2012 Memorial Day weekend

We spent Memorial Day at the cabin this year.  The kids had a great time hanging out, fishing, playing on the swings, playing games, visiting with friends and family, and swimming.  One of their favorite games was invented by their Dad.  He named it, "show the branch who's boss."  You swing on the big swing and then kick the branch.  This is, apparently, REALLY fun for little boys.

Ashton at the cabin.  If you look closely,
you can see the stitches in his chin.

Xander, Chandler (not too excited about having his picture taken again), Salem, Sutton and Preston on the swing set at the cabin.

Preston getting ready to 'show the branch who's boss.'  In case you were wounding, Preston was boss in this case.



We fished at Wasatch Mountain State Park.  We haven't always had great success there, but this time the boys did great.  Preston caught three fish and Chandler caught one.

All the boys with the fish

Our two amazing fishermen

Fortunately for all of us, Jared grew up fishing, so he knows how to remove hooks, clean the fish, and even cook them.

Look, I'm even in a picture!  Fishing with Ashton.
