Park City 6/25/10

The last week of June 2010, our two oldest daughters went with the ward to Youth Conference. A river rafting trip. In their absence I took the rest of our family up to Park City. It was a great day to be in the mountains. Jetblue was having a party for our 10th year celebration. We had a blast on the Alpine Slide. Kindof wished we had done that a few more times instead of waiting in line for the Coaster. The Coaster was fun, but waiting over two hours was not fun.

Rock Wall...Cameron loves to do this!







Man powered ride. Cameron and Kaylynn went on with two older kids that were waiting in line. They thought this was alot of fun.





Tram ride to the top. Alpine Slide

Waiting for the Alpine Coaster

Wow!!!

Wow!!! I am way behind on posting again. So much has happened in our lives over the past year. I really would like this blog to continue being our family record of events. It is a nice way to share photos and information with family and friends. I will try to catch up quickly and stay more on top of this blog.

My NY Trip June 28-June 30

The last time I went to NY was in the winter time so I was very excited this year that my business trip to NY was during the summer time. It was definately a different experience seeing NY and not having to be bundled up warm in a coat.

During my last visit I was able to see alot of NY. It was my first time and I am very grateful that those I traveled with were willing to show me all around NY. This was my second time to NY and this time we didn't walk all around as much as last time (even though I would have loved to have seen more). We did venture through upper manhattan and that area was new for me. We walked through central park. I thought I took more than two pictures, but now that I am going through my NY pics, I found that I didn't. One is the green trees and grass area in central park and the other just outside of central park a Russian Cathedrial.



We did have a different experience on canal street. One that I don't want to have a repeat of ever. It was a little on the scary side as we were locked into a van while being shown purses. I am not a big shopper, but was along for the fun of bargain shopping on canal street. I did find some bargains on suveniers that I brought home to my kids and hubby.

Here are some pictures around Times Square.



We spent some time wandering around inside the Toys R Us building. The toys seem to be bigger than life there. Well see for yourself.









We even ended up by the wax museum and Ripley's believe it or not.







Here are pictures from my hotel room and one of the Empire State Building in the far distance (from the air tram), the JFK airport and Jetblue hanger.









I hope to one day take my hubby and family to NY. It really is a fun city to visit.

2009 Scout Derby

Cameron earned some bead and I believe an arrow point for 10 more electives in the bear book. The boys when they earn awards pick what type of applause they would like and Cameron chose watermelon. Here is a picture of his award ceremony and the watermelon applause.


This pack meeting was the pine wood derby. Cameron again enjoyed making a car with his dad. The pictures are not as good as those taken last year, but they will have to do.
