Twin Peaks Hike

Who are those mountain goats?

It's just a bunch of Grafs!

Kolby and Kevin rejoice at reaching the summit.

The whole crew on the top.

They came home in the dark with one sick child and only 2 flashlights. Curt ended up with a deep gash on his arm that required waking up our neighbor who is an emergency room doctor, and another doctor visit the next day with powerful antibiotics and a tetanus shot.  All in all, another memorable Graf hike that they would all do again. Maybe. Not.

Summer Glimpses-the Anniversary

So much better than a van!

If you pose them, they will cry...or close their eyes, or look distracted. Well, either way they're cute!

These guys (and gals) are cute, too!

Wow! This is quite the group!

Summer Glimpses-Bryce Canyon

We had an awesome day at Bryce Canyon.

Look at the cute little squirrel...not the one in the red shirt, the smaller one behind the fence.

This picture illustrates an analogy...something about reaching for the light, overcoming obstacles, etc.

How many Grafs will fit on a log......

...... a lot!

The tunnel of (sisterly) love.

I bought all of this for $25.00! That's an average of .50 cents an item. Thanks Stephanie for cluing me in to coupons and thanks Tracy for showing me the Grocery Smarts website.

A Few Glimpses of Summer

Erin and Kevin were two of 7,000 performers at the Conference center for the Draper Temple Celebration. Our stake did a 20's dance. The youth spent months practicing and the results were spectacular.

Ashley and Matt's wedding was a another highlight.

No, Rachel and Camille are not on a lake or a pond....

it rained so much in June that our subdivision's water retaining area was filled up several times. Kevin took the rowboat out one night when the water was overflowing into the street.
