Lagoon

We went to Lagoon over the weekend, and quite frankly it rained on us. Austin, however, had the best seat of the house. He was in his bubble stroller surrounded by blankets, snacks, and he could watch the rain from under a clear plastic protection. After a while he did get bored, and resorted to this....

I am just glad we can bounce back for cheep, or I would have been super bummed by the weather.

This trailers a rockin!

I wish I had done a before and after thing here but picture this. 30 year old blue flat matted dirty disgusting stained carpet, with brown and orange plaid beds and bench covers.

and now, introducing our newly renovated.....TENT TRAILER!













Thanks to the Tuckers for the carpet, and Kevin's mom for recovering the bed and bench pads we have a whole new thing going on here.
Kevin convinced me that we needed a tent trailer as a part of our 72 hour emergency kit. If an earthquake was to hit, this would be our temporary home that had heat, a stove, a fridge and a place to sleep. Now, I know he was just saying this to get me to buy one so we can take it on our family outings, but he has a valid point. So we saved up and were able to purchase this lovely item. I couldn't stand it being old and dirty so for the grand total cost of $80.00 we were able to remodel. and viola! I am so stoked to go camping!!

Howdy

Over Memorial Day weekend, we went up to the cabin in the Uintahs. We love to go there, and the older Austin gets the more fun he has. This year he was actually old enough to really enjoy the ATV ride. He also spent a little time out in the yard playing in the "kids cabin". We had a great time.
However, the trip home was a real 'I told you so' trip. Kevin didnt want to come home, but I did. I wanted to come home for church, he wanted to vacation. Now before you all think Kevin is the devil because he wanted to ditch church, hear this story out. We were driving through the canyon in a rain storm when our windshield wipers stoped working. It actually was really frightening, and after we pulled over off the side of the road, I got the 'I told you we should have stayed' look from Kevin. We tried to see if we could fix it, but we were unsucessful. With the combination of toilet paper, and a little luck of a break in the storm we were able to make it home safely. Things like this do not detour us from camping.














These are some cute pictures of the Fathers and sons outting the Kevin and Austin went to. I swear, he makes a pretty handsome cowboy. When kevin sets Austin in the truck, he says "brooooom broooom" and grabs the stearing wheel and the gear shift. I am actually pretty sure one day he sill figure out the gear shift and I will be sorry.





Kevin plays church softball on thursdays, and it really fun to go watch them as a family outting. Yes, i feel like I am packing the whole house with me to the field, and everyone looks at me like I am some sort of mule when I am packing it over to the bleechers, but it was sure fun to watch. go 17th ward!
