great views

I love Utah!! I love this beautiful place that I am so lucky to call home. I took these pictures a couple diferent evenings.

Rascal Flats concert Feb 09

I know this was awhile ago, but Deb and I got free tickets with really great seats to go to the Rascal Flats concert. (Thanks for the hook-up honey.) Neither one of us is a real fan, but we just had to see if Jessica Simpson was really fat. She was opening for them. And she's not. Needless to say we had tons of fun.

Bear Lake 2009

We went with Jeff, Renee, and their friends to their cabin in Bear Lake in February. We drove to the top of Monte and rode our snowmobiles to the cabin. It took about 4 hours, but that is because we couldn't resist stopping to play. Luckily we arrived safely with only some minor set backs, like losing keys, sunglasses, and a cell phone (Mike). Not to mention Jeff's near death avalanche. Just kidding. It wasn't too serious, but serious enough to get hurt. We did learn over the weekend that Jeff has 9 lives. We think he's on about 7, so good luck Jeff.
When we arrived we shared stories and had some great hamburgers. We played some games and everyone found out just how smart I (Robin) really am (Thomas Jefferson).
Jeff made a kickin' breakfast Saturday, so after we gorged ourselves we rode around the sinks. What a fun place to ride and play. The snow conditions were perfect and with the great company it made for an excellent day. After another night of fun at the cabin we rode back to our cars left on Monte. Derrick's snowmobile broke down just as we got back. Crappy, but at least he was only towed a mile or so. Thanks for the lift Mike.
Thank you Jeff and Renee for the invite and hospitality. We regret not taking you up on the invite the last couple years. Everyone was so great and fun to be around. It was nice meeting you, Mark, Leslie, Mike, Stacy, Kim, and Karen. Next year Derrick and i get dibs on the second shower!! LOL!

A day in the snow!

A great day snowmobiling at Franklin Basin with 3ft of
fresh powder. Derrick took the day off work to enjoy his
favorite sport with some friends. He is an amazing rider
and makes it look so easy.
Not to mention the fact that he looks so hot in his
snowmobile gear.

Taking the boys snowmobiling.

It is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas!

What a joy to share Christmas with people we love. We woke
Christmas morning to have Santa spoil the kids rotten.
It was so fun to see the excitement on Megan and Cage's
face when they walked down stairs. I want to remember
and cherish every moment of Christmas while the kids are young.
I seems like the spirit of Christmas changes when kids get older.
It was a wonderful day and nothings better than a white Christmas.

In heaven!!

Grandpa and Grandma Roundy got Meg a jeep.

Ridiculous I know!

Family portraits by Deb

My dear, sweet, lovely, great friend Deb saved us from
having to pay a fortune for our family Christmas
picture. I asked her if she would grab her wammy-jammy
high tech, million dollar camera and give it a shot.
They turned out great!! Thanks Deb, we love ya.

Ginger Bread Time

We made a Ginger Bread House .......


and Megan wanted to stick it up her shirt.

Cage was happy of a job well done. Notice his
missing two front teeth. That's all he wants
for Christmas!

Guess Who Is Potty Training....

Megan is so funny in her Elmo panties. She reminds me that
she can't pee on Elmo. She is getting so big!!

Lagoon Trail

I took Cage, Megan, Carson, and Cole to the Lagoon Trail. We
had a ball picking up apples for the horses and watching all
the animals. I couldn't believe all the leaves. It was obviously
fall. We had a couple leave fights and I lost. I got thrown to
the ground and tackled by all the kids. I really thought I
could take them. Boy, was I wrong. I got to finish the walk
with leaves in my hair, down my shirt, and everywhere else
that would be uncomfortable.

I wish this picture was more clear. It was so
pretty to see all the leaves. We loved the sound
of crunching leaves under our shoes.

Cole, Cage, and Carson playing with the horses.

Megan, Carson, Cole, and Cage!!
