Dace returns and family fun!

Last Sunday I had to speak in church.  It was only like 7 minutes because they had all the wives of the bishopric and clerk's speak, so it was pretty easy.  Then we rushed over right after our sacrament meeting to hear Dace speak.  It was awesome!  It was fun to hear a little about his mission.  Then he sang!  He has such an incredible voice.  It was awesome.  Bruce spoke after that and gave a great talk.  We went over to their house afterward for lunch and hung out with family for a bit.  It was a nice afternoon.

Monday we went on a hike with the family that was still in town from Dace's mission report.....Jalene and kids, Rebecca and kids + grandma and grandpa.  We went up to Tony Grove Lake, hiked around the lake, played in the water, and had a picnic.  It was pretty fun.

they spotted a moose!  See it along the bank?

 

If you're short on kayak's a log works too!

Carson looking majestic...actually more like in pain.  He ran to Naomi and back while we were all hanging out at the lake.  He fell on the trail on the way back down and got banged up pretty good.
