Conquering Mt. Humphrey's

Ryan and I got a quick night away. We hired a girl in our ward, Wesley Mowry, who is just about to leave on a mission. We decided it was time to hike Humphrey's in Flagstaff. We both grew up in AZ and hadn't ever done it. We were definitely not prepared! Neither had been exercising very regularly. The altitude really got to us. And, we got a late start, so we were trying to hurry the entire time. The sun set when we had about 45 minutes to the bottom. Luckily Ryan had brought headlamps and I had a bar of Ghiradelli chocolate in the backpack!
If you look closely, you can see Ryan with his arms outstretched on the peak.

Bear Cub

For the last several years, Ryan and I have been serving with the cub scouts, in different capacities. Ryan is currently "Master of the Cubs". He makes it so fun for the boys. He brings his guitar, makes up songs, makes the boys laugh, etc...
Here's Caleb when he earned his Bear Badge.

Nolan turns 2

Did I really one take one picture of Nolan's 2nd birthday? This is the scooter that the Martinsen's gave him.

Here's some more of his being 2. He has a thing for emptying soap dispensers. Guess he felt like his hair needed a good washing.
