Our first camping trip!

We went camping for our first time since we have been married with our friends the Donaldson's.  We had such a great time! The food was amazing.... we ate SO much! We made lots of smore's, talked around the fire, played games, went on a hike, and had so much fun!  We loved it!

We have a few car troubles. Our jeep got overheated going up the mountains due to a cracked pipe.  Luckily Bryson had the parts to fix it! It pays to have a handy man around!!! So while we were waiting for the jeep to cool down, the boys decided to make the most of it and go on a little hike, while Sydney and I just sat on the side of the road in lawn chairs!

You can see Clay and Bryson on the top of that rock.

This is a close up of the same picture.

This is the view from our hike when we reached the top, it was beautiful!! So amazing!

Lookin good in the ASU hat!! I think he's converting...

Of course he had to bring these so he could "glass"





A horrible attempt at a picture of us together.


This squirrel was just chillin by us the whole time we were up there.  Wasn't scared at all!




Meet the Donaldson's!

We go rabid when we are in the mountains??
We had such a good time! Wish we would've been better about taking more pictures.  Thanks to the Donaldson's for such a great time. Even with the car troubles.  Their car broke down on the way home from the mountain.... and 5 hours later the tow truck finally arrived!!! Good times sitting on the side of the road!

HaPpY bIrThDaY my Love!

Happy Birthday Bryson!!
We made a fun weekend out of his birthday. We went to Vail to hangout with his family and his aunt Gena and had some tasty food and homemade ice cream!  He was pretty spoiled on the presents! He came out with $75 Red Lobster gift card, a homemade ice cream maker, $25 gift card to the movies, and about 5 of his favorite movies!! Thanks to everyone who made it a special day for him!

For his birthday dinner he chose Red Lobster (of course) and some friends came to join us. We had such a fun night and played some Farkle afterwards.
