Summer Fun

This year up at the Uintah Mountains there weren't many fish, too many mosquitos, and cold cold nights but with all that I loved every minute we had to be up in one of God's greatest creations. I love the outdoors especially the mountains.. it seriously is gorgeous up there and the nights are amazing you can see every star in the Universe and i get to snuggy up close to my Man!


Here is the picture you've all been waiting for. A shot of my prego belly. My little mister had fun camping too. (i almost said his name) 
 This year I got to try something new and adventurous and exciting. Daniel taught me how to shoot a shotgun. I'll be honest I really wanted to do it but at the same time I didn't. I was scared of the loudness and that it would jerk back and hurt me.. I knew the shock would come and I was scared of that moment to happen. I kept hesitating and Dan kept urging me come on babe you can do it, I promise it doesn't hurt. Finally after about what seemed an hour I finally shot the gun. and like I said that moment of surprise of loudness and the force of the gun scared me right out of my pants. I stuck to the little pistol after that.. But then I did a few more times later when we took some of the kiddos.
 Isn't this a great WANTED POSTER!! BEWARE of Bandit lurking about the mountains!!




Daniel slaving away picking up firewood for the fire and he filled our trunk full of wood to build me a boat. No it was actually for his scout campout.



Daniel's Birthday was that week as well. It was fun even though he was at school all day studying his little brains out. Kelsi and I made his cake the night before. For his birthday I themed it to be a Few of his Favorite things and one of his favorite candy bars is Reece's so I made him a Reece's cake. It was really rich but I thought it was delicious. I put the cake in the freezer with a note on the outside don't you dare peek inside of me or else your dead. Then inside the freezer i taped Black construction paper and put food in front of the cake pans so he couldn't see what was inside with another note saying "I thought i told you not to peek!" He had a kick out of that. so he did try peeking the little sneak.





The following week Daniel went and took his boys to scout camp down at Moab. He had a lot of fun with the boys as well as them with him. He wore them right as they went biking throughout the wilderness.

  2. Woah Cass your belly is getting pretty big. Looks like Aiden is going to be a big boy. And I know I've got his name right. So don't try telling me that I didn't. And that cake was the bomb.
