Mayfield

Thursday-Sunday of this last week, we headed to Mayfield's 12 mile canyon with Owen's family. We had so much fun. While up there, we celebrated Josh and Laura's 5 year anniversary and Josh's 30th birthday too. Congrats to the both of you!!! (: We all got lots of sun (Yes, I got fried) and enjoyed eachothers company.

The family (minus Laura and baby Jason).

Bo, picking a winner! lol

Our really long four wheel ride. Kodi passed out every time.

The dogs passed out too!

If you look really close, you can see on Bo's arm that there is a tiny frog. The kids loved it!

Yes, there was snow up there, but not much.

All the outdoor beauties God created, Amazing!!!

Some of the deer we spotted, they were everywhere.

Beautiful sunset on the way to Manti.

We also went to the Manti pageant.

Family Reunion

Last Monday-Wednesday we went to Idaho for (my side of the family) the Graham family reunion. It was a BLAST!!! We all went and played at this balloon gym place and had relay races, wrestling matches and just plain fun! I'm pretty sure we had over 50 people playing around there. (:

This is why I don't mess with Owen...

My sister Jana and Skylar

On Tuesday, all the adults and older kids all went on a rafting trip down the Snake River (Idaho part). We had a scary experience with a raft that flipped during some rapids that wasn't a good thing, but thank goodness everyone and everything ended up being OK. We all got lots of sun and had some fun water fights.

We absolutely love getting together with my relatives and can't wait til the next family reunion.

SOOOOO NOT ok with me!!! and a cute pic of Bo. (:

Bo found this nasty guy and started screaming/hyperventilating when he found it. He just started screaming "mom" and I came in and was like, I'll handle it (until I saw the bloody thing). It was HUGE!!!! I say "huge", cause it was.... It was the size of the palm of my hand. I do NOT like spiders and I was trying to think of someone I could call to come over and kill it for me (Owen had to transport a patient to Flagstaff tonight). I couldn't think of anyone, so I had to do it myself. Talk about, not cool! As I sprayed it with the spider killer, this thing started crawling towards me. I didn't think it was going to stop! Don't worry, it did and it is DEAD!!!! (: The End!

This picture was taken as it was dying! I couldn't leave it uncovered with me that close to take the picture. EEEWWWW!!!!!

I'm going to sleep tonight on edge thinking something is climbing on me every 2 seconds!

On a better note, Owen took Bo to Wal-Mart with him yesterday and let him ride the bull. Bo thought he was all that! Isn't he soooo stinkin' cute? (:

Antilope Canyon/Slot Canyon

Owen and I were hooked up with a tour of the Antelope/Slot Canyon. I had only seen pictures of this place my whole life, so I was really wanting to see it in person. We didn't want to take all our kids, so we got a sitter and took Kodi with us. Owen and I really enjoyed the tour and had a fun time walking threw and taking pictures. It was absolutely beautiful and to think, it was made by water and sand!!! Anyway, I hope these pictures show you what we saw and enjoy! (:

The darker rock (above my head) the Navajo call the Bear. Can you tell why?

This is our wonderful tour guide and photographer Deb. She was wonderful and if any of you ever decide to do this tour, ask for her and tip well!! (;

Just an extra large sand box for this kid!
