Best Vacation Ever

Joe has been slacking, so I decided I better take over and post some stuff. We recently had a great trip down to Moab and Goblin Valley. I had never been and had no idea what to expect. It was so beautiful down there, the mountains and the arches are amazing! We camped out one night in goblin Valley and then went to Moab. I wasn't to excited to go Camping on my birthday so went to a hotel the 2nd night to make me happy. But, the camping was great! We bought a huge blow up Queen size mattress to put in our tent :). The dutch oven cooking was so yummy and of course we had to make some smores! My Dad, Step mom, brothers and sisters and Sage, Skyler's wife came along with us and it was a great family vacation. We we pulled up home from the trip and Jakson said "This was the best vacation ever!" It was real sweet! Here are some pictures you can enjoy!

Days of '47 seconds of excitement!

Yes. Me. Joe. At the rodeo. For those who know me you know that you're about as likely to find me at a rodeo as you are to find a dollar in a dogs butt cheeks. I use that analogy because I actually did find a dollar on a doggy bum once. But that's a different story for another time. Erika did get me to go to the rodeo. Beverly is all bout horses and I thought it might be cool to see a cowboy impaled by a a bull horn. It ended up being a decent experience.
It seemed a bit overpriced and not quite as exciting as I was hoping. Nobody was even injured. Oh well. The highlight of the show was a cowboy getting a couple buffalo to climb on top of the his trailer. I'm sure it takes a lot of patience and know-how to accomplish something like that, but it's not the most exciting thing to watch.
The crowd was pretty entertaining though. I even saw one lady, er, woman entertain herself for the whole 2 hour show with what she could find in all of her different holes, crevices, and cracks.
I must say though, horses are pretty magnificent animals. Humans are very strange. Will I ever go to another rodeo? Most likely. I'm an easy-going guy and can find fun pretty much no matter what I'm doing or where I am.

Skyler and Sage Together Forever

My Brother Skyler Just got married on Friday. We are so excited for him and Sage. Its such a small world because we knew some of her family already but had never met her. Me and Joe went to school with her brother. And I went to School with her sister in law. And Sage was best friends with one of Joe's neighbors. It's kinda funny to think about how we never met her.

Skyler and Sage met on a blind date and she almost stood him up. They have so much fun together and they make such a cute couple! I am so glad to have another sister.

The wedding was beautiful! They got married at her dads house in Lindon. It was so nice having my mom and Cliff and all our cousins and family. Joe and Spencer had a good time decorating the car actually a little to much fun! AS you can see from the pic.

SLOGGER

It's amazing how much happens in a month. I have so many updates to make to the Gonzalez Family Blog and I am being really slow about it. I am just the usual blog slacker. I guess that we could call me a "blocker" or a "Blacker," no, wait, I think I like "Slogger." That's it. That's me. I am a Slogger! I don't feel too bad though because lots of us are. SLogger. Good term. You all heard it here first. It could mean SLow blOGGER. Or SLacker blOGGER. I should trademark the term. Be looking for new blog posts soon!
