Mt Ruth standing at 7200 feet in the Pacific Northwest is one of the most beautiful climbs ever! Four couples went which included Mike and Kerrie (the planners), Carlen and Matt, Leslie and Greg, myself and Jeff. It was a twelve hour climb which started about 8am. We were greatful to our other friends the Mathews who graciously offered to let us stay overnight in Bellingham prior to the climb. The last part of the climb included a glacier where we roped up with crampons and ice axes. Always exciting! A truly majestic climb!

First day of School!
Brooke started third grade this Fall and a day later Canyon was very brave and started Kindergarten. Both have adjusted very nicely. For Brooke, the first day was about making a fashion statement! Everything coordinated including the hat. Her fashion Diva cousins helped shop with us when they were here visiting. As for Canyon, he was very excited and very nervous. As we stood at the bus stop he pulled me down, wrapped his arms around my neck and said,"Mommy, I might forget about you while I'm at school because I'll be having such a good time." I replied, "That's OK buddy, you go have yourself the best time ever!" Too cute!
Lake Powell
The beginning of August we flew out to Salt Lake City and then drove with the Harmer family to Lake Powell. The weather was perfect and the company was too!
