White Water Rafting





In June we went down the South Fork american River. We were signed up to go down the Middle Fork but the week before we had a heat wave and the rapids were too big so they closed it...Boy am I glad that they had us go down the South Fork {easier of the three} because I thought I was gonna die! It was crazy and I definitley am glad to have checked that off my bucket list along with the other few that I will do just once, skydiving, karaoke, and the roller coaster X2 @ Magic Mountain...Lol ;)




Our group: Me, Josh, his dad Kent, his bro Jesse, his sis April and her hubby Eric




Fun Memories and Fun Times!








This is when Kent traveled over to my side and I swear I thought we were gonners Lol...









Josh is in front on right and he is falling overboard and Eric pulls him back in...














and here is my favorite...from front right clockwise: Josh, Eric, Me, Tourguide Sam from Australia, Kent, April and Jesse...We look like we know what we are doing...;)









Are we even there still?? lol, Just Kent...









I love this where Jesse looks like a little kid ;)

Folsom Lake

Hope you are enjoying your summer as much as we are...One of our favorite places to go up here in Sacramento is Folsom Lake. These were pictures from back in May right before summer began and gets to crazy here at the lake. I love days like this when it's just the little family hanging out ;)




























We found a water spider. We kept throwing it back out into the water and watched it crawl back to us ;)

Deveon is Baptized

Deveon's Baptism

June 4th 2011




We had my parents, Josh's parents, Uncle Jesse and some friends from our ward come be a part of Deveon's baptism. Uncle Jesse gave the Holy Ghost Talk and Deveon's Sunday School teacher Sister Hutchings gave the talk on Baptism.


Our kids sang 'When I am Baptized' while Deveon changed after he was baptized. Here are all the kids waiting for Deveon to get dunked ;)




Deveon listening to our Bishop welcome him into our ward as a member of the church.











Dalen and Deveon with Uncle Jesse ;)
