2011 Camping Trip

We went on our first annual camping trip up Cedar Mountain. It was an awesome adventure, and the area was beautiful. Our campsite was surrounded by aspen trees, we were just down the street from Duck Creek, and there were amazing hikes all around us.

We'll definitely have to come back to this area again!

Alex's 7th Birthday and G and G Tidwell's Visit

This summer our air conditioner went out for the third time in three years so instead of paying a fortune to have a new one put in we paid to have Matt and Sheri or Grandpa and Grandma Tidwell come out. Grandpa fixed the air conditioner, and hung out with us for a couple days then he let us keep Grandma for a week to help with the kids.

It was so fun having them here, and the kids had fun getting to know Grandma Tidwell.
