Girls Camp - Darby 2013

When school got out Mayli started driver's ed - then in the middle of the month her teacher (Dee) got sick and spent a week in the hospital.  We were worried that Mayli would not be able to go to girls' camp at the end of the month but - - he recuperated (I hope) and came back to finish the class and we were able to get her to camp.  Just adding a few of the pictures she took because it seemed to be so beautiful where she went.







Cousin time in Riverton - 2013



Also in June we went to Riverton, Wyoming, for a missionary farewell.  Dan & Karen's oldest son Clayton received a call to serve in the Phoenix, Arizona mission.  We had not gone to their house ever in Riverton and decided that now was a good time to do it.

Tyson & Clayton
This is Clayton - he is just a few days older than Shelby. While there this is what most of the kids were doing the whole time - playing video games....

Shelby & Justin
One of Clayton's friends (don't know his name), Ryan, Caleb & Mayli

Justin and Bryce - Bryce is VERY tall and I told Justin to stand next to him so we could see how much he grew by the time we saw him next time and he would not do it right - - all he had to do was stand up.  But he had to get on his toes so he wouldn't appear shorter!   grrrr








We slept in a tent in their yard, ate a huge breakfast in the morning - enjoyed the company, the Sacrament meeting and the good food afterwards.

On our way home we had to go through Jackson Hole so we stopped and looked around for awhile and took a few fun photos.

Mayli & and (Thomas Edison)Mark

Candy and Thomas Jefferson

Shelby & Benjamin Franklin


 In our family we have a "thing" for all things medievel - - whether it be in books or movies... Lord of the Rings, King Arthur, etc. so when they saw this sword - - of course they had to "play the part"





And of course the scenery was just beautiful and quite different between Jackson and Riverton.

Driver's Education - Mayli

Mayli has begun taking Driver's Ed since school has let out.  She will be taking a class on Mondays and then two times a week for various hours of time she will drive.  Today I caught her coming back to the school!

Some of you will know who her Driver's Ed teacher is - - Dee (or Lorendee ?? sp) Harrison is Mayli's teacher.  He is the Athletic Director at West Jefferson - the kids seem to really like him.  :)
