This and That #2

Grandpa Larry took Alec, Matthew and Tim fishing a few weeks ago. It's always a great time to go fishing with Grandpa and the boys love it! Especially the snacks...nippy cheese, sweet pickles, green olives and a nice salty cracker. A breakfast for champions!
G'pa with Alec and Matt

There were some Salmon spawning that the
boys watched - they thought it was cool!

Riding in the fishing boat! I like your pink life
jacket Matthew!

Timmy giving us his best smile! Ya goof ball!

Grandpa Larry waiting to catch "The Big One"
or have his pole pulled in by it - which did happen!

My boys...

Sitting around the camp fire - it doesn't get
any better than this!

Beautiful Country...

Catching craw fish - yum!
*********************************************
This year Alec played flag football for the first
time. He had a great coach, learned a lot and
also had tons of fun. They took 2nd place overall
after the other team scored with 12 seconds left in
the championship game! It was a painful loss
but still a good experience!

Alec sweating after running during the game!

Good Play!


Huddle...

A little blurry, but shows Alec's strength - he
is a big kid and the tallest on his team!

Clipping on their flags.

Grandpa & Grandma Vest watching the game.
*******************************************
Alec earning his Bear award in Cub Scouts!
He has been working on this for almost a year
and finally got it accomplished - we are so proud
of him!

At Pack Night - Tim is the Cub Master and was
able to present him with his award. Good Job!
*******************************************
These are some random pictures that I thought were cute - Courtney loves to mess around with her camera and I thought I would post some of these cute pictures!

Courtney and Matthew -

How lucky can you get? Matt doesn't
give these out easily! I hope it stays
that way!

My Pretty Girl...
******************************************************
Next is...The Dew Tour! Alec has begged and begged to go to the Dew Tour for a couple of years now, so Tim took the boys and spent the day in SLC seeing all the sights. The boys are still talking about the great day they spent with dad. For those of you not familiar with the "Dew Tour" it's a big skateboarding, BMX bike competition. Total testosterone!

Inside Energy Solutions Arena watching the
skaters warm up.

Monster Trucks...

Autographs with skaters who hope to be the
next Ryan Scheckler!

Rides on dirt bikes...this was the highlight! I
think Alec was about to burst he loved it so
much! He wants a bike so badly!

Even Matt got to ride!

I think this is Matthew trying to ride alone -
he later crashed and had to have a little help as
you can see in the next photo.


Getting some instructions!
****************************************
Next random picture is my new very short haircut...


**********************************************

And last of all...Tim building the club house this
summer. It's a work in progress and the boys have
really enjoyed working on it with Tim all summer.
I think they will still be working on it next year too!

Shingling...

You can't see it, but the club house is raised 6
feet in the air on posts. The kids have to climb
a ladder to get up into it. They love it!

I love it when you update you blog and We can see the family events. Courtney is so beautiful, like her mom. The boys are growing up and Tim looks happy. Give them all a hug for me, tell them I love them tons. C....

I wish Jaden and Jason could have gone fishing with the guys. They would have loved that. I love your new hair cut! It is so cute. So the pictures of Alec playing football make me smile. I remember many years ago hearing you say that your boys would never play football. I am glad that you let him play! He is so big that I am sure he is a great player.

I also enjoy your updates on the family. It seems like they are growing up so fast..probably because I don't get to see them to often. I was so neat to spend time with Tim and the boy when they came down last spring and we went out to the cave. You have a beautiful family. And I do like you new do

Oh my sister, I love the fall motif surrounding your beautiful family. Fun memories your kids are making with fishing, sports, etc. It makes me a little sad that I am past that with my own children.
