Camping with Bleak's

 In August we rented two camping spots next to each other up at Timpooneke Campground in AF canyon. One was a double site and one a single. Bryan and Jennies' family came and so did Grandma and Grandpa Bleak. I can't ever get enough of the outdoors. They always have been and always will be my favorite memories! 

Cade and I went up Thursday evening and got everything set up. Everyone else slept there Thursday night but we didn't know if we could stay up there with Jane for two nights. So early Friday morning we packed the girls up and went to Tibble Fork Reservoir and met up with everyone. We had some kayaks and paddle boards that were a blast. 

Then we went back to the campsite for lunch. The campsites were huge and so great for a big group! Nathan and Steph even joined us in the evening for dinner and slept over Friday night. Timpooneke Campground is my favorite. I hope to go every summer as long as we live here!

Gma & Gpa Sleepover and Adult Date Night

 Grandma and Grandpa Bleak sleepover....a night they look forward to and count down the days for weeks!!! This year it was held on July 31st, Harry Potter's birthday, and so naturally they had a birthday party for him! The girls all got their Halloween Costumes early this year so they could wear them to it. Emma was Hermione, Reese was Hedwig, and Nora the snitch. They had so much fun play games, eating sorting hat cupcakes, watched Harry Potter, and went swimming on Saturday. 

While the kids were away, the adults got to play! We went to Nathan and Steph's house for take-out and a paint night. We had so much fun!

A Different Anniversary

 We celebrated our 13th anniversary this year! And most things were closed because of Covid-19 and that meant the temples were all closed which was such a bummer!!! But we had a great time anyway! 

We went to Sundance and stayed in a lodge there. We ate at the Treehouse and it was delicious! We went on a fun lift ride and walked around the beautiful resort. This was pretty much a repeat of anniversary 10 but we love Sundance so much it was so fun again!

Picture from our honeymoon. We are babies... :)

Pontoon Boat at Deer Creek

 Since Sisten and Andrew wouldn't be able to come to Bear Lake this year they mentioned how fun it would be to rent a pontoon boat at Deer Creek. So their family, our family and Nathan and Steph all rented and we had a BLAST!!! The weather was amazing and the kids had the BEST time. It was a double decker, so the kids could jump off the top into the water or go down the slide. It was so much fun!

Gma Close Comes to Visit!

We had the best time having Grandma Close come visit this summer! It was in July and we were able to make crafts, play games, and our favorite GO CAMPING with her! Well, Me, Grandma and Jane went home to sleep but we still had a great time in the outdoors! We love when she comes to visit and missed seeing Grandpa this time around!

 

Zoo for the 4th of July

 We had a great time at the zoo even with wearing masks the whole time and me being paranoid with Lucy touching and pretty much licking everything around her :). It was still fun to get out and go somewhere as a family!
