August recap

OK, All of the major high-lights of 2007 so far are represented... There are some things that happened that if I get really bored I might post like: Trey's first rabbit hunting trip, zoo trips, Taylor spinning doughnuts in the snow on the 4wheeler, Cherry Hill. I think we will just go forward from here.

Ang has committed to posting a monthly summary each month, with her typing skills much hampered because of her surgery I thought I would get her started:

Angie had carpel-tunnel surgery on her right wrist, she is doing well.
Trey, Tiff, and Taylor all started school. This is Trey's last year in Junior High, When asked what he likes best about school this year he stated with much emotion "what ever" I think that means he likes it... When Tiffany was asked the same question she rattled off a list of about 30 things all having to do with friends in her class... Taylor's favorite thing about being in the 1st grade is " I get to have 3 recesses a day and I get to eat lunch at school!!!"
I have been asked to be the 11 Year Old Scout Leader in our area. So I am scrambling to get the 5 boys all up to speed and excited about Scouting.

As soon as the weather cools a little (under 90) we will be starting our new deck. Pictures will follow.

We did take a trip to the Unita's for Labor Day. We took a very rocky road to the East end of the Deuschesne Tunnel, then had lunch and fished in Echo Lake in the Murdock Basin. On the way out we stopped at Butterfly Lake and I actually caught a small trout. Taylor wasn't happy that he didn't catch anything. I will post the pics in the next few days.

Look out Sept...
