August Events

Well, I am becoming a little more motivated with this blogging thing since it really is my only type of journal or scrapbooking to keep all the memories of our family. So in August we had the last of our siblings get married. This went down as the wedding of the decade for the Watkins Family. It was a great event and we are so happy for the new couple! We feel so lucky to have Melissa and Ryker join the clan. Below are a few of the photos from the days events.






Yes, of course we had to go back to school this month. It is always a bit bitter sweet to have the kids back in school. It is nice to have more of a schedule and routines each day, but man it really puts a damper of the fun. Brynnley is starting 9th grade this year, Brookelyn is in 6th grade and Camden in 3rd. I'm a bit of a slacker when it comes to pictures of the kids going to junior high, but I did manage to get out of bed to get the kids heading off to elementary school. I know, pretty pathetic!

Lake Powell

Yes, our summer would not be complete with some time spent on the boat at Lake Powell. This year we went the very end of July, then back again just before the kids went back to school. Unfortunately the last trip was cut a little short since Brynnley had tryouts for the Jr. High volleyball team. It's a good thing she made the team so coming back early was worth it. We enjoyed the time with friends cliff jumping, playing in the sand, good food, some late night fun and of course the time playing behind the boat. There are always oodles of crazy fun pictures from Powell, so here are a few from both trips to wet your appetite, since it is February now, it will certainly make you wish for some sunnier and warmer days!
