Spanish Fork Rodeo

On the 24th of July we got to go see a rodeo in Spanish Fork. Shelley's brother in Law does Professional Rodeo for a living so we got to watch him. Timothy had never seen Clint in a rodeo before so we're glad we got to go. He only did the calf roping for this rodeo but usually he does the team roping and bulldogging as well.

Provo Falls

On our way home from camping we stopped at Provo Falls. When you first get out there are the bigger falls which are very pretty. But as you walk up further there are a lot more. We kept walking up further and the waterfalls went on forever. It was so pretty. We highly recommend going there!

Last day of camping

The day we left was on a sunday so we were not able to go fishing. We took both of Shelley's families dogs. The big dogs name is Tangy and the small one is Cricket. When we started putting stuff in the car the big dog Tangy decided she didn't want to be left. She jumped in the back and we could not get her out. She sat there for about 2 hours while we packed up all of our camping gear. It was really funny!

We went camping last year before we got married. On the last day we decided to take a picture of us in the raft before we left. This year we decided we needed to do the same to keep tradition. This first one is from this year and the one below was from last year. We loved going camping but we both agreed we wouldn't want to go for longer than we did. It was the perfect length. We hope to still be able to go camping each year because it's so much fun!






Fishing


While we were up camping we got to fish. Shelley's parents have 2 rafts that we use to go out on the lake. Most of the fish were caught out on the rafts so we were glad we had them.







We both caught some fish. There was a total of 9 between the two of us. Tim hasn't fished that much before so when we went he realized how much fun it really was. Shelley would do the paddling the whole time so Tim could let out his line and not need to reel it in the whole time pretty much. We had a competition with her family to see who caught the first, the biggest, and the most fish up there. we're pretty sure we won the most!









Camping


The weekend after the 24th of july we got to go camping with shelly's family. We went up friday and stayed until sunday which made it 2 nights. We had a lot of fun sitting aroung the campfire and drinking hot cocoa.





We bought a tent from big 5 when we were still dating(but we already knew we were going to get married) We've been wanting to use it for a long time. Earlier this year we put it together for the first time. It was still a little cold outside though so we put it up in the house and had a inside campout.
This time we actually got to use it for real camping. We went and got new sleeping bags, an air mattress, as well as a fishing pole. We're proud to say we have at least some of our very own camping gear. Shelley's family stayed in tent trailer while only Shelley and Tim stayed in the tent. We're more of the hard core campers! We had so much fun up there. We went to the Uinta's and it's so pretty there. This is where Shelley's family goes every year. There are a lot of different camp spots there with lakes but we always stay at Trial Lake.
