Timp baby

After 3 unsuccessful attempts, Beth finally made it to the top of Mt. Timpanogos! Chesley had already done it a few times, and Blake and I had hiked it as well, We started at about midnight of Friday and hiked until about 10 AM Saturday. The first 5 hours was basically just hiking in the dark - not much to see but the rocks and the feet in front of you, lit by your head lamp. It was a lot of fun though. I think Beth would have benefited greatly by a nap prior to the hike, but she still managed. It was pretty awesome when we approached the top. You could see little bobbing lights scattered across the peak, it looked like a line of working ants. Once we reached the top, we had a quick snack and headed back down. It was too cold and windy to linger. The way down was much more beautiful, as it was now lit up by the sun. Speaking of the sun, we also got to see the sunrise, which was beautiful. Anyhow, here are some pics of the event.










This is towards the top - you can see the lights of come city, I think it's Heber.



How cool is this - some strange wolf statue.










As you can see, it was indeed more beautiful on the way down.



Kind of hard to tell, but that's a mountain goat there in front of Beth on the trail.



And there's the beast at a distance.

Our Trip to Colorado

We recently took a trip to Colorado. It was loads of fun. We started by driving through Breckenridge. That's where Beth and I spent our 1 year anniversary. It's pretty crazy, Beth and I have now been married for over a year. It's funny, we've heard from many people that the first year is the hardest. But honestly, our first year was pretty darn awesome. Perhaps that's just because Beth and I are so non-confrontational. We typically only disagree about what to see at the dollar theater, and even then we come to a consensus. So anyhow, we're doing great and looking forward to another fabulous year. So yeah, my parents were able to get us some bonus time on their time share in Breckenridge so we enjoyed a fabulous evening at a top-notch resort. We ate at Downstairs at Eric's of course. The picture below was the one decent picture we got while at Breckenridge. We then moved on to Fort Collins.

Beth insisted that we take some pictures for our one-year anniversary.

Mike was pretty excited about taping up James. He then let James tape him up.

Beth caught in some deep contemplation...

This is the local neighborhood park, Riffenburgh Elementary - where I went long ago. Of course the pard is totally different now - nothing to break any bones on. Parks just aren't like they used to be.

This is our series of "Action Shots"

I volunteered to make James' birthday cake - well actually it was mine and James'. His birthday is on the 15th and mine the 14th. So naturally the cake was Star wars themed.

These are his presents, the t-rex loaded with gummy worms was from Beth and me.

Our next trip was to Vedauwoo - the coolest little oasis of rock formations in Whyoming.

Super-imposed Beth the Hulk

Though a little bit nervous, Beth successfully made her way down the rock face.

That's Jake on his way down.

And of course more action shots.

I love our family. We always have such grand adventures and we get along so well. We all love and support each other and there's no end to the good times and plentiful laughter. Thanks for being so awesome everybody.
