Today we took a trip down/up to Pike’s Peak! It’s not a very long drive from here, and you can drive all the way to the top. 🙂 Our 2nd 14er in the bag! 🙂 The view up there was really pretty and it was a great day for it! We didn’t think it was […]
EFY ended today and the girls were really bummed! They made a TON of new friends and absolutely loved the program! At first, they weren’t sure that they would (not being able to stay on a campus and all that goes with that), but they were proven wrong big time! Kirstyn can’t wait to do

Today was reunion day! We spent most of the day on the beach, hanging out and having a great time! Brittany overcame her fear of the ocean, and it was hard to get her out! We went body boarding, tried surfing, and buried a bunch of the little people. Brian brought in a caterer for

Today we got up early and I took Zach to the beach to do a little body boarding. He had a riot! It was hard to get him out of the water to get moving with our daily activities… LA Temple and Hollywood. Once I got him out and dried off, we piled in the
