This beautiful site in located on top of Cable Mountain, right next to the Great White Throne. I went there 38 years ago and have been dreaming of a return for a long time. Last Friday, Faith and I made a 3.5mile trip in and then back out from the East park boundry. The edge right behind us, drops off to the canyon floor 1800 feet below. Across the canyon is Angel's Landing that is 800 feet below us. Right below us is the parking lot for Weeping Rock. It is a site to behold. The best part of making the trip is being able to have the pictures to prove that we really made it.

Sorry for not being more currant with events in our lives, but we had to show you our visitor. We knew we lived in the fields, but who would of believed we lived in the real rural part of the world. This friend was eating our pecans with a friend squirrel. The were playing over the hedge, we never really saw the movie, but they had a thing going. This guy took a trip with the animal control officer. He is huge and was angry. He probably won't be back for dessert.

Saturday night of Labor Day Weekend. We went to Maria's in Beaver to celebrate 3 birthdays. Here is Evan with all three of the birthday girls. Actually their birthday wasn't until Tuesday, but we needed an excuse to go out all together for dinner to celebrate. From left to right is, Chantel, Evan ( not my birthday, just the birthday girl holder) Brooklin, and Madison. Faith got us all birthday hats that Madison is wearing.
The Adventurers
We did have a good time on Labor Day. This was taken at
a lunch break just off the trail. We had 16 of us and 5 vehicles. One of the grand kids pushed Evan's kill switch on the 4-wheeler on the left. It would not start till Jake noticed the switch pushed. It is amazing how much better they work when the engine runs.
The coke float break in Marysville was a good one. I can just imagine Dee loving every moment of the ride. He would of loved to be able to ride the mountains so easily.

We have a new family that has moved in on the back patio. This is Mummy Hummy. That is right, she has made her nest on the top of the light bulb. We are going to wait for a little while then turn on the light and have boiled egg. She really doesn' like us going out back, but she will have to get used to us.

You might remember the looks of Willow Lake last fall. You might remember how the cat tails were mostly gone and the island was a little higher, well in the middle of this white lake is a mound and this is the island in the middle of Willow Lake. The clouds are blocking the view to the west, but they sure brought in the storm Friday night. The only way in on Saturday was by snow shoe. My legs are felling the effort.

Winter Wonderland
Saturday Feb. 23rd. Brad, Aaron and Evan tried to make it to the cabin. Too much powdery snow for the snow mobiles. Evan took his four wheeler and put tracks on it and boy did he get stuck. We has some mechanical problems that cost us 24 hours of time to get it out. In the mean time, Evan walked in on snow shoes to the cabin and then over to Willow Lake. Yes, it is frozen over, anyway part is still open where water is still moving. Quite a prett sight. I'll add to this nightly for a while to give you something to look forward too. Pretty sight, don't you think?
Utes Forever
On Saturday, Feb. 16th, We got to go to a basketball game at the "U". The gang at the store got together and gave us tickets and sweatshirts to the game and dinner afterwards. It ended up being one the premier games of the year. They were celebrating 100 years of Basketball at the U and all basketball players that had ever played were invited to return. Then they selected an all century team. We really had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute and even enjoyed watching Utah beat San Diego State. We will always have the Red Blood of Utah in our veins.

Saturday night, we all took to the lanes and went bowling. The high score of the evening was Abby. We kept waiting for the bumper pads to come up for us, but we had no such luck. Here are Jake, Evan, Faith, Chantel, Jared and Abby and Logan. Shannon took the picture, baby Gracie is looking like Shannon swallowed a bowling ball. 9 more days for Shannon and Gracie.

Christmas Eve we had a surprise visitor. Santa!As you can see, some of the girls were not too happy, they were wanting to head the other direction. Santa brought each one a gift. They were so surprised and so scared! Brinly and Brooklin were the bravest of them all. They hugged Santa, and Madison gave knuckles and Taylee screamed.
