A Parade, Race Cars & Bumper Boats

Every year for the 24th of July celebration, there are a lot of activities including a parade down main street. This year Hunter rode a float and if you are wondering why he was dressed as a dog...it is because he was on the Animal Control float. He had fun but was so hot in that costume.

There was even some time for a lap or two around the race track and some time in the bumper boats this summer.  Bailee was along for the ride in case Hunter needed a relief driver.

Hunter & Khloee

While Hunter was building a model car, Khloee decided she wanted to see what was going on. I think she enjoys chasing balls more...she looks a little bored in the 2nd picture.

Tennis

Hunter decided he wanted to start playing tennis again so here are a few pictures from his first day back.

Las Vegas Wranglers

On Friday night we went with our ward (West Oquendo) to the hockey game to see the Las Vegas Wranglers take on the Victoria King Salmon. The young men & young women sold hockey pucks & at the end of the 2nd period everyone who bought a puck was able to throw them onto the ice in hopes of getting closest to the center circle & win a prize. After the winner was chosen, the young men & young women had to go onto the ice and pick up all the pucks. I am not sure who won the prize but I know that I didn't win...nor did the LV Wranglers who lost 2 to 0.

Top of the Bridge

In January 2005 construction began on the Colorado River Bridge at Hoover Dam. We have watched it being built for 5 1/2 years & in October 2010 is was finally finished. We decided it would be fun to walk across the bridge & we were enjoying the view until we looked over the side & saw the ground 1,000 feet below us. Yikes...that is a long way down.

Bridge From Hoover Dam

These two pictures were taken from Hoover Dam looking back at the bridge. Hunter & I were standing right in the middle of it.
