Getting Out of the Heat!

This last weekend we went up to Show Low to visit Boyd's parents and attend the Beecroft Family Reunion. It was SO nice to be able to get out of the 116 degree weather that we have been having here in the valley. Ryeland had such a good time, he loved playing outside at Nona's house, roasting marshmallows, playing with Ryker and running around in the woods getting dirty.
Everytime we drive up to Show Low, I have always wanted to stop at this spot to get a family picture, this time we actually did! Boyd's Dad was able to take our most recent family picture - on the side of the road heading up to Show Low, just past Payson. What a Scenic spot! Love it!

Ryeland trying to make a fire by rubbing 2 sticks together. he must have seen it in a cartoon. He was so brave and adventurous this trip. he even went on the rope swing by himself!

Just a shot of some of the pretty foliage in the woods

Oh, these two. Ryker is getting so big...they tend to fight a lot still because of the age difference, but i KNow that in just a few short years they will be inseperable. They will be best buds, and the eldest grandchildren that will lead they way for the rest that will come. :)

Roasting Marshmallows! MMM!
Uncle Randy also made Dutch-Oven Muy Gooey. IT was so rich, but so good!

A Horney toad we found! Grammy's favorite!
