July for the Rich Family

Treyson is working hard, and holding strong.  His determination is amazing. 

Tagg is going FOOTBALL strong ! 

Got roasted in the pool one day. 

BTW - they are enjoying the pool for sure.
Here Thatch is with friends. 
Even the dogs are enjoying it ! Click here to see their antics 

Zac built an awesome deck, and Thatcher and Tagg painted it.

Thatcher has started his last year of "Little League" football.

He has also enjoyed floating the creek with friends.

Tagg and Bo went to the Pioneer Days Rodeo in style !

 

The Project continues, this time, branching into the "wood shop", because CJ needed more room that was taken away from her "dog room" for Treyson's upcoming studio apartment

Misc. "Us" in July

Our lawn started coming back to life after no water for 3 months.  Wet well finally came online about June 19th.  It's sure been a dry summer.  Only rain we have had was on July 4th.

We had our cement slabs raised, to even out the settling.  We've been really pleased with the result. 

We took Mom's grapevine down.  Looks really nice. 

Love my sun flowers  - these came back from last year's flowers.
All of the seeds I planted (from seeds taken from two years ago heads) were a total bust.  Just like the rest of our garden.  I don't know if it's because the seeds are too old, or if it's because they are copies of copies (like Multiplicity  - IYKYK). 

We've washed our vehicles at the Property.  I helped the first time, but was lazy the second :)

I've been enjoying working at the temple on Wednesdays.  I started on April 9th, and haven't missed a Wednesday.  I really enjoy it. We get new "lines" this coming Wednesday. 

Roger helping me clean and wash (and vacuum) windows in preparation for our AZ guests. 

He also climbed a tree to cut down some small (5 inch in diameter) limbs that were getting in his way during mowing.  We can sure tell we are getting older, it is alot harder to do things.  It seems we always need to ask Zac to help with alot of things, and we don't like to bug him.  

Removed a few wasps nests. 

Had our asphalt redone by Ro Asphalt, owned by Peter and Ally Tonks Bridge.  They did a great job !  

 

We love it when Family comes to visit

Kings Peak Hike

On July 25th and 26th and 27th - These two were supposed to hike Kings Peak.  The highest point in Utah.  But then plans changed.

See that mountain in the very middle, in the far background?  That's King's Peak.  See Payson in the foreground?  After he and Landon and Kacey and the other hiked into "base camp" on Friday, in preparation for Saturday's summit, Pays and Lando got sick with back colds, so they ended up staying back at "basecamp" while the others went ahead with the hike. 

Not feeling the best 

This was the day before (Friday)
Landon, Kacey, Payson and friend. 

This is the whole group who planned on making the Summit.  

Probably a sheep herder's dog?  They are the best. 

Sick boy 

First day. 

There's a smile :) 

Quite the trooper  - even with a broken wrist.
