Julie's Life With Boys

I think this is the first time Caleb (3 1/2 years old)has even been sledding. It is also the first time Taylor has, but he is only 6 months old. We are playing in front Nate and Kelley's house. The video includes cousins Kanon, Joseph, Adam and Ian and uncles Nate and Ben. Cousin Amelia had already gone inside before I got to take a picture. Caleb had a great time!

It's almost a rule in our house that Caleb eat a spoonful of peanut butter in the mornings. It is based on theories of "priming the pump" and the glycemic index. Let's just say it is as good as medicine for our dear sweet Caleb in the morning. This is a picture of Christmas morning peanut butter medicine. We all had a spoonful and a glass of orange juice before presents. Those two items might have cancelled each other out!

A week ago Josh and I went on our annual executive retreat, wherein we plan our family goals for the upcoming year. For lack of funds we decided to go camping. We had heard about a fatal bear attack in American Fork canyon, but we had no idea where it had happened in the canyon. There are many places to camp up there. We chose a pretty place and set up camp near dusk. I have to admit I was a little nervous. During the night we could hear bears. That made us a little nervous. But it wasn't until the next morning when I really felt scared. Every tree in our campsite was shredded by bears as high as I could reach. It was like a horror film. It wasn't until we got home that we were informed that the bear attack was in Timpooneke, the section we had camped in.
