Zermatt, Goats & The Miracle of Life!

A few weeks ago we went up to the Zermatt Resort in Midway. After brunch we decided to walk around a bit and noticed a fenced off part with goats in it. Mo loves animals so he went straight for it. Just as we finished feeding them and were about to leave one of the goats started to yelp and scream out loud. We couldn't figure out what was happening until she turned around and we saw she was having a baby! Seriously! Right there before our eyes this momma goat gave birth to two babies. When one of the hotel employees came up to see we told him they should name one of them "Mo" so next time anybody is up there check and see if they did! It was an interesting day and again provided some great pictures of Mo.

More Mo

If you are like us, you just cant get enough of this little man. He is just the most fun to watch as he plays and learns new things each day. These pictures are taken in the back yard of my grandparents. They have a hill on one side and Mo loved running down it along with his cousins. It was pretty funny to watch him try to stay balanced while going down. These pictures tell you how much he enjoyed it!










Ready. Set. Go!

Regulators..........Mount Up!

Over the weekend our family went to the other side of Utah Lake to do some shooting. My parents came along with my brother JC and his wife Beth. Jason owns a rifle and a few handguns and even bought me my own .22 pistol to shoot. Between all of us we had quite an arsenal of handguns, shotguns and rifles! We had a lot of fun blowing up 2 liter bottles of soda, clay pigeons, and a bunch of other junk we could find. With a former SWAT team member as a father-in-law and a Marine Captain as a brother-in-law, Jason held is own with them and its only natural the girls hit their fair share of stuff as well.

Setting up all the "targets"
Small girl. Big gun.
This was the reaction after anybody hit something and it exploded. Great entertainment!
Are you feelin' lucky?

Skill and technique refined through watching several hours of 24!

This kid is going to be a golfer!

If there is one thing we know about Mo, its that he loves to play golf! He is such an observant little guy and between watching golf on TV and watching Jason, he's developed a pretty good little swing. Whenever we go outside Mo goes right for his clubs and ball. It would be an understatement to say that Jason is excited about Mo's interest in golf. No doubt countless rounds with eachother are ahead!

On the real golf course!





More Summer Fun...Uncle Derek's Baseball Games


Mo has loved going to watch his Uncle "Diesel" play baseball. All he wanted to do was be one of the boys and play along with them. Derek had a great season and was invited to play on the city All-Star team, so we are really proud of him!
