Vintonville - The life and times of a guy, his Lady-Friend, a Little Dude and a Little Sis.

It is that time to be packing up the families and those sweet temple clothes and venturing to good old logan where your favorite sister, unborn monster, and luke will be sealed for time and all eternity! Can you believe it has already been a year? It just seems like yesterday when we …

Joshua is a vigorous dreamer. He tosses. He turns. He kicks. And, on occasion, he talks. The talking usually comes when he’s coming close to waking up and there’s been more than a few occasions where we’ve found him up and talking or, sadly, standing in front of his closet crying. We’ve always wondered what …

Yes, this is, like, the umpteenth post involving Bear Lake this month, but the location is just incidental. We were up at David’s summer home for a little family gathering (if you think we might have gone wakeboarding… you’re right!) and found this monster (aka Shelob) after it had attacked and cocooned several of the …

That’s always been a motto I’ve lived by and one I think everyone can learn from. But wait? What does that have to do with anything, you ask?

Ok, who am I kidding. He’s hypercute.
But still, nothing much happening. And when nothing much is happening, Playlists get made. And when …

Surprise! We spent our Saturday spending inordinate amounts of time in a boat. It’s a sad fact that summer is wrapping up and we had our first low 80 degree day in a while. Despite it’s nickname as the “Caribbean of the Rockies” Bear Lake isn’t known for warm water– and while 68-69 degrees is …

So Ben’s with us this weekend “for to see”<sic> his newest Lady-Friend who, incidentally happens to live in our old stomping grounds: Smithfield. Seeing as how we totally don’t approve of Ben dating cute girls because we think sweet spirited girls need a fair shake too, we sequestered him all day Saturday on our boating …

Despite winding down a bit, it’s still summer. And in my book of summer rules, shoes are always optional. Joshua’s picked up on the rule and I couldn’t be more pleased. Of course, add “no shirt” and it looks like you may have sauntered your way down from the Appalachian’s Hillybilly quadrant/the nearest trailer park’s …
