Time for an adventure....

We have to keep things moving around here.  That's what happens when you marry a man with a mild case of ADD and reproduce a child with a severe case of it.  If we don't keep things moving and interesting everyone gets a little ornery around this place.

We were long over due for an "adventure" so we drove and drove...... for 40 miles of paved road.... and then on a dirt road...... for 50 miles. 

... and wound up here :

 the huge hole in the ground we search hours for.....

....so we could dig for some of these:


Geodes! 

























An adventure it was.
And it isn't a good one unless you get good and dirty!

Momma included.

Brody enjoyed himself while we were out digging and walking around, but screamed the 1.5 hour ride of bumpy dirt road back home.  He has discovered that he can blow bubbles with his lips.


And dad couldn't be outdone.








Geodes weren't the only treasure we found out there either.  The scenery was beautiful.  I had a friend once tell me that Utah never had pretty sunsets like his beloved Arizona's.  I am stockpiling pictures to prove my case against him :)

Ok Brody already looks different! I need to see him in person and spend some time with him so he doesn't feel like such a stranger! And that one picture or Chaser...I could have sworn it was an old picture of Brennan! Watch out! Looks like fun, did you bring your own back-hoe for digging for geodes??
