Heather and Clint invited us to go to Ogden Trail Days on Saturday where Clint and his friend Vaughn were going to be putting on a little concert...so of course, we went.
I'll have my picture taken with Heather any day! Here we are at 8:30 am. Below is Clint doing a little solo with Vaughn and Devon on backup.
The whole group from left to right, Devon (back up), Vaughn (lead) and Clint (singer/ instramentalist). Vaughn has a great voice and has written some cool songs. We were their biggest fans of the day!. They played for 2 hours and then we decided to go check out the trails. Ogden actually has done a great job with these trails. I think they are still working on some of them but when they are finished they will connect for about 10 miles!
The trail follows along part of the Ogden river. There were kayak demonstrations and safety classes being taught this morning. Looks like a fun river to kayak on!
As we followed this path we came upon A hidden little beauty...Fort Buenaventura.
There is camping here and canoeing on a little lake (or a big pond depending on your perspective) and it is quite a lovely place.
The campsites are all shaded and grassy and you can even camp in Teepees! Fun!
Who knew this little bit of heaven was here? Okay, maybe lots of people know but we didn't and it was fun to "Find" this treasure on our hike. Our last picture as we headed back.This underpass is part of the newly completed part of the trail.
In the afternoon, back at home, we played a little bean bag toss. Here we all are taking our turns.
I thought I had a picture of Clint and Han too but they must have been deleted. Sorry guys! Heather and Kyle celebrated after making two shots in the hole...
Because Steve and I will be gone over Father's Day (We are taking Austin to California to the Scout Camp he will be working at for the summer), we decided to celebrate today with a barbeque and gifts. Forgot to take pics of the dinner but it sure was good! Kyle, Han, Austin and I gave Steve a gift certificate to Swan Lakes Golf course.

The trail takes you under 24th Street and then continues along this path if you go up river...which we did.
We came across this bridge and decided to explore beyond it, but first things first...we couldn't pass up a photo op!
I love this picture of Clint and Heather with the river in the background. Who took that picture? Oh Yeah...ME! It was amazing to us that we were almost in downtown Ogden and this little forest was nestled in here and we had never known it!

Heather made it with her new amazing Photo Shop. It turned out so nice!
It matched perfect in our front room. Here is a closer view.
Beautiful job Heather! We finished out the evening with a trip into Salt Lake where our favorite photographer Ryan took metro shots of us. We are going to be his demo family for his studio. These shots were great! Can't wait to see how they turn out! Wow! another funfilled full day! I love summer weekends!
Thanks again for coming to Trails Day! We had such a great time with you and I really think we need to go camping there. We had a lot of fun doing those metro pictures too! I can't wait to see them! AND I can't wait til we're on that billboard for our month of fame ;) I'm glad you guys like the picture so much-it sure was fun to make! Talk to you soon-Love you!
