Spartan Race 2012

Justin, Trent, Todd and Cameron did the Spartan Beast race in Midway.  They did the relay race where they each did a leg of the 12 mile race (Cameron and Justin did the same leg).  Justin, Todd and Trent then did the last leg of the race together and got REALLY muddy!!

 The Airforce had a booth there and if you could do 10 pull ups you got a shirt.  Jace was so tough he did all 10 pull ups!

Gerrick and Megan's Wedding

Gerrick and Megan got married on June 22, 2012.  It was a beautiful but very windy day.  They are such a cute couple and we are happy to have her in our family.  Tyson was a little stinker for pictures both at the temple and at the reception but we were still able to get some good ones.

Watkins Camping Trip-Lodgepole

 We had our Watkins family camping trip this year at Lodgepole Campground by Flaming Gorge.  It was beautiful weather and we all had lots of fun.  Everybody's favorite thing was floating the river.  We rented 2 rafts and then took Justin's drift boat for the younger kids/moms.  The kids all had a blast and nobody got stuck for too long. 

  Building a fort with dad's help

Fishing at Jone's Hole for kids free fishing day--last day of camp.

Easter 2012

This past Easter we had the whole Carter family come out to Vernal to celebrate (except Garrett, we missed him).  Stacy even drove all the way down from Washington alone with her 2 boys to join the fun!  I am not going to lie it was a crazy weekend with that many people in our little house but it was also a ton of fun!  We colored Easter eggs, went on 2 egg hunts, had a campfire, went fishing and shooting and had lots of air soft wars and the girls went shopping.   We haven't had everyone together for Easter for several years so it was a lot of fun!

Jace's Baptism

Jace got baptized and confirmed by Justin on March 24, 2012.  It was a very special day and the spirit was really strong especially during the confirmation.  We are so proud of Jace and his decision to be baptized!  He is an amazing boy!!
