First Football Game

Rylee's first football game was held down at
Roy. It was very, very, very, hot. Jim had to go
to Wal-Mart and get an E-Z up tent thing for us to
sit under. Thanks Jim.
The team played good.

This is the view from the inside of the new E-Z up tent thingy.

We won, 24 to 6, I think.

Property Remodel

In the Beginning............
Kip and Jim had to mastermind the production to
know where to start.

This is some of the equipment that was used.

Here we go, over the edge to begin making an
entrance.


These are the initial cuts. We should be able to
put the water tank up on the top and then a trailer
on the next pad.



This is what it looked like when we had to leave
for the day. Down where the backhoe is working will
be a large pad for a cabin (way in the future).


In this picture you can kind of see where we are
in retrospect to the trailers at Boyd and Pam's


We had a really fun day just Jim and I watching
Kit work his magic on the hillside. I am sure that it
will be alot different when we get back up there
and see the final work. It might even have gravel on the road.

This is the backed up traffic we ran into trying to

get up Weber Canyon. As we were waiting our turn

in line, a man pulled up to the side of us and told us

that something was leaking really bad. We knew

exactly what it was. Tranny fluid.....arghhhhhhhhhh

It was really hot waiting in the traffic, about 101 degrees.

So we pulled off to the side of the road and let it cool

down and then started it and raced up a little bit,

(making alot of people mad in the process) and then took

the exit to the South Weber Park and ride. We sat there for

about a half hour and then raced to the

freeway entrance and made it up the canyon. It probably

took us an extra hour or so....but we made it home and had

a pretty fun day.

Back to School

Yeah, the first day of school!!!



We seem to always have some sort of tragedy
right before school starts. This was a result of the
pedal falling off his bike and him taking a dive.
luckily it was only his right leg and elbow. No facial
wounds.

So I decided to do a major "HGTV" room makeover.

Blakeley came and helped me out and we redid Rylee's

bedroom.

See how boring the befores are?

And pretty messy.

TA Da!!! I think we did good.

Cleaned it all up and gave it a new outdoorsey

feel.

He loved it!!!


Then the boys came over just as we were

finishing up supper and Tagg climbed right up

with "PAAA" and ate the rest of Rylee's plate.



And Treyson could not be outdone.

All together we had a good first day of school.

I think that I will be a little lonely this year

but I am sure that I will find something to take

up my time.

Rylee's family birthday part

We had a family birthday party for Rylee to have Cake and
Ice Cream on Sunday.
Treyson and Tagg came over.





Grandpa, Grandma Wilkerson, Dakoda, Colton and Oaklee came

Kelly and Rocky were also there.

The boys had a good time playing basketball.

Even the little ones got to play.

Then we had cake and Rylee blew out his Candles.

10 of them all. I think that a little wind helped him out.

Pam and Boyd and the girls were also there. Mackenzie

and CJ were there too. Thanks for coming everyone.

Rylee 10th Birthday

Rylee's 10th birthday was held at "Toads Fun Zone"

He was able to take a couple of friends with him and they
played laser tag, played in the arcade and then played
mini golf.

Garrett and Rylee raced on the motorcycles.

They also tried out the dancing machine.

Thanks for going with us, Rylee, John and Garrett

His dad gave him the Mongoose bicycle that he was

wanting so bad.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYLEE,

WE LOVE YOU

FISHING

Pauline and Randy went up to the Unitahs camping
and asked us to ride up and have breakfast with them.
we left about 6 am and took the drive up thru Kamas.
It was a nice ride and there was a big bicycle race going on.
Good thing that they were coming towards us so that I did not have
to try to dodge them with the sun in my eyes.

This is what we saw right in the campground as we
were pulling in. I big bull and cow just grazing. I
wish that I had taken a better picture. They are
actually eating right in the middle of all of the camping
trailers and tents.

It was a beautiful morning.


We got there just in time. Randy's brother and family
were just getting breakfast ready. Coincidence? I think not...



After breakfast we sat around the fire and talked.
It was chilly enough to need a jacket.




Wow I bet you cannot tell that this is his first time
FISHING. You should have seen him after going
into the store and buying his first "2 DOZEN WORMS"
He was so excited..





Ready to head to the lake....

The lake was nearby and was very pretty.

The sisters went down and sat on a rock. We just

watched the drowning of the worms...

Tia was worn right out. I think it was the altitude.

She really did not have to work really hard at anything

while we were there but she likes her morning nap.

We had a really good time and thank Pauline, Randy

Gary and Diane for letting us join them.

We hope to return the favor soon.

COUNTY FAIR

Ahh the good ole County Fair. CJ talked me into going up for the kids games on Friday. It was actually very nice. They had some great kids games. I got to see some people that I had not seen in a while.



This was a "kid wash" it was like a car wash and they could run thru it and cool off. Treyson loved it. It had sponges hung and then some wet strips hanging down. Who ever had this idea it was a great one. Tagg on the other had did not think this was so fun. He would not go thru it.

I got to visit with Tim, Stacy and Bob. We sat in the shade and had a great time.

While I was visiting, Tagg decided that he would get brave and he did run thru the
"KID WASH" I did not have my camera with me to take the pics of him actually in the wash but this is the aftermath.

They had an awesome lady doing some pretty cool face painting. You had to stand in line quite a while but it was worth it. I had one like this done for Rylee in Disneyland and it cost me a fortune.

Treyson sat very still but oh he really did want to see what was happening.

He wanted fire coming out of the mouth and also people burning in the fire. CJ and Zac you better watch this one.....

Then we went and walked thru the animals. I remember when they were not so tame. This one about came thru the fence and licked Tagg. He did not like it when it got so close. It started to eat my stroller when I was not watching..

Then they had a little pen that bunnies were running around in. The kids could climb in there and try to catch them. They hop pretty slow but are pretty hard to grab. Treyson tried to talk this little girl into grabbing him one.

Treyson finally got one.

Tagg liked to pet them but did not want to hold one.

Cotton Candy was a hit. CJ put some in Taggs mouth and I thought he was going to hurl. Then when she was not looking he grabbed a whole handful.

He was not sure what to do with it....

He finally learned that if you lick it, it disappears.....and it tastes pretty good!

Now for the clean up.....Tagg get some wet wipes and get started..

All in all we had a pretty good day at the fair. Jim and I rode back up in the evening and ate some fair food. It is really nice the way they do it now so that you don't have to pay to get in just to the Rodeo part of the fair. You can go in and view all the exhibits and eat and visit and spend money that way. Way to go Morgan!!!
