Porter’s got a new smile

clowning around

The kids had fun playing dress-up at the church tonight after a relief society lesson.

Sabino Canyon- one of my fav spots in Tucson

We went hiking & then took a swim. Apparently Marlee kept her underwear on…under her bathing suit. 

 

Clayton caught a black necked garter snake…it seems we can’t go anywhere without catching some type of reptile. There was also plenty of fish swimming around.

 

Clayton & Laun swam & swam:

 

Porter & Marlee joined in:

 

Porter’s swimming is getting better & better, just in time for swim team this summer.

 

And even I joined in-well, Laun actually pushed me in as I was slowly adjusting to the water temperature.

 

Worn out kids, equals time to hike out.

 

Clayton wants to be just like Laun.

 

Mom & Marlee

 

Porter biffed it on the way out of the hike. He was running about full speed ahead, while looking to the side at some ducks flying by. Lets just say it is better to look ahead while you are running. He got some good cuts (nice bloody hip, knee, elbow, etc), so we had him pile in the stroller with Marlee.

Poor Porter, but we still had a great time. I will miss Sabino Canyon when we move next year.

Black Hills-North of Tucson

Jamie & the boys hiking:

 

 

Elderberry joined them:

 

 

 

love these boys

 

They found this super old can-cigarette container: 

 

Where’s Porter?

 

love all the desert flowers & plants

 

They had a good time on their all boy trip & I was glad Laun took lots of pictures.
