Howes family reunion

We had our reunion today, and it was a lot of fun. I love spending time with my Aunts and Uncles, they are all very dear to me. I love seeing my cousins and all of their little children. Jamie and her family came out from Oklahoma to be here. It's great seeing her! Our family has really grown. I missed all of the ones who weren't able to make it, but hopefully they will be there next time. Swade left with Tim and his family right from the reunion to go to Flaming Gorge for the week. I hope he is safe and has a blast.

Wyatt's vacation...

Here are some more great moments of the vacation. It's great that my mom and dad can take one of the kids somewhere every year.

Wyatt's vacation

Wyatt had a good time on his recent vacation to San Diego with my Mom and Dad. They saw Old town, Sea World,

The Sand Diego Zoo, and of course, Wyatt's favorite was the beaches. Here are some highlights!

More canyon adventures...

As you can tell, we love to do the 4-wheelin' thing...Ty got a new dirt bike for Christmas and has had a lot of fun on it this summer.  We spend a lot of time watchin' the deer and just working too while we are up there...well, except for Swade, who spends most of his time being bored because there is no place to skateboard!  Baylie and Wyatt's favorite is looking for lizards!

Canyon Adventures...

We have property in Indianola - Oaker Hills.  We spend many, many weekends together up there, and the kids really love it.  Justin has worked really hard to make it a wonderful place for our family.  See pictures of our new pets (the deer we feed, and the blue birds that hang out in Ty's birdhouse).  

Hanging around the pool...

We spend a lot of time in our backyard swimming in our pool.  It may not be seven peaks, but it will do!  The trampoline is right next to it, so the kids have their own special version of a diving board.
