Spud Days Disc Golf

A couple of weeks ago we made our annual trip over to the Shelley Spud Days. We love to go and participate in the Spud festivities. This year, Nate decided to invite some of his young men and join in the Disc-Golf Tournament. I decided to go along for the fun, but after some coaching from Nate and the boys, I entered into the women's league on the spot. I am sure glad I listened to their counsel because I ended up winning 1st Prize! That's right. I came home with an extra $40!! Nate came in a close 2nd place for the men's league. He thinks he is entitled to some of the money I won since he had to coax me into playing. I don't think so! I worked hard for that money. Okay...maybe not...I had a lucky day!

Mesa Falls

Over Labor Day weekend we had a fun day trip over to Mesa Falls with our good friends Trev and Shan. It was a beautiful day! We enjoyed upper Mesa Falls and hiked (well, walked pretty slow) over to lower Mesa Falls. The day got even better when we witnessed a crazy guy kayak down the lower falls. Thanks Trev and Shan for a fun filled day!

MONOPOLY

Nate and I had an ongoing game of Monopoly for a couple of days. He pretty much didn't stand a chance as I ended up buying almost everything. After Nate mortgaged off most of his property, he decided we should stop before I ended up taking all of the money.

I didn't realize how fun Monopoly really was!
