Salmon Family: September 2008

We had a lot of fun this summer but it went by too fast.

Michelle and Family met us at the cabin on Memorial weekend and came back to Utah with us for 2 weeks.
Jace was baptised on May 31st and we celebrated at Red Robin.

We visited all the graves for family night and had tin foil dinners at the park.

We used the pool many times and Macie and Luke learned to swim in the deep water.

We went to see Indiana Bones at the Desert Star Theater, Footloose and Feeling Groovy at RMT, Cori Conners dress rehersal of Saints on the Seas, where Macie got her autograph on her CD Pontiac Rocket, walked and rode the Lagoon Trail.
We went to Jaron's school program where he had made a diahrama of and report on Daggett County. That's where our cabin is located.

We went to Flow Rider, in Ogden, where the kids learned to body surf and had lunch at Pizza factory. Then we went bowling at Fat Cats. We watched some people do I Fly. Mabe next year we will try that. Looks fun but scary.
We went to This is the Place Heritage State Park and learned about the pioneers and had a picnic lunch.
Mothers and daughters went to Park City to see the opening day of Mama Mia and shopped the factory outlets. Had lunch I think?

Sydney fell down the stairs, Macie cut her head open and Kyle almost drowned in the pool. How's that for excitement!!
For Grandma's birthday we took her to the Quilt Shop Hop and out to lunch at Archibalds at Gardner Village.
Michelle came back in July for 2 weeks and we went to see the Music Man at Woodland Park, Went to gateway to play in the fountains and have lunch.

Went the the days of 47 rodeo with Grandma, Michelle, and Travis & some grandkids. President Monson was there also and was the highlight of the rodeo!
Michelle and I needed a Massage after all that, so we did at Massage Envy.

We had lots of BBQ's and swimming get togethers. We went to a movie or 2.

Attended Farmington festival days Parade and festivities at the park.

Michelle and Mike left with Kyle and Sydney to drive back to Colorado and Andrew and Macie got to stay another week with us and we went to the cabin where they went tubing and fishing then they flew home all alone. Big grown up kids.

Our First Remote Controled Airplane

Do you like to fly airplane's well me and my cousin do. Today we worked for our grandpa and he bought us a remote control airplane. It took us 2 hours to put it together and adjust the controller. Then we took it outside to fly it. I threw the plane in the air and it did a barrel roll then nose dived into the asphalt. All our hard work had gone to waste. But we were able to fix it and try it again. Then my cousin threw the plane. It crashed again!!! So what did we do? We fixed it with duct tape and tried again. We got it to fly but as we got it to fly the plane dove straight down in to a field with sprinklers on. The water was so cold. We knew we had to prove to our grandpa that this was not a cheap piece of junk. So we put more duct tape on the plane and tried again. My cousin ran as fast as he could and threw the plane. The plane a.k.a. the yellow bee now not yellow any more from all the electrical, and duct tape with a splash of super glue. After many more attempts we got the plane to fly (again). It was working so great when it slowly lost altitude and crashed into a fence. It turned out that the battery was dead. Or else the plane would have stayed in the air longer. But of course we could not stop our bad luck.
