Girls Camp

So Mariah turned 12 on June 10th and Girls Camp was on June 2-4. I received a calling as Girls Camp Assistant so Mariah and I were 1st years together! It was exciting! We went to PineVally, the weather was perfect the food was yummy and camping was a breeze! What ever happened to going to camp for a week? Sleeping in Tents and roughing it? We had the luxury of staying in a cabin, but 22 girls in a 1 bathroom cabin was roughing it. Although we didn't get to take showers, I was greatful for a bathroom! Here are some highlight pictures.

Crawdad catching!


We made a fruit bouquet! It was delicious!

Memorial Day Weekend

This year our family went to Kolob for some 4 wheeling fun up at the Cabin. Casey was helping on their uncles Ranch Gathering Cows so he wasn't with us, but me and the kids, Tyler and his family, Curtis and his family and Brent, Nancy and Ashlee and Grandma and Grandpa Blake went to the Cabin for the day.


The weather was nice, but the clouds started to roll in.

When the sun started to shine, we decided to go for a ride!

It was me and the boys,

Ashlee and Mariah,

Kylee and the the girls. (Dillon decided to get in the pic)

After Lunch, the kids shot their guns,

Then we went on another long ride and took more fun pics:



While we were in the middle of our ride, it suddenly got dark and cold!
Then it started to HAIL!

It was starting to get a little uncomfortable getting pelted in the face so we found some shelter. Not sure who owns this cabin, but thanks for letting us get out of the hail storm.
On Sunday we had a barbecue at Grandma and Grandpa Gublers

On Monday after we laid flowers on the graves, we went swimming at Rick and MaryAnns.

Give Me Liberty Award

This year Kylee worked hard and received a Give Me Libery Award and Certificate. This award is given to those students who completed 12 different areas of the Give Me Liberty Program. Just to name a few, she memorized the preamble, States and Capitals, Presidents, Had to write the Pledge of Allegiance without mistakes, recite the Declaration of Independance etc. We were so proud of her! Here are a few highlights:

Our Family Garden

This year we planted a big garden at Nancy's house and a small one at my house. We planted 400 onions, 4 eggplants, 78 tomatoe plants, 3 rows of potatoes, a row of peppers and jalapenos. At my house we planted squash, zuccini and Cucumbers! Here are pics from all our labor!

Mothers Day

This mothers day the kids surprised me with breakfast in bed and Casey surpised me with a beautiful boquet of roses! Kylee made me my favorite blueberry muffins with a glass of orange juice. I ate breakfast while watching my tivo episodes of Dancing With the Stars! I laid around for awhile before we had to get ready for church. Brent, Nancy, Ashlee, and Grma. and Grpa Blake joined us at church becuase Kylee had to give a mothers day talk. She did sooo well. Then we had dinner as always on Sunday at Nancy's house. After dinner, we all went out back for a game of baseball. Here are a few highlight pictures.

Somehow, Blake seems to always be on the ground at one point in a game!
