So I obviously don't know how to do the slide show. If anyone could give me any pointers that would be great.

Our trip to Orderville, Utah
This year for the 24th of July we went down to Southern Utah, Orderville to be exact. James' family owns the home that his grandfather grew up in. We go down there at least once a year. We have so much fun! We have to make our trip to the Coral Pink Sand Dunes, Rock shops, and any other hiking adventures that we can think of.
Every year we have to do the Coral Pink Sand Dunes. Now that the kids are getting bigger and know what to expect they have so much fun. They like to try and find lizards. This time the younger kids are the ones that found the lizard.
Darren brought his 2 four-wheelers, the kids had so much fun ridding them.
This year we decided to hike Red Hollow. It's alot like the narrows. Tall mountians on all sides. The kids had fun trying to carve their names in the rocks. They loved the white sand at the end of the hike.

Cub Country
So this is what happens when your computer has issues. Our family computer was doing crazy things so I only has my laptop which doesn't have any of my pictures on it. So here is what we have been doing for the last two months.
Brett went to Cub Country on July 11th and 12th. I went with them on Friday and James went with them on Saturday. We had lots of fun! He learned about stars and all kind of things about the galaxy. He played did a frisbee obstacle course, a regular obtacle course. He got to carve something out of soap, with a real pocket knife. They shot off "water bottle rockets". He shot a bow and arrow. All in all he had a great time, and so did all of the mom helpers.Learning all of the rules to shoot a bow and arrow.
Getting to shoot the arrow. Brett was a pretty good shot. At least he hit the target.
Playing a silly game. They used their fingers as swords, to see who could win the battle.
Doing a frisbee obstacle course. It was fun watching the boys try to throw frisbees under, over and through things.
