Spandex Saturday

This Saturday we went to Kylies gymnastic meet. She is currently in level 4 and will hopefully be moving up to level 5 after her state meet in a couple weeks.

Out of the 20 girls in her age/level group she took 2nd! She was awesome we are so proud of her!


After watching little girls flip around in spandex leotards all day long, we were headed up to Salt Lake to watch a bunch of men beat eachother to death wearing about the same amount of spandex!! WOO HOO!!! lol


As you can see it was pretty hot..... this guy was about 50....



But here is who we really came to see.....Mikes good friend Derek who he works with. Derek is huge in the Utah Wrestling community and this was his last show. There was a huge crowd there to support him. Derek put on a great show and got slammed into a ladder, got beat with some sticks, threw himself and a guy into the ring filled with thumb tacks and to top it all off they threw themselves onto tables which broke onto the hard floor it was pretty awesome!

Moab

For mothers day we took my mother in law Lini to Moab. She had never been before and was so excited to go. As you can see Chopper was also very excited to go, he wouldnt get out of the way so we could pack up the jeep!


The first day we went to a place called 'The Powerhouse' its not to well known yet and its a pretty easy hike. In the middle of the hike it leads you to this beautiful waterfall. There were tons of people diving off of it into the water below, but we didn't get that adventurous.






In fact me and Lini were pretty boring and didnt even get wet. We left that up to Mike, Kylie and Chopper.


In the middle of the day we hiked all over Arches National Park. We decided to save the Delicate Arch hike until very last so we could see it at sunset.

We were totally pooped by the time we got there- as you can see by Mikes face.



We werent alone at Delicate Arch. There were TONS of people there photographing the arch at sunset. We ran over for about 20 seconds by the arch to get a picture and got yelled at by all of these people in unison. It was pretty funny.




Here's me trying to be a photographer with our walmart camera again. If you haven't hiked Delicate Arch at sunset I highly reccomend it- its BEAUTIFUL!





Kylie and Lini loved the Moab trip. We were so glad we could take them!
