Fossil Springs Hike

I can't even remember the last time Becca and I did anything adventurous together.  This trip down Fossil Springs was well over due.  As soon as we were able to farm the kids off to the grandparents house off we went

 Starting out on top......



 Gorgeous I know........The view was nice too...

Its hard to believe all this water shoots out of the ground about a third of a mile back


This was as far around the ledge I was going to get Becca to go.  She was not going to budge.  She gently reminded me of our 3 kids and that only one of us could die and it wasn't going to be her.  Sigh..

Good times


This part was pretty cool.  They call it the toilet bowl.  There is a large hole that you can swim under to get out, or you can try and pull yourself up by the red rope.


Well worth the trip!

Hunters kindergarden play

Ah yes, who could forget those wonderful plays that you did in elementary school.  We were very excited for Hunters first play and so was he.  It seemed like only yesterday his old man was going to the very same school, Johnson Elementary.  Just seeing the stage brought back memories of the 5th grade God Bless the USA program where I managed to throw up my entire dinner while singing in the front row in front of all the parents.....Good times!

 Right off the bat the first thing we noticed was the AC was turned off.  It must have been 90 degrees in that gym.  This made Dad and Mason grumpy.


 I was amazed with all the costumes.  Frogs, rabbits, ducks, flowers etc.  Hunter was a penguin.


 Curse my camera and its lack of a good zoom.  That is him in the middle....


 Curse amateur photographers who still don't understand you have to push the camera button half way down to focus BEFORE you snap it all the way down!

By the time we got to Hunter he had already rubbed most of the black off his nose.  He was sure a happy penguin.

Its a litte grainy but Hunters little dance was hilarious.
