Fence

Oh, the fence.  We have lived here for 5 years and we haven't had a fence on one side of our yard.  We have had fun sharing the space with our neighbors, but it was time.  I really needed a fence :)

So we talked with our neighbors, made plans, bought supplies, and called in reinforcements!

My Dad and brother in law were so great to spend the whole day helping.  And luckily our good friend had actually built a fence before, so he was important :)

Let me just tell you, it is a beautiful fence.  And I am a better, happier neighbor!

Mancation 2012

Mancation 2012 took Allen to Moab.  They rode the Whole Enchilada, Slickrock (during the day and for a night ride), Amasa Rock and Mag 7.

They also caught a good view of a solar eclipse . . .

And even figured out he could capture the solar eclipse in the reflection in the lens of the camera . . . look close in the center of the picture below!

And since one activity is never enough, they also spent some time hiking and repelling in Granary Canyon (since the slot canyon hike with dry suits was still frozen).

Mother's Day

Seriously love this girl!

I had a really nice Mother's Day.  We had my family over for dinner and all of the guys cooked.

One thing I really wanted was some pictures of me and the kids.

Happy Mother's Day to me!
