Top Of Utah Marathon






Quite a few months ago Tyler decided
that he wanted to run a Marathon. He Thought
it would be a good goal to run the 26 miles
while he was 26 years old. So this past
weekend we flew up to Utah so he could
run in the Top of Utah Marathon. He ran with his sister
Tiffany, while Mom and I waited at the finish line.
With three black toenails that are about
to fall off now, and extremely sore muscles...
he finished the race! Way to go Tyler, we are so proud of you!!

Zions Ponderosa

We had our Butler get together this past weekend up at Zions Ponderosa. My brother Scott and his wife Carynn are working up there for the Fall and were able to get us an awesome deal. (Thanks again Scott and Carynn)
We took Maycee on her first hike up to Angels Landing. Boy was that a story in itself. I forgot to pack any extra diapers and didn't realize this until we had a major blowout on the tram ride up to our hike. I didn't really know how bad it was until we reached our stop and I took her into the bathroom to see what I could do. There was no hope! By sparring you too much detail I'll just say that poop was eveywhere!! Luckily Daddy came to the rescue and donated one of his shirts that we wrappe her up in (still minus a diaper) for the 4+ hour hike. Maycee and Tyler bothe were a little damp, but we like to say that it was just sweat...right. We finished the hike and made it back down to the car to get a nice clean diaper. Ah the memories.


There were so many activities that Scott was able to hook us up with. We all did a little rock climbing including Maycee.



Here we are doing the zip-line. We even got Mom to do it (with a little push from Scott off the tower) WhooHoo... GO MOM!




Scott took us on a 4 wheeler ride up to the top of the mountain. It was really fun and had some great views.
