Cabin trip.

Cole had a couple days off, so we headed up to the cabin. We has such a great time. The weather was perfect, even rained a little. Rain on the mountain smells AWESOME!!
Good Friends

Walt's Flat

Dawsyn loves to blow sunflowers.

Just a little tired!

Good look'n dog, NEO!


We really had to work for this picture. Neo bolted right before the picture took, he was supposed to be at my feet. So that is what Daws is pointing at! Silly dog!

Powell Point and Pine Lake trip.

Last year when Cole went on this trip, I was so jealous. This year I jumped at the chance when Cole said that I needed to go. We borrowed a Polaris Ranger, strapped Dawsyn's car seat in the center and off we went. I think a Polaris Ranger is now at the top of my wish list!
Great company and beautiful scenery.

Dawsyn, Brandon and Nelson

Just look how pretty!

Dawsyn hiding from the helmets. She hates helmets and would cling to me or hide from whoever had one or even got close to one. Apparently, if she couldn't see it, it wasn't there!

Nelson and the horny toad.

Grandma Gin teasing Brandon.

I think he was thinking of all the insurance money he could collect!


Dawsyn and her walking stick on the way to Powell Point.

Kimala, Cole, Dawsyn, Brandon, Grandma Gin, Grandpa Paul, Travis, Christy.
(Nelson was climbing trees, there were plenty or cool trees to climb on)

Rolling rocks.

Lake Powell

Seriously, I never knew that I would enjoy going to the lake as much as I do. Thanks again Ken and Paula for sharing your adventures with us.

If you know Cole, you know that he doesn't relax very often.
Well, at the lake he does!!
Dawsyn in the "RELAXATION STATION" playing with her shells and bucket. I bet she was in there for a good hour.

The beach.
Thanks Ken and Houston for all your hard work. It was really nice.
Especially with out the rattlesnake!

Kenya and Dawsyn

Cole jumped off the cliff and Dawsyn just had to go in too.

Timber finding some shade!

Have'n fun in the Relaxation Station again!
Toryn, Kenya and Dawsyn.

Kimala and Dawsyn.
Can't get that little girl out of the water.

Cliff Jumping
These guys are a little nuts!!
I couldn't believe how brave Houston and Kenya were. It didn't even phase them.
Ken showing us how it is done.

Even Toryn got in on the action.

Crazy June!!

Our June was crazy. It consisted of three trips home (Koosharem), our first trip to Lake Powell, family visiting and all the other things life brings. It was a good month though and prepared us for an even more busy July.
Here are the highlights.
Found out that Dawsyn is NOT one bit scared of the water.

Houston, Dawsyn and Kenya
Houston and Kenya were so good to help entertain Daws. We love our COUSINS!!


Cole and Dawsyn thinking, "This boat is AWESOME!"

Kenya and Dawsyn
We had a blast with Ken and Paula and their family. I was a little nervous about being at the lake, but after a day there, I was sold and can't wait to go back. Paula even got me to jump of a cliff. Not much of a cliff, but HUGE CLIFF to me!

Dawsyn is obsessed with my rodes. When she sees me in one, she runs to get one for herself.

I just thought this was a cute picture.
(Mia, Dawsyn and Addi)
My little organizer. She did this all on her own.
Cousins again.
Really, Dawsyn loves her cousins. I am pretty sure they love her too.
Thanks Whit and Madi for always helping entertain.
My little girl is not so little anymore. I can't believe how fast she has grown.
She sure makes us smile!
Some of her favorite sayings:
Amma's at Ebbie's house?
Addi's at Dinkie's(Meggie's) house?
Ten, Paw (Ken, Paula) at the ake?
Daddy's at errk(work) a Neo.
Neo bah(ball) in tunk(trunk).
Ride Pappa T's heffer (four-wheeler).
