Once again, more pictures!

Once again, it's been a long time since I have blogged.  I guess that is what happens in the summer for me!
Here is me with my cute friend, Taco.  She was my camper when I was a counselor at Brighton Girls Camp several years ago.  She was a counselor up there this past summer and did a great job!
Yahoo for Breakfast at Chicks!!  These are my Heber breakfast pals!  Once again, we missed you Heather and Nicky!!
This is my cute family up in American Fork canyon where we went camping for the weekend.
Here is Hannah, she loved the water jug.
So, this is a typical picture of Hannah during the day.  The first thing she does after breakfast and getting dressed is "read" through her books.  It is super cute!
Keven and I got the opportunity to go backpacking with the Scouts in our ward this past weekend.  I have never hiked Mt. Timp before and let me tell you it was a good workout!  Here is Keven and I at the top in the shack we slept in.
This is a view of the mountainside.
Here is Keven and I with our packs on the way down.  And I must say that I have done a good deal of hiking in my day but my calfs have never been as sore as they are from this backpacking trip!
