Kaden's Big Fish

We found the perfect little pond in St George to take Kaden fishing. I should have figured that fishing is enough excitement for a little boy, note to self, don't let him get whatever drink he wants at the Gas Station. Mountain Dew doesn't mixed well with such an excited little boy. I swear he should have fallen in the pond about 5x before we finished but he is talented at jumping and not falling in I guess. Not falling in the pond wasn't his only talent though. Kaden caught is first fish!! And it has HUGH! haha That's what he will tell you. It was so big it was the size of Kyle's hand... Overall it was a really fun day. Although I felt bad for missing the girls dancing, I'm glad I got to be with the boys to experience Kaden's growing love for fishing. I should have guessed he would love it with Kyle as his teacher. Kyle can't stop thinking about fishing. I can't blame him though. I think its pretty fun too.

Kaden's first fish
Waiting for the bite. I got to work on my tan and hold the pull until w got a bite and then he would run over and reel it in with help from Kyle. It was a pretty good system.
My handsome guy!

Better Late then Never

I know this vacation was about a month ago but sometimes things just get a little crazy. Especially when you have a husband that can NEVER sit still. We are always on the move but I like it that way. We love Mesquite and have managed to make a trip down there about once a month this year so sorry for the picture overload from all our trips down there. Things should be slowing down for a couple months (at least from visiting Mesquite) because of the heat but who really knows.
We found a fun park to explore on top of the white Dixie in St George. It has a beautiful view. I know its hard to see but the Saint George Temple is in the back ground.
Me, Jenae, and Mom.
We did a lot of exploring this trip and found some really fun places to visit. We are at a water park in St George in this picture.
Outside Brigham Young's Winter House is this tree that was stuck by lightening. They performed a little surgery and it is good to go for many more years now! It was a really fun place to visit. I suggest you see it as least once if you are in the area. In the picture is: Mom, Kaden, Kyle, Me, Jacee, and Jenae. It was really fun to go down there with them!
Kyle playing Paddle Ball at a park near Jared and Val's new home. We sure miss them but it is really fun to take a weekend and go visit them. I think that Paddle Ball is my new found favorite activity. I wish that we had a court up North. :(
Mandi's favorite part of the park. She is the Swing Master!
