Fire on the Mountain

The Pots and Frye Mesa caught on fire the day after we went there. J.T., my cousin Jennifer's boyfriend, is a hot shot up her and was at the fire. He came over and we showed him our pictures of our family outing and he said that the car that Jared is by is completely charred and all the trees by the pots are burned up. It is so sad, it was such a beautiful place.

The Pots with Jared

Jared came up to visit us and we went up to Fry Mesa. We had a blast. A little further up on a very rough road we went to a place called the Pots. There are water slides that you can climb up to and at the very end is this waterfall. That is where we are playing at. It was a beautiful spot. We did have a scary thing happen though. I was holding Mayley and watching the kids play in the water while Wes and Jared went to expore the water slides up the hill. All of the sudden Colton got taken from the water and was being pushed closer to the waterfall. I yelled to Briley to get him but it was to late. He went under the water and seem like forever that he was under until I could get to him. I had to set Mayley down on all the river rocks and jump in after him. We cryed for a little bit and was grabbing his ears. He isn't suppose to get his head under water, because he has tubes in his ears. I started calling for Wes to come and help me but he couldn't hear me because the waterfall was to loud. He is okay and it ended up turning out to be a fun family outing.

Family Outing

Last Saturday we took a trip to Frye Mesa. The weather was perfect but the water was still really cold. It should be because the water is the run off of the melted snow on Mt Graham. It is beautiful up there and it is only about a half hour from our home. We will be taking alot more trips up there this summer. Maybe even camping.
