At Nate's 1st soccer game of the season. Hope all of the falls at the skatepark this morning didn't mess him up.

At the denver skatepark 4 some shredding (and lots of falling).

Jerome K. Jerome: "It is impossible to enjoy idling thoroughly unless one has plenty of work to do." but what if my job was 2 test video games?

Welcom Home Pioneers!

Here are pictures of Austin and his friend Cody getting home from the trek. Austin had a good time on trek and he said it wasn't as hard as he thought it would be. I'm was really glad to hear that because while he was away at trek his doctor called to say that he had tested positive for strep. I was so worried he was going to pass out on the trail or have to be pulled on the handcart. There was no way of contacting anyone on the trek because they were out in the middle of nowhere. Luckily none of these things happened and Austin had a great time!

Waimea Bay

We did so many fun things while we were in Hawaii that it was hard to include them all in the post about our trip. One fun thing we did while there was jumping off of the rock at Waimea bay, in North shore. It looked like so much fun and not too scary while we were walking up to it. Plus there were little kids jumping off of it. So I thought how hard could it be to jump off of this rock. Well, Austin, Brian and Nathan all jumped off of it with no problem and had so much fun doing it that they went multiple times.

Check out the guy right above Nate. He did a flip or two before landing in the water!

Then it was my turn. I climbed up the rock with Austin and thought I'd be okay going to the higher side of the rock. Well once I got up there it was a long way down. It was almost three stories high. I stood on the rock so long I had people (natives) telling me it wasn't really that far down and that I'd be ok. That it would be fun. I guess when you do something scary like this it's best not to think about it and to just do it. I waited way to long. So I climbed down to the lower part of the rock and managed to jump off. It was fun and I hoped Brian had gotten a good picture because I was not doing it again...ever.

At the dog park. This dog could chase tennis balls all day.

Just met a young buck (deer) while mountain biking. Put camera phone pics on later.

At the movies: Harry Potter #6.

Hot day. Out riding bikes with family. At the Jamba Juice pit-stop for Peach Pleasure.
