Questar Gas Rodeo!

This last Saturday we headed down to Pleasant Grove to the Questar Gas Rodeo. I will tell you I did not know what to expect and was quite impressed. There were about 8 teams of 4 ppl from different Questar offices. The had to do things like back up a truck with a backhoe on it without knocking over the cones, had a spoon on the end of a backhoe digger and they had to pick up an egg and drop it into a pipe they also had to block of a gas pipe. It was fun to watch and have free lunch and meet the great guys that Brooks gets to work with everyday! And even better one of the Ogden teams won and they are heading to St Louis to the national rodeo for the second time in a row!

Memorial Weekend

The first of the month Brooks and I sat down and talked about the annual Beattie Family trip to Yellowstone. We had decided that due to finances we would pass on the trip this year. I was sad but we thought it was the best decision for us. We decided to still keep our days off and were going to just go to the cabin. Well Wednesday night Brooks's dad called and said we really want you guys to be with us on this trip. We talked over it again and decided we could make it work and we are so glad we did. We had a good time. Braxy had so much fun seeing the Bullos (buffalos) the Bears, elk and deer. We spent 2 days in Yellowstone park and then on Sunday we headed to Idaho Falls for the night We got up Monday morning and went swimming then Brooks parents treated us to Shrek 3 in 3d which was very cute then lunch then headed to Bear world which is a favorite of everyones. All in all it was a great time. I was very sad I was not able to go to the cemetaries with my mom especially to visit Grandma lucy but She understood!
The boys picked me up at work on Friday and we were on our way!
