Eli blowing out his candles.
On our usual route to AZ over the Hoover dam we ran into some dam traffic, so Oliver got to sit on my lap for a while (i.e. we weren't moving). I hate dam traffic. Ha ha. That never gets old. They are doing a lot of dam construction too. Yep, still funny.
Noah driving Pappa Markham's (Liz's mom's father) little 12', 6hp fishing boat that we used to do some serious Trout fishing. You've got to love northern Arizona's trout lakes. Heaven.
Taking the family out for a little mid-afternoon boat ride. It was slightly overcast. It was so relaxing and fun for all. Oliver is sleeping in his car-seat at my feet (out of camera view).
14 hrs of driving, mucho dineros spent on snacks, bait, lures, fishing licences, etc, 5 solid hours on the water = ONE TROUT. Definitely a hit to my ego. Them fish just wernt bittin' I reckon. We threw everything at 'em, but we had a blast out on the water. Brandon Tackett (Liz's sister Catherine's husband) went out w/ Noah and I for some early morning Memorial Day fishing that won't soon be forgotten.

good post hunny. That was a fun weekend. Thanks Tacketts and papa and gma.
They will remember the time with you instead of the fish then. You can always talk about the one that got away.....family time is the best.
Totally missed Eli's birthday. Sorry I'll get something in the mail this week. We missed visiting with you guys while you were down. Looks like a fun fishing trip.
Man, that Oliver is one stinkin cute kid!
