St. George

Tim and I took a long time needed vacation to St. George last weekend. My grandparents live down there so we were able to stay with them. It is always great to visit with them. Grandma even made her awesome Biscuits and Gravy for breakfast-a big favorite of ours.
We kept busy the whole time, hardly a minute to just sit. We went fishing Saturday evening at Quail Creek Reservoir just outside of Hurricane, it was my first time and Tim was such a good teacher that I even caught a fish! Tim caught one too but I wasn't around to take a picture. :(

That fish kept wiggling around and it scared me so to protect myself from getting touched by the fish I had to stare at it long and hard to detect any movement...my attempts were not successful. Tim got a good laugh at least
It was a cool experience regardless. Thanks Tim!

Tim LOVES to golf so as his wife I am 'obligated' to go too :). We went to some really pretty courses. Tim is really good, and I think I would rank at "fair." It was great weather and we had a lot of fun being out in the sun and fresh air. The more I go, the more I like it, so Tim may not be able to go golfing without me anymore. Sorry honey.







Getting ready to tee off. Tim is preparing to hit the ball over a lake. One of the golf courses had a ravine to hit the ball over...mine didn't make it. I lost a lot of balls at that course. Tim of course had no trouble.



This is my swing. I know there are a LOT of things that can be improved upon. Tim bought me golf shoes so I got a lot better. Ha.


Woo Wee, look at that stance. Looks just like a pro. And cute too!
I didn't get pictures but we went over to the Senior Olympics to watch some events and it was really cool. Who knew old people could be so athletic? They were really good. I had no idea that it was such a big event, people from all over the world came to St. George to compete!
All in all it was such a good trip. It feels so nice to just get away from everything and relax.

The BEST part....We Moved!






Good bye Wasatch Club :) We are so outta there. I do have to say we had a good two years in the 584 square foot apartment....no really. It is nice to be gone though. We have moved to a basement apartment in Sandy. We welcome any visitors, but beware that if it is during "Friends" or during a Utah Jazz game you'll have to pardon our laughing and cheering!!!

We borrowed a dolly and good thing; I'm not sure I could have carried my giant Costco sized Bisquik by myself! Phew!

I forget the order of these things. More motorcycle pics

Poor thing, a huge wilderness and this is all there was to eat.
Mirror Lake, one of the stops on the motorcycle trip
A quick stop on the way home to give their backsides a rest :)
What a handsome fella.

We are BACK!

Kara went to Youth Conference. We went River Rafting down the Colorado River. It was a BLAST! There was a family visiting from Paris for a few days so one of the river guides carved the family out of a watermelon.



The Fugate boys and Tim went on a motorcycle trip to Bear Lake. I am so proud of Tim for being brave and going. He is deathly afraid of motorcycles!! Everybody ended up having alot of fun

Rodeo...Bees Game

On the 24th of July we went to the Bees game with Reagan and Angie, Trevor and Sarah, & Drew and Katie. It was a fun game, there was a really good fireworks show afterwards that we went out onto the baseball field to watch. Tim and I went to the Bees game on the 4th of July as well, but that one wasn't as fun. It was SOOO crowded, we always get seats on the burm (grass behind the outfield) because its cheaper and more comfortable and on the 4th there was not a single piece of grass for us to sit on! We ended up sitting on the sidewalk behind people that would not sit down, so we didn't get to see any of the game. The firework show that night wasn't as good as the one on the 24th.

I have to bunch all of my exciting life onto this blog at one time since I don't have internet at home. So our last two weeks have been fun, we actually did something worth blogging about. On Monday we went to the Spanish Fork Rodeo. I have been going to this rodeo since I can remember only missing it a few times. My Fugate grandparents are originally from Spanish Fork so they came with us. This rodeo is the coolest one ever! They include some different events besides the common bull ride, bareback, etc. There is mutton bustin' where little kids ride sheep, and the trailor race where big fat men race to saddle and ride a horse (or donkey) it is so funny. I didn't get any pictures of the rodeo, just Tim and I afterwards-not in cowboy clothes I regrettably add.

Girls Camp

This is the whole gang. Plus the bishopric. We join with another ward since both of us have such small young women groups. This picture is kind of blurry-my camera is having issues and so is this font, I don't know why it changed colors all of the sudden. This is Sheryn my first councilor, she is great. In this picture she is finishing off the fruit salad for us. Waste not, want not!

I went to girls camp last weekend with the young women out by Scofield Reservoir. It was so much fun. I have never been out to Scofield and it was awesome, so pretty and quiet. We didn't get to go boating or anything just camping at a nearby stake owned campground. My girls are great. I don't think I could ask for better ones. We had some girls who have never been camping before EVER! So that was an adventure-they had a lot to learn. This picture is of some of the girls just being goofy.

We are still here!


Hello! We are still here, everyone can stop worrying. ;) I do not have easy access to the internet anymore now that I got my new job. So I do not get a chance to update much. Let me catch you all up on us real quick: I work for Hoopes Vision as an ophthalmic technician, Tim is soon moving postitions to work for Dr. White for Invison. Tim is participating in his favorite activity...golfing... at this very minute. I just got finished playing my co-ed softfall game which we won and I got a softball size, purple, lump on my ankle-not to mention with thread shaped lines all over it. It was a great game. We have been busy looking for a home as our lease at Wasatch Club ends at the end of August. So to sum it all up we are doing well, hot, but well. Oh and this picture is my little bro Trevor taking me for a motorcycle ride. Lucky!
