Father's Day

Father's Day ended up to be a perfect day. . We started the day off at church and I was able to watch my boys and Aaron sing in Sacrament Meeting and it was so nice to hear them sing about the Priesthood and to realize how blessed we are to have the gospel! After we packed up a lunch and headed to the West Boulder River. When we arrived it poured down rain for about ten minutes so we ate our picnic in the car but then the skies opened up and we were able to go enjoy a walk by the river. It was BEAUTIFUL!! So green, wildflowers were abundant and the river was high and fast. It reminded me of my favorite childhood spot, our Great Grandpa's cabin and the Weber River. We saw lots of wildlife including a bear way off in the distance at the tree line with 3 young cubs, deer, antelope (which came charging towards the car), and some wild turkeys. I know Aaron was wishing he could pull out a gun but I was happy to shoot away with my camera! We also went on a little treasure hunt with our GPS to find a geocache (which is like buried treasure that people hide all over the country and you look up the coordinates online and track with your gps). Sure enough we found it and inside were some badges and little toys.. (its the picture of Aaron and the boys holding a green container). If you take something then you leave something else and inside is a note of all the people who have found it. Its so fun for the boys! On the way home they used a marker in the car to entertain themselves by coloring each other's faces! OH BOYS! It was so nice to have a perfect day. They are rare but when they happen the memories last a lifetime. I am grateful for Aaron and for all of his love for our boys.
