Happy 4th!


There were lots of yellow and blue flowers up the canyon. We didn't take the time to photograph any of the blue ones, but this shot gives you an idea of how many yellow flowers were out.

The plants in front of our house decided to bloom last night. So we took some photos.


It is really hard to get Ali and Vi to look at the camera at the same time. I have a dozen shots where Vi is looking and Ali is pulling hair out of her face, reaching for Morgan, closing her eyes, talking, or doing something. Vi usually says "cheese" and looks in the wrong direction.

A kind person offered to take a picture of all of us, recording for posterity that I was on this trip.

Left the house at about 11:00 a.m. to find lunch. I indulged at In-N-Out, the girls had chicken nuggets, apples, and milk from McDonald's. Ali had a large diet coke and some of my french fries. Then we took off into the mountains, around behind Ogden. Drove up to Snowbasin and then down past a reservoir on Wolf Creek. I think it is just called Wolf Creek Reservoir. Is that where y'all went boating the day Dad and I went to the BYU vs. Washington football game? If we haven't tried it, it looked like a great place to water ski. A good size, kind of protected by mountains, and in a pretty area. It is less than an hour from my place, probably only 30 minutes from Trent's. We saw a waterfall on the way back and stopped and took a few pictures.

Morgan looks so grownup; Willey looks like she just did the thing you told her not to do, and is daring you to respond.
