{Catch Up #5- Four Weelin' Fun}

We've been on some fun four wheelin' adventures the past few months, and though each one deserves it's own post, I'm really trying to get through my catch ups, so I'm just lumping them all together... just think of it as smorgasbord o' four wheeling fun- K thanxs! The first little venture we took, we drug along my mama and my papa and headed to Beaver and then up the mountain. We had no destination in mind and randomly picked a trail and took off.

(not sure why that random Much better is floating there? Oh well, WHATEV)
Mom and I agreed that we defiantly like the trails rated "more difficult" than the trails rated "most difficult". Don't get me wrong, it's not that I can't drive it, I just would rather not.... but if I must, I'll suck it up and hit the gas (if we're going up) or ride my breaks if we're heading down, cause I'm a good sport like that. Also, a word to the wise, if you happen to be following my hubby and there are two trails, and one is a short cut.... for the love of all that's holy, take the long way! THERE USUALLY IS A LONG WAY FOR A REASON. (This I learned as we're heading almost straight up and bouncing over rocks, with kids riding with us?!?) Carlie got so tired, she fell asleep and Derrick put her in the little back section of his bike, where she promptly woke up, of course!

A few weeks later we planned at trip with our fantastic friends, Jason and Misti and their cute boys. ( I know this picture is random, be patient- you'll see why I took a Pizza Hut pic) So in case you didn't know, there is no Pizza Hut round these parts. So, we jumped on the four wheelers and headed over the top of the mountain and into Richfield for some pizza. It was a great little jaunt, that we defiantly should have started earlier, seein' as how we were still on the very top of the mountain when it got dark! Let's just say it's a much different experience to drive down the mountain in the darkness! Would I do it again.... Heck ya!
A few weeks later, we headed back to Beaver with Jason and Misti and all the kids. This time Derrick knew just where he wanted to go. He wanted to check out all the places he snowmobiles, minus the snow! (Twilight Girls, notice the Cullen Creek Road sign that I took a picture of just for all of you!)
Derrick and I chillin' while the kiddo's explore!

(Hmmm, I must have missed taking pictures of Brock and Kadyn? They were there!)
We had a great time, and definitely need to go again soon before it's too cold!

2 nice, polite comments! (otherwise, don't bother!):

When I became a mother.. the first thing to go was my daring-ness and adventure! I was so crazy and always thought "why not?" and now.. I am C-h-i-c-k-e-n. I feel like a constant nag when I ride with Chad and my brothers... but someone NEEDS to remind the boys that we have children to think of!

So glad you were able to go with Misti and her family. What fun.. and to Richfield even makes it better!

PS: Love the cullen sign! :)

It is so fun to see the pictures up Beaver canyon. It reminds me of my first 2 anniversaries. I can't believe it has been 3 years since I have been there.

I don't know if I could ride in the dark. You are brave!
