Our Green River Snowmobile Trip

As part of a Service Auction in Relief Society, I recieved a snowmobile ride and lunch. Here is how it worked. Each of the women in R.S. donated a service they could preform or an item they had made. Examples: coupon good for hair cuts for your whole family. Jars of home made jam, someone put in a coupon saying they would paint the walls in one room in your home. The one I wanted was a coupone for a snowmobile trip and lunch. This is how the auction worked. Each of us was given a small package of M&M's . On the chalk board was listed the amount each color of M&M was worth. Green was 50 pts. Blue was 40 pts. Red was 30 pts. You get the idea. So we opened our M&M's and counted up our points and the auction began. The sister who donated the snowmobile ride and lunch was Beverly Walker and I won that coupon. So this past weekend we were the guest of the Walkers on a great day on snowmobiles! Kyle, Bev's husband wanted Kevan to come and they also invited the Cummings ( you kids will remeber them from Star Valley) to join us. When, Kendall Horracks, one of the teachers Kevan hired found out what we were doing he invited himself! He is a great single guy among the kids Kevan has taken under his wing. So off we went, the 7 of us. We left around 10:30 in the morning and we road until about 4:00 in the afternoon. They whole day was great fun and the dinner was barbaque spare ribs, cole slaw, home made rolls, and chocolate cake! What a great way to end the day.



As you can see Dad is enjoying his Polaris 800. He had so much fun. He was like a little kid!



This was taken just after the men lifted Bev's snowmobile out of the snow. She tipped over just above the tree trunk. Kyle and Bev Walker are the friends who hosted our little day trip. They provided the snowmobiles and decked us out for the day.


Yes, this is Kevan and Kathy on their 1st snowmobile ride in the Green River Lakes area. We are standing on Green River Lake

Our new Residence in Pinedale






Here is our new residence in Pinedale. A little home right in town. We hope to save $ by not driving to work, church, store, etc.

Moose in the Backyard




Mama and baby moose in the backyard. The baby is still lying down just above the close line. The lights in the background are the lights of the church parking lot.









Mama and baby Moose on the move. They are walking between the house and the Expedition and finally crossing the street.

Kennington Reunion on Freemont Lake in Pinedale Wyoming is this month!

O.K. Kids - We have been in the CABIN (HaHa - it is a beautiful home) and it is perfect. This is where you will ALL be staying. We do not need the condos and we will be saving all that money to use for other things at the reuion. We will make those decisions when you get here. You will have to go to the older posts to see all I have posted on the house.


This is a view from the front side of the house. As you can see the yard will be great for the kids and we can sit on the deck and watch them play! I wanted you to see that the lake is close but not so close that we have to worry. We were in the car on a road that runs between the lake and the house for the picture of the house on the hill. This is going to be alot more fun for the kids and us!




This is 2 views of the bedroom downstairs. The oldest daughter is coming out of the TV room and is headed upstairs. The youngest daughter is on the bean bag chair facing me. I am standing at the bottom of the stairs. It is a big room with only the bunkbeds in it.





This is 2 different views of the large family TV room down stairs. The original owner built the bar. Kirt wants to upgrade it to a soda fountain bar for the girls to entertain with! I know we can fit 2 queen blow up mattresses in this room easily. The bathroom is off of this room. It is really nice!


This is the den. You can see the corner of a couch. There is plenty of room for a blow up mattress and this can serve as another bedroom. There isn't alot of funiture and that makes it nice and roomy.

Kevan and Kirt visiting as I am taking pictures. The top one is the livingroom. The view out the sliding glass door is of the deck and the front yard as it looks out to the lake. It is beautiful. Kirt said the sunsets are unbelievable! The bottom one is of course the dining room. The sliding glass door in this room leads to another small deck with a table. Kind of like a breakfast nook.

A quick picture of the bathroom on the main floor. Not the one in the Master bedroom. Since the family was using that bedroom, I didn't want to intrude with my camera.


This is the family area that is connected to the kitchen. Nice and roomy. The view through the window is actually the front of the house that faces the lake. The yard is in the front of the house not in the back. As you drive up to the house you approach from the back, so you really don't see the front of the house until you park and walk around the driveway.
