ULCER - Utah Lake Century Epic Ride
This last Saturday Brandon and his brother Jeremy rode the ULCER! They finished the whole 111 miles averaging 18.9 mph! Brandon didn't train for this event besides two 45 mile rides so I am so happy for him that he finished and finished well! I think they had a great time and Brandon even says he might do it again!

The Grotto
We hiked the Grotto up Payson Canyon again this year. It did not go well. Everyone ended the outing mad.
We started happy:
But Caleb got mad because he forgot the water was about 40 degrees and didn't want to get in:
Then Brynley was mad ... I don't remember why. I'm sure it was something good.
Then Aubrey was sad because we were leaving and she didn't want to but mom and dad didn't want to stay there with mad big kids.
Maybe we'll try it again next year.

Fort Columbia and Grandma's House - Our trip to Seattle
Last week we went to WA to visit with Brandon's family. We had such a great time! We started the vacation by staying in a vacation house at Fort Columbia which is right where the Columbia River meets the Pacific. The house was HUGE! It housed our family, Jeremy and Angie and kids, Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Jordan. The halls were long and wide and perfect for running up and down while screaming.
There were bunkers to play in, paths to hike, light houses to visit and all sorts of fun stuff.
After a few days there we went to Grandma's house in Seattle. We stayed there for a few days.
While we were there Grandpa, Brandon, Jeremy, Collin and Jordan hiked up to Rachel Lake and camped.
Us girls and kids stayed home and did crafts, did a "cousin photo shoot" and had salads for dinner. Now if that's not a girl's day I don't know what is.
On our last day we went to Northwest Trek which is kind of like a sarfari mixed with a zoo. You ride a train around and see all sorts of moose, bison, big horn sheep, deer, etc. It was really cool and the kids loved it.
She was a little bugged Grandma pulled the plug
We had so much fun up there with all of Brandon's family. We love going there when everyone is there. Thanks Mom and Dad for letting us invade your house and make a huge mess of it! We loved every minute!
