Kennecott Mine

I needed to go to the Kennecott mine to get some extra credit for my geology class. The little kids thought that would be fun to go see.

Of course they got bored ten minutes into the ride and started to entertain themselves.

Driving up

The size of tires on the mining trucks!

The mine! My great grandpa worked on this mine

After Scott looked through the binoculars he asked if he could go home.

The mine was so big! The last time I saw this mine was about 6 years ago. It is much bigger now.

Zoo!

There was nobody at the zoo! Best part. . . it was free!!

Who doesn't want to kiss a big hairy monkey!?

Just us being weird

All the kids that went to the zoo that day.

Scott, Amber, and I tragically trapped in a spider's web

A Whole New Decade

So all of these pictures are backwards. I don't know how to fix them. . .

All of the kids started to get bored so we played truth or dare. . . Amber got a mustache

Miriam being creepy

Cute family

What we all looked like ten years ago

The contents of our time capsule

Our wonderful time capsule we made ten years ago! Scott wasn't born yet and Mom was pregnant with Amber at the time. The question mark at the top is Amber. . .

James & Melody's family opening up their time capsule

The napkin of all the girls wedding dates. We made it like 11 years ago. We will see how accurate they are

Scott was very good at bowling. He actually beat me! He also found a fun seat

Amber just getting a strike

Apparently I always lift my left leg when I bowl. . .

Chad teaching Quincee the basics

Watching Scott

Chad and Wade. . .they scored the highest

Cute Aunt Lynette and Uncle Wade

Scott loved bowling!

What to Wear

Amber: Mom, what should I wear?
Mom: Just wear a skirt.
Amber: I can't go topless!

Palisades

Starting outThere was some construction an hour in to our drive. We ended up turning off the car and chillin' for 15 minutes.
Windmills
Green!

Manti TempleWe needed to come look at this campground to see if it was any good for our family reunion in the fall. Mom, Miriam, Amanda, Amber, Scott and I went.

I don't know what everyone was pointing at

Amanda and I started to set the tent up when. . . we realized that we had no stakes. No worries! We used sticks, nails, and screws. We got it up fast with no mistakes! We don't need men

Palisade Lake

The dock

Water fight!

Scott's shoe started to float away. We made Miriam try to swim after it. It was so far away that we made her put on Scott's life jacket. . . just in case.

She didn't want to swim that far. Some nice kids decided to help out

Poor Scott was very upset

Mim thought we were doing funny faces

We were so tired we ended up getting ready for bed at ten! It is a good thing too cause we had to get up at 5:30. We got up and loaded the car in 24 minutes. The kids needed to get home for swimming lessons. . .
