Saturday morning came and the kids wanted to go for a drive. We packed up (dogs included) and headed to AF Canyon. It's so pretty up there...it's always one of our favorite places to go for a drive. I took the camera, thinking that maybe we'd have a chance to take a family photo. Well, after the 1st two stops the kids decided that they had had E.N.O.U.G.H.! At Cascade Springs (our 3rd stop along the way) they just would not cooperate. I got ugly, and so I headed to the car for a time-out. About the time we were leaving the canyon I was speaking again. (I really don't know if I'll survive their teenage years...seriously!) We grabbed a bite to eat and drove 2 miles down the rode to see some model homes (another one of our favorite things to do). They were beautiful! There was a stocked pond in this development, so the salesman told Brian to take the kids over and go fishing. Zach let the dogs off their leashes, the kids fished with their daddy, and I was able to just relax and read for a while. It really did turn out to be a nice day after all ;0)

Stop #1....not bad
Stop #2...okay, but it was way too windy
Stop #3...we looked thrilled, huh?
Yep...this was right before it got ugly

Brian took these pictures while I was back at the car having my "time-out"...
This was at the pond where they went fishing

I like them all!
Can't wait to see which one makes the card!
My vote is the last one all together. I like the leaves on the trees in the background.
Love to you guys...we need to talk soon!
I think they turned out really cute. I love that you put yourself in timeout. I so need to do that!
