Family Pictures 2009

We got our family pictures done a couple weeks ago by a really good friend of mine, Ashley Myers. Since she did such a great job, I thought I would post some of them online for everyone to see. Sorry for those of you who have already seen these on Facebook. If you want more info on her or her phone number, just leave me a message and I'll get her info to you. Oh, and she is very reasonably priced!

Kassi's Birthday Weekend!

Ever since Kassi has turned one we have taken her to the zoo on her Birthday. This year was no exception. Her Birthday was on Saturday, and lucky for us, the weather was beautiful! Even a little chilly, which is so bizarre. Every year has been so freakin' hot, it's almost miserable. This year was so much better! Grandpa and Grandma Clegg came with cousins Collin and Ty. They all had a blast. Here are some pics of the zoo:


Kassi, Collin, and Ty. Such cute cousins!

Kassi and Grandpa. They are such good buddies!

Next we went to my sis-in-law Wendy's house and had a swimming party. Not only was it Kassi's b-day last week, but it was also my bro-in-law's, Jesse, and my nephew's, Trey. The kids had alot of fun swimming. Notice, none of the adults are in the pool. Here are some pics of that party.

On Sunday we had my family over for a party. This is a picture of Kass with some of her gifts.

It is so hard to think that my "baby" is now 4. She is growing up so fast and is at such a fun age. She has become my best buddy, and I love her more than life.
Happy Birthday Sass!

July 24th at Heber Valley Camp!

Pioneer Day was so much fun this year! The whole Clegg side of the family went up to Heber Valley Camp. It is absolutley beautiful there! It is owned by the church and run by senior missionaries. Everything is so well taken care of and clean! My great in-laws rented out 3 cabins in this little cove area. It had an area for cooking and even a refrigerator we could use. Plus the bathrooms were right down the road.(That is my idea of camping!)

There is a little lake there where you can get in a canoe or a paddle boat and just row around it. The wildlife there is amazing. There were deer all over. And they weren't scared by humans. While rowing around the lake there would be deer just laying on the side in the grass. You could seriously make eye contact with them! The setting was absolutley gorgeous! We also did some rope courses while we there.(Ya know, the courses where you challenge yourself and there is a lesson to go along with it.) Those were fun doing together with the family. The first one we did was the rope swing. It freaked the crap out of me! They put you in a harness, pull you up high, and then let you go. I'm super scared of heights, so I'm not into the free falling thing, but I tried to conquer my fear,(key word is tried) and went on it. It was, um, fun. They even put the little kids on it and just let them swing around.

Anyway, if you all are wondering where to go camping where it is high in the mountains, you are surrounded by wildlife, and you have flushing toilets and cabins to sleep in, Heber Valley Camp is where you should go! It was so fun, and I can't wait to go next year! Here are some pics.....................

In the boats







This deer was there both of the days we were. It seriously would just sit there. We got so close to it. These animals are so beautiful to me!

They had a huge sandbox for the kids to play in at the lake. They were more happy playing in the sand than doing anything else!

Grace, Kassi, Hailey, and Eme. Such cute cousins!

The first pic is of Kassi on one of the rope courses. She was pretty nervous about the whole thing. Then, I don't know if you can see it very well, but these are pics of Kassi, Brad, and me on the rope swing. It was a lot higher than it looks!

July 4th

So, I thought since it is almost the 24th, I better hurry and post pics from the fourth. That day was a crazy day. Brad and me actually spent most of the day looking at houses. Kassi went over to my parent's house and my mom took her to go see Ice Age 3. We got to my parent's house in enough time to go pick up Kassi and head over to my Uncle Steve's house. They had a great BBQ and then we did our own little firework show. We left there just in time to arrive at the Clegg circle firework show. Really busy, but fun day! Here are some pics:

My Uncle Steve bought this big blow up water slide. He set it all up for the kids to play on it. Danny wouldn't go anywhere near it, and Kassi and Zachy didn't want to slide down it. Robby tried and tried to get them to go up, but they both decided they wanted to play at the bottom where the water was.

Sparkler Time!



Kassi not too thrilled with the fireworks.


And the funnest part of the night............Chasing their cousin Robby while he skateboarded.
