Camping

We had a great start to our long Labor Day weekend by going camping. We stayed at a private campground up Hobble Creek Canyon near Springville, UT. The campground is owned by the grandparents of Nelson and Julie Radmall, friends from our ward. We invited a bunch of couples from our ward to go in addition to Melissa and Joshua who didn't arrive until 12:30pm, but Jeff and I had a nice time staying up talking and waiting to make sure they got there safe.

Everyone having fun trying to run/walk while lifting the right arm with the right leg and left arm with the left leg. It is very hard to do, takes lots of concentration and is oh so funny to watch.

Saturday evening we enjoyed homemade sandwiches, the movie Hancock and then some ice cream.

It sounds like you had an awesome Labor Day weekend! It's great that you take advantage of the beautiful mountains and camping activities so available there. Thank you for being thoughtful to include Melissa, Joshua, and Max's family in many of your activities. . .

We watched base jumpers for over half an hour on Sunday evening just before sunset at the Perrine Bridge with Vern's family. We walked across the bridge with their three teenagers (Bronwyn, Collin, and Alex) and the guys even did some bouldering up the cliff under the bridge on the Jerome side! Quentin gave a good talk and wonderful testimony on Sunday.

Have a fantastic week! We'll see you soon. . .

Love always,
Mamacita and Boys

Hey guys!! I feel like it's been so long since I've seen you guys. Congrats on graduating from Dental Hygiene school! You should work with Thayne someday so that we can hang out again. Okay, I know that probably won't happen but it would be fun! :)
