It's a Girl!!!

Ha ha...its just a Girl Dog!! We got a new dog a few weeks ago. She is a Siberian Husky that is 5 years old and her name is Jasmine. We fell in love with her on the internet and were able to adopt her.

She has escaped a few times but has found her way home. Excellent with kids! The boys love love her but she went into heat a week or so ago and has really tested us. We are having her spayed today to see if that takes care of the problem.

Hey its at least another girl in the fam?

Friend Campout

This past weekend we went camping with friends up to the Tophams cabin. We had such blast. 5 couples and 17 kids between all of us.

We had great food and roasted mallows around the fire.

The boys took the older kids fishing at Yankee Meadows

We had so much fun hanging out and playing games...even if the girls didn't win...there's always next time!!!

Its so crazy that the kids are getting old enough to just go play their own games. I LOVE IT!!

The traditional group photo in front of the cabin. Thanks everybody for the memories

Cruisin the Carribean 2011



The first week of June we went on an amazing cruise adventure with our friends, Chad and Meladie and Rick and Amber. This is us at the airport getting ready to catch our red eye flight from Salt Lake to New York and from New York to Florida.


We went on the Carnival Liberty and left from MIAMI. After 2 long flights and lost carry on luggage for the Winters we were on our way.



Sunset on the deck.

Meladie, me and Amber at the comedy show. They had the funniest comedians. We laughed so hard.

We played cards a few times.



Formal night #2. It was so fun to get dressed up for dinner.


Our first stop was in Cozumel Mexico. This is were Chad and Meladie caught up with their carry on luggage.



The boys got dressed up... ha ha- Three Amigos







We went snorkeling there and the water was so amazing and clear. The fish were so awesome.

Cory found a Pepsi truck there and had to get a picture with it.


Our next stop was the Cayman Islands. It was beautiful there and so clean.



We rode a boat out to a sand bar and played with sting-rays. They were so big. The sting-rays would just swim up to us and we fed them and took pictures with them.


Cory and Chad petting a stingray



This guy dove down and brought up a star fish and some conk shells from the ocean floor. The water was like an aqua color and so warm.


Our last stop was Jamacia. It was so cool getting off the ship there. Everything was green and fresh.

We drove up a crazy scary narrow road through the city to the top of a mountain to zipline.





This is me on the first zip line

Cory headed down on the "Leap of Faith" zip line.



We went on 4 different ziplines. One was 1200 ft across the jungle. There was a swing that was so much fun too.


After the zipline we were taken to the Dunn's falls and hiked up them.

Pictures just don't do it justice.

The whole trip was so amazing! The weather, food, entertainment and company was the Best!!!

The last night at dinner we took a picture with our awesome waiter Richard.

Thanks guys for the memories and adventures!!! And thanks to our parents and families that helped watch our kids---we love you!

April/May 2011

For Easter we went to Oak City and had a easter egg hunt with the Rogers side of the family. The weather wasn't great but that didn't stop us from having a great time!

That afternoon we went to the sand hills below Oak City and let the kids play and we rode 4 wheelers around. I took some fun pictures of people jumping off the edge of the dunes.
