Labor day weekend

I thought I would actually document our lives since the reunion. We went as a family to the Salt Lake Temple friday night to do some baptisms for the dead. Cortnee is now 12 and this was her first time. Marc was able to baptize both of them and I watched. It is always fun to watch your kids doing new and different things. We then had a nice family dinner at Biaggis (I think that is how you spell it.) at the Gateway.

Saturday we hung out at home and then headed out to the IKEA store that is fairly new to our area. I had been before with Noreen but none of the rest of the family had. Ashlee and Cortnee fell in love with the cool beds that have desks underneath. If they could have those for Christmas they wouldn't ask for anything else. Hmmmmmmm. IKEA does have some good space saving ideas. We then headed to Lagoon. We got there around 5:00 and left at closing. It was really not very busy. Kind of surprised me. I didn't take my camera but did get one picture on my phone.

Sunday went to church and then took engagement pictures for Jordan and Amanda. I sure do wish I could post some of them because they turned out very nice. I don't think they would like all of the thousands of visitors to my blog (I am quite popular reading) ha, ha, to see their pictures before they do.

So tomorrow will be a toss up between spending time with friends or going to Tooele to visit family. We shall see what tomorrow brings.

Marc is going riding with some of his friends.

The picture to the right was taken a month or so ago up American Fork canyon. Marc is really enjoying the rides they go on. Tomorrow they are heading up to Deer Valley riding the tram up and then riding their bikes down. I told him it sounds crazy but since he married me he must qualify. I'm glad he is enjoying it.

Just relaxing

After all of the team building stuff we hung out at the pavilion. There was some phase 10 being played and lots and lots of eating.

this is harder than it looks

Everyone enjoyed walking on the wire tight rope. We then headed off to a couple of different areas. One of them was a big see saw. Everyone started on one end and you walked until the see saw was exactly balanced. The sister missionary was our neighbor way, way, way back when we lived in Granger( a city that is now called west valley) She and her husband are serving a mission here at Heber valley girls camp. It was great to see her.

more wire team work

Marc has always loved abstract photography. So when pictures like this one show up I'm not even that surprised any more. Of course everyone else tells me they like it. However, the one time we went to take pictures of our friends big white lab named Murphy, I don't think anyone really liked that there was not a whole picture of the dog. So thanks Marc for throwing in the whole people in many of the pictures.

Fun times on the obstacle course

The yellow shoes are Jeri's. Quite cute we all thought. We found out that you had to have shoes for this course and a trip to Heber City didn't give her a lot of options. So this is what she got. She said they gripped the wire nicely.

and even more.....

I guess you have figured out that this is a zip line.

more family time

I love spending time with our family. We went saturday morning and did a cope course? It is kind of an obstacle course but more of a team building experience. I have so many pictures and I don't want to take a year to get them all loaded. So here we go again.
