July 4th FUN!

Well, sorry it's been a while since my last blog. To be honest I'm really not that sorry!.. Anyway> We had a great (AND BUSY) 4th of July. I was originally suppose to work all the way through the 4th but with smooth talking I was able to ge the actual 4th off. I had to work all the way up to it and then go in at 2 AM the day after but..I got the 4th off. The Nordfelt's , good family friends of ours invited us to come along with them to Vadauwoo WY. It's just right over the border:It's a little over an hour drive and the rock climbing is incredible! Brady and Erika are like professionals.. anyone is a professional compared to us! Anyway we climbed a section called the chimney or something and then we got to repel about 150 ft down it was amazing! check out a slide show:



All and all it was an amazing trip. It's great to have some really good friends that aren't wimps!

Scout Camp Troop 582

Well I went to scout camp. It was a lot of fun and I have some really good kids! It was at Ben Delatour in Colorado. Among the piles of merit badges that the kids earned they worked on a copes coarse which is like 20 ft up playing with ropes, canoing, Hiking, ad of coarse playing a lot of egyption rat screw. Anyway here are a few pics:
Great Scouts Left to Right: David Briscoe, Chandlar Kall, Dylan Edder, Walter Brink... Sorry if I didn't spell those right. I am lucky to just spell my own name right!
Brendon, Jack Pixlar and James Halgren taking a hike... Handsome fellas eh?
Dylan and Brendon on the Copes corse. It took most scouts around an hour or so to finish the corse. Dylan finished it in less than 10! that kid is amazing!
Pretty High Up! Dylan says " I don't think that my Mom would like me doing this.. This high!
Dylan and some other kid from another troop working together to climb this 'Giants Latter"

DeNae Pretty Girl & T.A.K

When i was younger my sister Megan used to do funny things and have funny sayings. Most of these my Mother didn't approve of. A few examples are: Pinching, honking, or "good-gaming" our butts. She also had plenty of funny sayings like T.A.K. These sayings in disguise could be said in front of out parental units and still have the same effect without the spankings. T.A.K= Tough A@@ Kid. Whenever I think of T.A.K I think of DeNae. Sure she can work 14.5 hour days climbing and pruning trees, Kayak, Mt. Bike, Climb, Camp and look like this:

But, after a quick shower I also get the beauty queen like this:

Even with a new haircut.. I am also noticing that we had Nacho Libre on in the back HA HA! I am the luckiest guy alive. I love my T.A.K DeNae,
The End!

The Kayaking Transport

DeNae, Blu, and I went Kayaking Yesterday at the Poudre river. It's kind of tough when you only take one car because you have to drive to the top of the run, then kayak down, then 1 person (usually me) has to hitchhike back up to the car and then drive back down and load up. WOW that was a run-on sentence.. Sorry Mom. We can't afford to take 2 cars anymore with the price of gas so here was our solution:

That's right. We loaded up the Waltons new scooter that gets like 100-120 MPG in the Element. Fit like a glove! While DeNae was rolling her eyes at first.. she changed her tone after she saw this:

Okay, Okay DeNae you hated it even more after this but, it was fun and we got a lot of honks and laughs. Blu said " I love Brendon.. he tries lots of crazy stuff.." A.K.A= Brendon's an idiot.. but I like to be one with him. Anyway it was a succesfull run and it was fun!

Love you all,

Vacation to Kentucky

Thats right we took our 1 paid vacation to Kentucky... Why you may ask... Because we wanted to... Okay you still didn't buy that. DeNae's parents Tim and Ruth Ann and her sisters Abby, Emma & Eve live there in Nicholasville KY. IN the picture Left to Right: Jason, Audrey (Who live in TN) Ruth Ann, Eve, Abby, DeNae, Emma and in the back Brendon and Tim.
It was a really fun trip! During the majority of the trip I spent the time making fun and beating up Abby, Emma and Eve. DeNae loved it because it "gave her a break".
Brendon Bugging Abby
We started out by just relaxing.. Novel idea huh! Grandpa Baxter was there for a day while we were. It was nice to see him.
Then we went to Red River Gorge which was only a few hours away and disproved all my thoughts that there was nothing to do in KY unless you drink burban or smoke tobacki.. here are a few pics and video from that:

Emma and Eve excited as always to be teenagers on a family trip.. HA HA
