Oquirrh Mountain Utah Temple

We all really enjoyed going to the temple. The baptismal font was the funnest to see for the boys. Aaron got some extra tickets so Eric, Josh, and Melissa were able to come with us. And all three of them beat us there. Eric helped me by holding Emmett. Then as time went on Emmett's diaper got so big I wouldn't dare give him to anyone, in fear of wrecking their clothes. It is the best when I can be with family. We love that Eric lives in Utah now. And we love doing things with Josh and Melissa too. Because of our babysitting need we don't get to the temple very often and walking through the Oquirrh Temple made me ache to go.

Friday and Saturday before we blessed Emmett, Melissa and Joshua came to play. We first celebrated Melissa's BIRTHDAY! Then we took off to play at Bear Lake and eat good food in Garden City at the famous LaBaus. I love my little brother Joshua and am my love for Melissa continues to grow. Sadly, they had to leave on Sunday, but Stephanie, Zach, Scott, and Cheyenne stayed to play.

On Monday Aaron took all the boys up Bearch Creek Reservoir. It was boy heaven, with a endless amount of rocks to skip. They even roasted a few hot dogs and climbed a few mountains. Tuesday we went swimming in Evanston because Bear Lake would have been too cold. It rained most the time they were here. Every other moment they had, they were at the dirk track. Zach and Scott brought their bikes and so all five of them would take off to the dirt track when they could. Stephanie and I enjoyed watching these five boys become best friend. They really truly treated each other with respect and love the whole 4 days. I personally am glad my boys have these cousins to help them in life.

Everyone that was able to come to Emmett's baby blessing. It was a beautiful day.

T-Ball and Softball Season

Who says the picture can't sit down. Cameron was ready for every batter.

More fun at Bear Lake. This time we went with Rachel, Aaron, Bella, and Isaac. The water was perfect and so was the weather. Aaron, Taylor, Cameron, and myself all went out in the deep part and jumped in head first. OH man, it felt like I washed off all of winter and left it there in the lake.

"ON YOUR MARK. GET SET. GO!"

Here we are at the Woodruff Testicle Festival. I always forget how early it is in the summer. Sorry I didn't get a chance to tell anyone of you about it soon enough, so you could join the fun. Taylor, Cameron, and Mason all took their turn at trying to catch a rabbit. Taylor also tried to catch a tag on a goat and then a chicken later too.

Cameron in is the yellow shirt and Taylor is in blue.

This poor goat didn't know what hit him. Taylor is right out front.

Do you see Mason? Do you see the goat? I think the goat had the upper hand on this group.

Taylor wanted to Bustin Buck this year. So we signed him up, brought a helmet, and then Aaron took him over when it was time to ride. The sheep didn't like Taylor on his back and started to jump and move inside the shoot. Taylor looked up at his dad to see if this was ok and to see if he is safe, even though he feels SCARED TO DEATH. When he looked at Aaron's face and saw that he was more scared then he was, they both just about cried. Aaron asked Taylor one last time "are you sure you want to do this" Taylor screemed "no, get me off." So Aaron pulled Taylor off as fast as he could before the shoot opened. Here is a picture of the sheep Taylor was on. And then the next picture is of Taylor on the gate safe and sound.

We all had a lot of fun all day and are glad it's summer time in Woodruff, so we can play play play.

Emmett's Baby Blessing

We are blessing Emmett, in Woodruff, on June 7th. All are welcome to join us. You can stay for the week or just the day. Let me know so I can get a head count. Sacrament starts at 11:45. Lunch will be served at my place after church.

Bear Lake

SUMMER IS HERE!!!

Yesterday on May 17th we went to Bear Lake and it was great. Taylor Cameron and Mason all swam around. The water was still a little too cold for Aaron and I, but we got wet up to our knees. Emmett slept the whole time. We all fight over who's turn it is with the skim boards, so we better buy another one. When Grandpa Richard flood irrigates this weekend we are going to play again with the skim boards. That should be A LOT OF FUN. With the perfect amount of water and lots of cushion for when I fall. Everyone is welcome to come stay and play at Bear Lake with us this summer.

How would you define masculinity? Is a man masculine when he opens a door for his wife? Is he still masuline when he opens a door for another man? Here is a picture of our back yard today. Cameron, Mason, and some friends jumping on the trampoline. Then one of them started to cry so Aaron stopped what he was doing and went over to give comfort to them and dried their tears. Is that masuline?



I believe 95% of the population has a misconception of what it is to be masculine. I believe my husband shows the same kind of masculinity that Christ did. Aaron blows me away at how awsome of a man he is. I hope to post more pictures of Aaron. To brag about him a little and how incredible he is.

Emmett Hull
born Saturday April 25, 2009 at 1:30am

There are a lot more pictures out there. I hope to round them up and post more soon. We have all fallen in love with our new member of the family. Taylor wants to hold him all the time. Which is not Taylor's personality. I am so glad he has taken to him so fast and so much. Cameron wants to be close to him and stroke his head, but not hold. Cameron also has told me that Emmett is going to grow up to be just like him. Mason has become the BIG brother and tells me all the time that he is big and Baby is small. Mason hasn't gotten the name down yet so he calls him Baby. Before we came up with the name Emmett, Cameron named him Skippy John Jones at school during sharing time the week before. So when Grandpa starting asking for a name for their new brother Cameron and Taylor called him Skip.

Everything is going good with us. Thanks to a wonderful husband that really takes good care of us all and the house at the same time. We hope to see you all this summer. Join us any weekend, we will be out camping somewhere. Love, The Hulls a family of 6 now
