Oktoberfest at Snowbird

Our yearly tradition lives on! This year we didn't get to have Sieauna with us, but we still enjoyed the food, friends, beer and beautiful weather! Always a good time and this year was especially fun because we celebrated Trent's birthday, 

Red Pine Lake Trail

After Bethanie took me on a small portion of this beautiful hike, I knew I wanted to finish it. So, one Sunday when the boys were brewing some beer, Shelly, Krissie, Emma and I decided to hike it! It was hard! It gets really, REALLY steep. The views were worth it! Krissie and Emma turned back a few miles in while Shelly and I trekked through to the top. The lake was so pretty and we felt so accomplished!  I swore I'd probably never do it again until the following weekend when Justin asked me to go with him. Of course I said yes and off we were again! This trail is rated "hard" and is a little over seven miles. Totally worth it though, the views and memories are unbelievable! Justin even brought up his fly rod to tempt the fishes. They wouldn't bite, but still lots of fun.

Softball Blanket

After lots of years of softball jerseys, I decided to cut them up and make Sieauna a blanket so she could keep a collection of her softball uniforms.  I dedicated a weekend and went for it. It isn't perfect by any means, but it's close enough and she loves it.
