Just bad luck...

Whitney, Stuart and I went 4-wheeling today down at my mom's house. Stuart decided to go through the creek, well, he made it fine, but Whitney was only in 2 wheel drive when she went....

and she got stuck. No problem though, we sent Stuart for a tow-chain....

and he got stuck! Luckily we had 3 4-wheelers there, so...

we pulled him out then Whitney next, then I thought, "I'll bet I can make it through..."

and I got stuck! :)

Happy Birthday Howie!

Howie (Hadley) celebrated her first birthday today! We got to go to her party out at my Mom's house and we had a blast! She is such a cutie!

Cake

Hadley got to eat the center of her birthday cake all by herself. She was enjoying it until she rubbed her eyes... poor thing. I guess frosting doesn't feel too great in your eyes!

New Website

Well, it's official... Stuart has his own website! :) We've been working so hard at getting it up and running, and I think it turned out really well. Check it out for yourself
www.utahidahohomeloans.com. I can't believe how difficult it was to put together! We've worked weeks on it now... although if anyone has any suggestions, feel free to leave a comment. Enjoy!

4-Wheeling!

The Brower-family boys go on an annual 4-wheeler ride every year. This year Justin, Michael, Stuart and Ethan went. They rode from Millville Canyon to Bear Lake (120 miles round trip). It took them 11 hours! They had a blast!

Stuart getting ready to ride.


Apparently it was necessary to "Fuel up" with some Mountian Dew before the big trip!

Here is Ethan securing the extra gas tanks.

Here they are getting ready to go!


Stuart showing just one of his many talents!

This is poor Michael trying to get to the top of Mount Logan on his 2-wheel drive 4-wheeler... everyone else had 4-wheel drive. Needless to say he made it about 10 feet from the top and had to walk the rest!


The view from the top of Mount Logan! Beautiful!!!

Well, apparently when you register your 4-wheelers, they want you to stick the new little stickers over the old ones! :) Yes, they were registered, and yes they got pulled over by a park-ranger. Luckily the guy was nice and just looked it up and saw that they were telling the truth! :)

Here is Michael getting pulled out of the mud.


This is Ethan and Michael... yes Ethan rode the same trail as Michael... yet Michael is un-recognizable for all the mud!

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Saturday was my Grandma's birthday! So, all of us local girls ran on down to Layton to have lunch with her. It was a blast! Grandma looks great and is still so young! Only 77!!! We love you Grandma, thanks for letting us share part of your day with you!

BOOKS!

Ok, well Whitney and Lauryn have both written on their blogs about these WONDERFUL books we have been reading! Yes, they are romance novels (but clean ones!). The author's name is Marcia Lynn McClure. You seriously cannot put them down. Annaka started reading them then got us ALL into them. My mom even loves them and she's not a reader. If you decide to reward yourself by reading one of these books, start with "The Visions of Ransom Lake" It is my favorite! :) Enjoy!

Annaka

Annaka got asked to Homecoming (I think) this year. I got to do her hair and makeup. She borrowed the dress from a friend. Doesnt' she look pretty?

Jackson Hole

So, Stuart and I went to Jackson Hole over Labor Day with my Dad's family. It was tons of fun. Whit and Paul came to and we had a blast!

Obviously this is Pauls "better" side!

Celeste and Stuart

My Dad and his girlfriend Karen

Hadley and Whitney

Hadley... not sure why I didn't get any pictures of Sesaly... but she was there!

Hummm....

Are we noticing a theme here with Whit's pictures? :) Sorry Whit... it was too tempting!

Some Random Pictures...

So, here are some pictures I found of some of my nieces and nephews. They are so cute! Also, please bare with me, as I haven't figrued out how to edit pictures correctly yet. :)
