A little catch up. . .

Like my sister Katie, I am slacking in the blogging department. I apologize to you all and to make it up to you, here is a little update. :)

So about two weeks ago our basement was flooded. :( Jeff and I woke up around 5am to our windowsill letting in a steady stream of water that had quickly soaked our bedroom floor. We hurriedly grabbed some towls and laid them out along the window seal, then maneuvered them so that all the water would go down one and into a bucket. We then checked all of the other rooms. They had minimal leaking, our bedroom got the worst of it. Our bedroom floor is finally dry and the smell has left. Jeff tore up the carpet along the wall and we were very happy to see that there was hardly any mold and that only in the padding.Which surprised me because the smell was awful! :P We hope to have our bedroom back soon, but in the meantime, we are camping out in the family room. Which is actually quite fun. :)

I can't find the camera with all the flood pictures on it, but I thought this comic was rather funny and that I'd share it. :) 

We also took off in the mountains with our good friends Jake and Rachel. As all of you know, Utah has been having some rotten weather lately, so we took advantage of the first nice weekend we've had for a while.

The gang.

I love this man! :) 

Jeff had a lot of fun throwing rocks at bears (aka Trees) and seeing how far he could through large ones across the river. I love how he turns into a little boy everytime we get outdoors. :)

Last, but definitely not least, was our fabulous trip to St. George for memorial weekend. The Steadmans, Katie and Brandon were also there and we all had a fabulous time hanging out at the river, playing ultimate frisbee and steal the flag in the sanddoons.

The dam the dam crew. 

Daddy had a lot of fun watching the kids build and destroy their cities.  

So he and Jim joined in. :) 

Madre and Jodie!

Jim and dad got REALLY into the game! haha 

We bought a skim board! Jeff had so much fun on it and was getting really good at riding it. :) 

Trying to get Isaac surfing on the skim board. 

Next up, Dax. Sadly, it seems that skim boards simply were not made to be surfed on. :P haha
