Ragnar got sprayed by a skunk on an adventure with Derek and his metal detecting..

So we tried a trick from Austin and put pb on the wall.. it worked for like a minute.

The girls wanted to take grandpa treasure hunting, and luckily there were a few along the trail we were able to find on a pre-dinner walk.

Enjoy.

May 11/12

Lunch stop on our way out to Vernal.

Since we left early in the day this year, we took a drive up Dry Fork Canyon to McKonkie Ranch.

It was too rough for my mom but my dad came with.

Race day.

I had to defer my half entry to next year since that good ol' pneumonia basically killed all my training. I had to stop to breathe 5 times and each time someone would try to encourage me. I know they didn't know I'm still fighting a lung infection that kills people, but in any run I participate in, it bugs me. That's why I never say anything to people I pass unless I ask where they got a certain running item because I also want it.

Anyways, somehow it only took me a half hour. I was sure it was going to take me longer with how often I had to stop. Even with more and more people doing this run each year, somehow I still placed in my age group.. I must not know how to tell people's ages because I was pretty sure a lot of 30-35 year old's passed me.

Post race geocaching! The Field House Museum was free that day as apart of a whole festival deal. Bonus!

I wanted to do some hot air balloon rides but the weather was not kind.

May 14

I made a deal with a student that if he worked more on being an advocate for himself, I would take him to see this mural in Ogden at the end of the class. He has some strange fascination with the Mona Lisa... he says it scares him, but he's all about seeing it. Here he's high-5-ing her face..

Mallory and I.

May 16

Jaxson's play. He was a wickersham brother in Seussical the Musical Jr.

Remember that shed Derek made last year? Well, while cleaning up some of the extra wood ends, we now have an outdoor Jenga game (yes I know it's 3 per layer but when I was cleaning up this is how it got stacked).

May 17/18

State Track

We had 13 kids in 10 different events. The best showing at state since my first year. And 10 of those kids are underclassman. They brought home lots of medals, numerous top 15 places, and one new school record in the women's 800m.

It's a great time to be a Laker.
