Random Weekend

Last weekend was a little random. My brother Greg and his wife Megan invited us to go water skiing last Friday night. Just Kelli and I went with their family. It was so much fun. I sat in the raft with Kelli and her cousin Katelyn. Kelli was a little scared, so I sat her on my lap. You can barely see Katelyn's head sticking out above the raft.


Here is a picture of Kelli and Katelyn. They are such cute girls.


After a while of playing on the raft and jumping in the water a thousand times, Greg asked me if I would like to water ski. I said, "sure!" I couldn't pass up something like that.



Thanks so much Greg and Megan. That was such a blast. Kelli and I had a great time.

That Friday night, when Kelli and I got home, we got a call from my brother Wade. He invited us down to help out with his sprinkler system the next day. We thought it would be a great idea to head down to Gunnison and help out with the sprinkler system and then do some fishing after wards. So the next morning, after I taught my yoga class, we headed down to Gunnison. Chris did the hard part, working with my dad and brothers on the sprinkler system, while I hung out with my mom and visited my Grandma and cousins. Hey, I offered to help, but my dad told me no. After several hours, my dad and Chris quit working on the sprinklers and I headed up with them in the mountains. My mom was very kind to watch Kelli for me.

I just love fishing in the mountains where I grew up. It is so relaxing up there. We brought our fly rods and fished a little beaver pong. Here are a few pictures of our little adventure. We caught lots of fish. It was so much fun.

Pretty scenery.

After we were done fishing, we decided to put up Chris' trail cam. He recently bought it and we thought we would try it out. With just a little bit of sun light left, we hiked up a hill and found a spot where we felt lots of animals came through and we set it up. In a few weeks, we will check it out and see if the trail cam got any pictures of deer or other wildlife.

  1. Thanks for the Birthday wish! I did have a good birthday! Jared gave me a huge tackle box for my birthday since we don't have one. Now I just have to fill it with all the good stuff I need for a successful fishing trip! :) Speaking of fishing trips, I'm glad you got to have a fun fishing trip in Gunnison. I'm sure you went to one of the many "secret" ponds! ;)
    I'm going to Gunnison tomorrow for Labor day weekend. If you get a chance to go there as well, let me know. It would be great to see ya! Oh, and I totally remember when you and Sandz braided my hair in tons of braids for cheer camp and we put nail polish at the ends! Not a good idea! I had to CUT the nail polish out but hey it was a fun memory right?! :)

  4. Can you believe that the very first time I went to Fish Lake was last month! Crazy huh! I totally wish we lived closer cause then I would for sure stay with you while the men are hunting! I am planning on going to Salt Lake on October 10th for Kade and Kodie's combined birthday party. If you are free that day, then you should come! :)
