Canyon Lake Trip

The first two weeks of May Jared had a break from school. We kept ourselves so busy doing a lot of fun things the entire two weeks! We went to my brother's graduation, to Havasupai, to a few HopeKids events (Kung Fu Panda 2 movie, Jumpstreet, and the youth broadway musical Annie), had friends over for swimming and dinner, and went to Canyon lake with my family. Oh, and we even snuck in a date (dinner and games with friends) together and a trip to the temple one morning! Whew! We were busy.

Here's a few pictures of Jason's graduation. Way to go Mr. Salutatorian!!!


Our trip to the lake was super fun. We all split the cost of renting 2 jet skies for the day. Jared also spent most the day fishing. We were getting a good laugh about how much fun he was having. He mostly just caught little fish but he was ecstatic for every single one of them! Every few minutes I'd hear, "Andrea, grab your camera! which meant he wanted a picture of another fish:)

Here's the big catfish he caught...

Our boys were really excited when Jared would catch a fish. Caleb only wanted to be excited from a distance. We finally got him to touch a fish when we put it in a frisbee and it stopped squirming.

Ha, and then we asked Kyson if he wanted to see the fish. He comes running out and just reaches down and grabs it.




For lunch we had a very yummy watermelon. As you can see Caleb enjoyed it very much!


Of course we all had a great time riding the jet skies!



After two weeks of fun filled times together as a family Jared is now back in school. I am grateful to finally be settling into more a routine. Our lives have been so hectic since the beginning of April and I'm grateful for relaxing days at home with my two boys, spending time together. We go swimming a lot, but they both love it so I don't mind! We have a few fun family events coming up on the 4th of July weekend and the next weekend that we are all looking forward to.
