Island Park Day 3 - July 24, 2008

We did some 4-wheeling today. Luke, Brittany, Jared and I went, but we didn't know where we were going, so Breelyn and Nolan came, too. Breelyn led and we followed her all over. It was really dusty!

Breelyn & Nolan. They were sunburned from their ride from the day before.

Here's Luke! He rides like he likes it.

Here's Brittany and Jared after the ride. We all fought over showers!

Island Park Day 2 - July 23, 2008

Everyone seemed to enjoy riding in the boat or skiing behind it. On this day we took Kendra and Cody out. They hadn't ever tried wakeboarding, and they did great!

Here's a good one of Mark. He was out on the boat every day.
Jared doing the kneeboard.
Kendra wakeboarding. She got up on her third try, just muscled through the hard part. She did great.
We took Kendra and Cody on the tube and tried to kill 'em, but they really fought the motion and we couldn't throw them off!
Jared had his turn tubing, too!

Later that day we took family photos. Here's our family being weird!

Island Park Trip Day 1 - July 22, 2008

We left for our Island Park trip on Monday, July 21. We spent that night at Grandma & Grandpa's and left the next day for Island Park. The first day we just unpacked and got the boat in the water. It was our night for dinner and we made dutch oven BBQ chicken and cheesy potatoes. Unfortunately, that was the night of the big thunderstorm, so about 15 minutes into cooking the food, the coals were swimming in water. The guys moved the food into the oven and onto the outdoor camp stove. Here they are trying to keep it lit long enough to cook!

While the food was cooking, Stacey decided I needed to do her hair. We used one of those Clairol Frost & Tip things. Here's a lovely photo of her with the cap and bleach on.

It was also Grandpa's birthday (he's 67)! Breelyn made this nice cake for him and we sang happy birthday and had cake. Grandpa was a little surprised at how well we sounded!
