Jaidyn decided she liked Meghans little cubby.

Jaidyn walked Griz at least twice a day.

Lots of fishing took place.

On the way to Mackay we saw one of Barrys rodeo contractors. He was moving his bucking horses from one field to the next.

Campground by the Lake

The day after the kids finished their school year we went camping for a long weekend in Tahoe. We had a great time. We camped at Campground by the Lake. Which was right across the street from the lake. We spent one day relaxing and walking to the beach to play. The next day we went on the Taylor Creek Trail to see the Underground Stream Profile Chamber. This is where they have cut out a part of the river and put glass so you can see the fish in the stream. We want to go back when the salmon are spawning so we can see them. The kids really enjoyed this. Then we went to a stocked fishing pond called Sawmill Pond. Anyone 16 and under can fish free. The kids all caught some nice fish that we took to camp to enjoy. They had so much fun, they got up the next morning and went for a couple more hours. We had a great family weekend together.

Jaidyn loved her walks with Griz

State Baseball Tourny for Logan

Logans Baseball team the Dayton Dustdevils made it to state this year. They ended up taking 4th place. They played an almost error free game. This was great experience. They only had one senior on their team, so we expect great things next year. :)

Cancun Days 4-8 (Finally)

Day 4-Zip Line- We went to a Zip Line Ecological Park, we rode from platform to platform, what a blast. We went to the Beach Palace for dinner at the Outdoor Steakhouse, YUM- best Ahi I have eaten.

Safety First!

Day 5- Cozumel, Playa, snorkling, pool volleyball, beautiful oceans, great food entertaining cab rides. We took a taxi to Playa, had breakfast at the Palace Resort there, took the ferry over to Cozumel, walked through town to get to the Cozumel Palace Resort and spent the day in Cozumel. We had a blast. Nancy and Trent help pull me out of my comfort zone, but I always have a great time.

After the Broadway Show- Goofing off

Beach at Cozumel - the water was beautiful

Snorkling- so Beautiful

This is Castro. He was our cab driver- he drove us from the Palace Resort in Playa back to the Moon Palace. He could speak little English, Nancy LOVES to talk to everyone everywhere we go. So about 10 minutes into the ride, Nancy starts tapping on his shoulder saying "Fidel, Fidel." He turns around with an odd look on his face and I lean over and tell Nancy his name is Castro- He said- oh, Fidel Castro muy mal. We all got a good laugh, luckily Castro was a good sport about it.

Day 6- Isle Mujeres, boat rides, dolphins, laying by the pool, resort to ourselves, more great food, cheesecake, Brazillian restaurant

Boat ride over to Isle Mujeres (Very Entertaining)

No- We did not fit into that car! When the taxi showed up I said "We asked for a car for 4??? "

We spent the day on Isle Mujeres. We took the boat ride over and then got a taxi to the Palace Resort located on Isle Mujeres. It was wonderful!!! We had a great relaxing day.

We were 4 of only 12 guests at the entire resort. You can say we were waited on hand and foot! They were begging to serve us.

Day 7- Riding Bikes, playing in the arcade, pool volleyball (Beach Palace), dinner at the Golf Course, Mayan Show.

Dance, dance

Before we left for the Beach Palace we played video games in the arcade (yep, kids at heart) then we rode bikes around.

Stealing our thunder

Weirdos

We spent the afternoon at the Beach Palace, this picture was taken from the top floor. They had a mirage pool and bar up there. We went down to the main pool and got a volleyball game going, by the 3rd game it was standing room only. Nancy and I bailed out and ate lunch.
