Camping and Seattle

We decided that we wanted to save up all our vacations and not do them throughout the summer but every weekend starting in August. We went camping one weekend with my family at the Spruces. It was fun on the way down from the Mountain we saw a mountain goat. It was awesome!!

Wade and I have always said we wanted to see one and we finally did. It was really pretty.

On Labor Day weekend we went camping at the Spruces again with Wade's family. Weston loves his cousins!! He gets a huge smile when he sees them and gets so excited!!

WE hiked up to Twin Lakes one of the days and it was really pretty. I have never been up there.

SEATTLE! We went to Seattle to go to my niece's baptism. It was a fun trip. We went to the Aquarium.

Here we are at Pike's Market.

Weston is such a cheese. Whenever I bring the camera out he gets huge smile on his face. It is so cute.

My two boys.

Here we are at the locks and the fish ladder. It was really cool. We watched them lower and raise boats to go through the dam. We went to the fish ladder for the salmon to get over the dam but there weren't any salmon jumping them. They were jumping out of the water everywhere but not the ladder.

We walked to the Sea Hawks stadium. It is humongous!! It would have been fun to go to a game. Then we went on the Underground Tour of Seattle. Other things we did was we went to Wicked!! I love that Show!!! Maelyn got baptized and we had a picnic at the park. We went out and picked blackberries that grow everywhere. It was so much fun!! It was fun to visit with Ryan, Kendra, and the kids.

We went to the Zoo last Wednesday and it was so much fun. The baby elephant was so stinking cute!! Weston had fun with his cousins and he loved the animals.

Now I am up to date on the blog and hopefully I will start keeping it that way. I will try hard.

Time for an Update

I know it has been along time since I have blogged. It just makes it much more exciting to read I think. :) This is what has happened in the last couple of months. Sorry it will be a little long, but mostly pictures.

Here is Weston doing his signature move the SUPERMAN!! He is so funny he would stick his legs straight out and then his arms were straight to his side and he would fly. He doesn't do it much anymore.

My two boys!! I Love them to Pieces!!

YEAH for the 4th of July! We went to the West Jordan Parade then family BBQ's all day then the Rodeo!! Here is Weston and Wade at the Rodeo. Weston discovered his tongue and was sticking it out all night. It was so funny.

We went to a Wright Family Reunion in July. It was so much fun!! We went to Pineview Res. and had fun playing in the sand and water! I got to go wake boarding which I haven't done forever!! Don't worry I didn't forget how to do it. Eli and I buried Wade's legs in the sand. It was a really fun trip!!

We then had an episode where Weston decided to turn stark white and lips bright blue and scared me half to death. We called 911 and they came but of course he was coming out of it when they showed up and I called our pediatrician and she wanted us to go get an EKG at Primary Children's the next day. Weston did really good and he hasn't done it since. The EKG was normal so we have no clue what he did. He just wanted to scare me.

In August Wade made me go to the Dr for my knee. In the beginning of July I did something to it running, and ever since I hadn't been able to walk up and down stairs get up and down from the floor, pretty much do anything. I thought that it would just get better, but after a month I gave in and went to the Dr. I had XRAYS and a MRI and I had a tear in my meniscus. The Dr told me I could wait it out and see if it gets better on its own, or they could go in and shave away the tear. I decided to go with the surgery. I am so glad I did!! It felt so much better even after surgery. I could walk on it after and even though it hurt from surgery the pain wasn't there. It is 100 times better then it was now but the bummer is is that the Dr told me I shouldn't be a runner. I could be a swimmer or a biker but not a runner.
