One of them even had a baby! The girls would have loved to be there to see them!

Then we got into Hollister. Nothing eventful until Day 3. That is when the competitions started! First was the Tow Test, then Frame Twister and Mud Pit. Day 4 was the Obstacle Course. That was knarly. Stan was the key designer on one particular section. It broke 4 vehicles! Then they trucks competed in the Hill Climb, which I didn't see. Stan said most of the vehicles rolled over! Crazy! Then was the Mini Rubicon where they climb over huge boulders. The 5th day was the Tank Trap. One buggy spanked the Tank Trap in 3.30 seconds setting a new record.

The trip home was uneventful but we were so glad to be home!

So Begins Summer

So here we are. We made it through another school year. Kelsey graduated on the 24th of May with flying colors! Now she is focusing on welding classes at the Ogden Weber College of Applied Technology. She is very good and excited at the options this skill would bring her in the future.

Ethan has finished his 3rd year of school in the field of Political Science. He has a job for the summer and is doing very well.

Stan and I went to Hollister Hills, California for another year at Top Truck Challenge! Marin and Korina stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Bingham for 9 days. They were bummed they couldn't go with us this year. TTC was definately full of excitement this year. Lots of carnage! Our first day was eventful. We stopped in Carson City, Nevada to stay the night at a friend's ranch in the hills. The hills reminded me of Santa Fe with the houses all on 1-50 acre plots. Out there are lots of wild horses that roam freely. Our friend Jack even has hay and water out for them and they would come out to the homestead several times a day. We actually got some pictures of them!
