Hurricane, UT

We took a few days to visit J.J.'s brother Rob and his family in Hurricane, Utah to relax, golf, swim and play.
Aaahh. What a way to start a vacation! - Paul and Rachel

HA! YOU'RE CAUGHT!! A glimpse into the future about 13 years from now. - Claire and Emilia

We went out on Rob and Cornelea's boat to Sandy Hollow reservoir to swim and ski and play.
You can't fall out of the boat if you can't move. - Isa

Nico takes charge of the front of the boat

I can see band practice with the flag team already! - Claire

Watch out Paul that sun might touch you! - Paul and Rob

"I'm just a tad pole now, but I'll be swimming before you know it." - Isa

Beach Bums - Claire and Millie

"Let me show you how it is done, Daddy." - Claire and Paul

"Are we done yet?" - Millie

Anyone want to come join us for a round?

Don't worry, Claire will take care of your tracks in the sand trap.

Watch Nico throw some signs on the course.

Emilia modeling the new line of golf wear! I think it will catch on quick.

I thought Claire was asleep in here somewhere!

There she is!

Mornings in Hurricane.
"Don't you wish you looked this beautiful in the mornings?" - Nicolette

Did you see my owie?

Isa not getting into anything.

Claire, Rachel and Millie - Watch out Rachel, these two look like they may be up to something.

We took a day trip on our way home to Flagstaff to Buckskin Gulch and Glen Canyon Dam with Rob, Cornelea, Nicolette, Emilia and Isabela. Was it ever hot!!
Paul, Millie and Claire wondering, "What's up there?"

Amazing scenery.

Millie, J.J., Claire and Nico in "The Gulch".

Paul and Rachel on her first big hike! Now this is the way I want to hike (like Rachel, not Paul)

How can you get lost in here?

Nicolette the pioneer. She is an amazing hiker, never once complaining on the long hike in the heat.

Rob and Isa taking a break on the big hike.

Millie, Nico and Claire in Buckskin Gulch.

We stopped at Glen Canyon Dam on our day trip and Claire, Millie, Cornelea and Nico looked precariously over the edge of Glen Canyon Dam.

It's a long way down. Luckily we didn't lose anyone.

Paskett Family Reunion

We attended the Paskett Family Reunion in Beaver, Utah this summer. We camped at the KOA, swam, ate cheese and just enjoyed meeting and visiting with family.

Two Cool Cats - Claire and her cousin Andrew Walker

It's never a Walker family outing to a lake without throwing rocks in the water.

Jason Walker, Claire and Grandma Walker - Jason found lots of little snail shells for Claire while walking along the edge of the water.

Gordon Walker, Andrew and Grandpa Walker
