Catching Up On Things!

The poor little creatures that live near us....Jeff is always out shooting with the kids. I don't even know how many poor helpless birds died because of Dallen's great aim. And the rabbits on our quad rides better watch out too. Jeff is always on the lookout for coyotes (there is a $25 bounty on them here in Utah). And last, but not least, the poor little woodchucks (or varmints). Like this one pictured here, had a nice little home in the field at the KOA, but I guess their holes are a nuisance for the horse's leggs!

Here's some of my family at our Davis Family Reunion (my mom's side) just kicking back in Toquerville, Utah. Mandi, Dad, Jeff, Jentry, Uncle Sid, Aunt Patti, Cousin Danny, Popsi (my Grandpa Don, and Mom.

We also had a couple of reunions that we attended this year. This is my Dad's brothers and 1/2 sister and their spouses at Dad's Jolley reunion in Tropic, Utah. Emma & David Millett, Melanie & Rob Millett, Christine & David Johnson, Mom & Dad, Susan & Ron Millett, Paul Millett, his girlfriend and her mom (sorry, I don't remember their names).

Dallen & Bevan - with a catfish (I think).

Sierra and Jentry - Just kicking around like the little guppies they are!!

We also spent a good deal of time at Lake Powell. Jeff's folks have a houseboat and a ski boat. We also inherited an older ski boat to take the kids tubing on. We just have to remember....SUNBLOCK, WATER, & SALT (mostly for Dallen and Jentry who seem to let the sun take every once of energy from them)!! The water is always so refreshing and the kids also love to fish with Uncle Bev, Jeff and Kristi's friend Rory! Sierra became quite a good little diver this year. We were very excited about that!

What a cool dude! And Sierra in that sexy hat, ready for a ride with Rylie and Grammie. Then Jentry waits patiently for Daddy to get ready!

We also went on a few 4-wheeler rides....and cooking hotdogs over a fire is a must!

This past summer we did quite a bit of camping and fishing. The kids were all excited, they each caught a fish of their own! Jeff is always very good and patient with them!

Dallen got quite a shiner while playing minor league this past May. He got a little nervous after this and didn't want to play much the last couple of games. I can't really blame him!! We hope he will get back in there this year and have fun!

So, many of you may have seen Jeff's nice bull elk he shot in Sept. 2007, but is case you didn't, here it is. It is now mounted (European Style), and hanging in our living room. We love it!
