Uintas Backpacking Trip 2008

Hm, I never posted pics from our Labor Day trip to the Uintas. I think I was waiting for Luke's brother Brady to send me all the pics they took...but wedding stuff happened, and I guess it was forgotten.
I also thing I may have blocked the weekend from my memory.
So, I have a few. Not as many as I would have liked, but then again, I was merely trying to survive this weekend...documenting wasn't really on my mind.
By the way, we went through Hades' Pass down to Granddaddy Lake (I think it was 10 miles round trip).

Here ya go:



Luke carried in most of our equipment. His pack weighed over 50 lbs. I'm too embarrased to share how much mine weighed.
Millie was very much in her own little world (that would be the "I'm engaged, and getting married in 2 weeks" world).

Lynnsay found a tree that totally made up for Brady carrying in a broken chair.

The lake was sooooo cold! But it was beautiful.

Me debating whether to get in the lake or not. I decided against -- it was too slimy :P

Luke :D

Campfire!

Pretty little stream.

End of Summer Pictures

So, busy summer! The last couple weeks we have been very involved with Luke's sister's wedding. I took all the pics at the wedding and reception. They turned out great. For more, visit: boomswedding.blogspot.com
This is a picture of me with the Boom family (rhymes with home) and my father in law, visiting the tabernacle up in SLC. They are wonderful people, and we had a great time together.

Sunset in our backyard:
I don't have cancer! But I do have a nice little scar forming.
We painted our bedroom!

After (but pre decor changes):

Yes, I did feel the need to share pics of our new dishwasher...
Pathetic, I know. But still exciting!


Our trip to Denver in July to see Disturbed!
