Can you find our house? 5 points (Click on it to make it bigger.) How about Mom & Dad's? 5 points The town hall? 5 points Toquerville Mercantile? 15 points The park? 10 points The Wal-Mart? 0 points Woody's pond? 20 points The highway? 2 points The stake president's house? 1 point (It's easy. It's peach.)
Yesterday, before making the girls work their tails off all day, we went on a little hike. It's always fun to get up and away and enjoy the view. I took a bunch of pictures, hoping to get a few I could print and frame. The girls have grown a little since last year.We didn't get anything frame-worthy, but we did have a good time.
The girls hiked higher than they ever have before. They think they're ready to climb over the mountain and down the other side. What do you think Ross?
<-- Here you can see Buffalo Rock. The girls named it Buffalo Rock because it looks like a buffalo. The buffalo is not a smart animal. (If you don't get that, refer to an inside family joke that's about 5 years old.) I think it looks like an alien. Matthew thinks it looks like this. What do you see in the rocks?
I (heart) nature.

I think it looks like the Alien manning the motherboard inside the ship in Independence day.
fun pictures. I found your house, mom/dad's house, the highway and the stake pres. house.
sounds like they are ready too climb anything they want to! I sure am jealous that you are able to go hiking in February, there is currently ice coating everything in cache valley!!
I just wanted to tell Matthew that i still have my t shirt with a buffalo on it, it says "The buffalo is not a smart animal"! best. shirt. ever.
Ross, If you look closely, you'll see that I am WEARING my "Buffalo. Not a smart animal" T-shirt in that last photo.

Do not read this if you are easily grossed-out. Booma, I'm talking to you.

Also, one little side-note about our hike. Cate came home with a tick! Gross huh? We're going to start watching for the symptoms: irritability(check), problems with concentration (check), problems with short term memory (check), sleep disturbances (check), fatigue (no symptom present). Whew!
I am like Ross and jealous that you can go hiking. It snowed a lot here yesterday so it will be awhile before we can go hiking up here in Cache Valley. I really miss being in nature (I don't do snow). I am very glad to see that your girls are out and enjoying it-looks like you guys have tons of fun getting out of the house (good job).
And I agree with Matthew that the rock looks like a face.
Oops, Toquerville Merc isn't actually in that picture.
48 points to David...I spotted most without the picture big. Oh well. I suppose I don't actually get anything with my points. I love the picture though.
I like Buffalo rock, has a better ring to it that Molly's Nipple.
I agree with Matthew-Eastern Island-found everything but the Stake Center! Austen is also much bigger. Sad but true story...once I left work to go get my hair cut, as I was driving to the stylist, I scratched the back of my head-TICK!!! Yuck, I quickly removed it and was so glad I found it and NOT the stylist.
sorry, I posted the last comment and had been looking at pics on our family site, so gross tick story....Christy

I got all turned around looking at that picture. It gave me a headache, looking for all that stuff. I guess you can tell, I found nothing.
Christy -- Ewwww! But like you said, glad you found it! Can you imagine if your stylist had? Now, that would be a good tick story.
David, sorry I don't have prizes for you to get with your points. Just that warm fuzzy feeling that you got more than anyone else!
(Oh, & that wasn't an offensive comment that I had to delete, I just forgot to proofread.)
I love the pictures and the memories of last year. It's hard to believe that little puffball in the picture is my handsome Austen. I love that hike up behind your house, and the view is one of my favorites. I need to come to visit!

I love the pictures, and I love the Lowes!
I hate ticks. I had one once, in my back. A story for another time, best forgotten, but I can't.
