There is hope!

With all the Day Care and their schedules, my children and their schedules, KFC and all that that entails, Eagle Projects, Bottling and freezing, Cleaning and weeding the list never ends. Then we go to take the dirty diaper to the Trash and witness this rainbow. It gives us hope. We live in a beautiful world and all this will be worth it in the end.
Thank heavens the Lord gives us these reminders when we need them.

Like Always...

We completed the physical end of the Eagle Project and got the Blazer running again so...
Like always we go fishing. We BBQed up some steaks, burger and sausages on the shore and then fished until we couldn't see.
The algae was so thick at Newcastle that Kimber was drawing pictures in it with her fishing line. Creative huh!
Swipper first cast!

Eagle Project complete... almost



The Balloon Festival started early and we enjoyed watching them on our way to Parowan Canyon.

More Eagle Stuff

We went up to Parawon Canyon last week and spray painted all the steel posts that are set for benches to help keep them from rusting.  
We started out in the light but finished painting by flashlight
Kimber, Kyle, Erick, Kurtis and I were able to finish and hike back out by flashlight. It was actually pretty fun. We head back up on Saturday to assemble all the benches and clean up the trail and we will just have to get the paper work completed. Yeah! We are almost there.
