SNOW DAY

We got about 8 inches of snow a couple weeks ago and had a SNOW DAY.  Kara and I went outside and built a snowman.  Two days later - this is what he looked like.

Our trip to Utah for Thanksgiving

This was just 1/2 the tables set up for the Carlson Thanksgiving.  We had it at Rob's church. Almost 80 of us.

4th of July Kent and Wendy Reunion

Over the 4th of July we had our own little family reunion. We had all our kids and grandkids, plus Kent's mom with us.  Here Jessica is reading.   Below - Claire and Paul playing in the water.

Watched the fireworks in Crouch

Gavin looked so funny with the licorce bucket on his head.

We had a Mortensen family band made up of grandkids.  It was so cute!  Anne got the little ones to sit and play - they sang Christmas songs - too funny!
Since the guys went on their 4 wheeler adventure, the girls went and saw Wizard of Oz at Starlight Mountain Theater.  We didn't take pics there - but it was a good time.
The guys had fun too, but came back to camp pretty somber, because Carl rolled his 4 wheeler, which landed on top of CJ.  CJ was scratched and bruised, but Carl broke his wrist.   That was the only downer.
