RIP Froggy Swimmer

So now that I am kind of getting into this whole blogging thing I am going to play a little catch up. Last month we had the opportunity to go to Payson Lakes for our ward camp out. It fell on the same weekend as the opening day of the bow hunt. Bryton could not miss out on hunting with grandpa so we decided to go Friday night to Payson Lakes and go Saturday to Diamond Fork and meet my family there. The Ward camp out was a lot of fun. The lake was so pretty. Our ward had Family month in August so this was a great activity.




Bryton and his frog.
He named him Froggy Swimmer. He actually did not catch the frog himself a cute little neighbor boy did and then gave it to Bryton. He was sooo excited. He really wanted to take it home. Of course dad was not to happy about it, but between me and Bryton we talked him right in to it. Much of the rest of our time camping was spent, finding a home for the frog, playing with the frog, and finding food for the frog. When we made it up to Diamond Fork Bryton was so excited to show everyone his new frog. Uncle Zac was great to help Bryton find food for Froggy Swimmer. Sunday before we went home we wanted to go hike and see if we could see anything. I was a little worried about Bryton hiking I thought that he would get tired, so grandma came just in case. Adam and Paige stayed back in the trailer had a nap and played.
Bryton did great. He hiked for a bout 45 min. until the trail ended and then Grandma, Kade, and Bryton decided to rest for while. As you can see they were having a lot of fun. Grandpa, Zac, and I went up the mountain the rest of the way to see if we could see anything. I have to admit after hiking with them for a few minutes I was wondering if I should have stayed back too. I was in brush up past my waste and there are so many cows up there I just kept stepping in cow poop. But I was positive that we were going to get an elk. The only thing that we saw were sage hens. Which scared me to death when they flew out. It was a great time though. After we got back to camp Adam had everything ready to go ( I love him). Adam really did not want to take the frog home with us, so we told Bryton that we needed to go put the frog in the creek. To my surprise he was just fine with that. I think he was tired of finding food for him. When we had left to go hiking I had made sure to put him in the shade under the trailer, but we were gone for quite a while and I think that Froggy Swimmer got a little to hot. Bryton had no idea so Adam and him just went down to the creek and let him free. Bryton came up and said "He swam right down the creek." I was just glad he had know idea. It was a great weekend!! Here are some more pics.

Bryton's First Day Of School















I cant believe that summer is over! All I can think about is next year at this time my baby will be going to Kindergarten. The first day of preschool was great...this year. It was fine last year at least for Bryton but I cried and watched the clock the entire time that he was gone. The second day on the other hand was not the best for Bryton or for me. I had to leave him crying yelling "wait mom just one more question." What a difference a year makes. Bryton loves his preschool and his teachers so he was very excited to go back and make new friends. Last year he had two neighbor boys that went to the same preschool with him. Which was nice for the whole car pooling thing, but this year he was on his own. I was a little worried but he didn't blink an eye.
