I hope we can do it again!

The big kids in the raft at snow flat.


My budding photographer friend Hannah posed these pictures of me. She would tell me how to make my face and hold my hair...BEAUTIFUL...or something!




Goofy Girls... Hannah and Mariah

It is amazing how many people you can fit into a Ranger! We did some fun geo caching and discovered some awesome trails! What a blast!

Eat more Chicken...


Can I just say this cow was a perv...thank goodness Garett was there to kick him in the udder if he got too inappropriate! This cow had wandering and very strong hooves...who woulda thought?

I fought the dog and the dog won...



So my top 3 scary things:
1. Dogs
2. Mice
3. Snakes

I had not been running in a while and had had a particularly bad day. So I decided to take it to the pavement. The run was great until this piece of crap dog came out and bit the shiz out of my calf while I was running. Luckily I finished my run and the dog ended up being quarantined for a week, just to make sure I wouldn't end up rabid. Lets just say...faced my fear. Next time, I will kick him right in the baby maker.

Traditions from the past

One of the Bryce traditions I love best is getting everyone together and bundling up warm so we can pile in the back of Grandpa's truck and go look at Christmas lights. It is so much fun...freezing, which I hate, but it is a blast! Here we are last year!
