Fish Lake Trail

Gord and Maddie and Gord's friends and their daughters recently went on a hike in Utah by SLC. They got back the day before school started and had tons of fun! After the hike they went and saw Linsey get married and toured Temple Square.

The Bravest of them all...

Anna got her ears pierced this July and was the bravest child in our family to get their ears pierced. The whole thing was over in less than 30 seconds. She wanted blue earrings and after two years of uncertainty  it happened. She loves them and looks great!

South Padre Island, Tx

We got back from South Padre today after an amazing week long trip. We went with our friends the Fennegans to their most awesome beach house.  We had a blast and can't wait to go again. We went surfing, fishing, Schlitterbahning (water park), photographing, swimming, bbqing, and having tons of fun at the beach!! 

We woke up really early one morning and went to go take pictures on the beach for our Christmas card. Everyone looked super cute, thanks to the humidity. 
We went to a different beach and had a barbeque on the beach (hotdogs and s'mores) and played in the amazing wonders of the sand dunes! left to right (Reaves, Cade, Anna, Tanner)
Drizzle towers were everyone's favorite and here are all of the kids except for Reaves. We are at the beach closest to the beach house. It is only a 20 sec walk to the beach! 
Nothing to see here . . . move along . . . 

South Padre sunrise the same morning we took the first picture.  The sunsets and sunrises are amazing!

Claws said to be so sharp you can cut yourself just by looking! ahhhh! Feisty little creatures that show no mercy...
