Calf Creek Falls

We just returned from the McInelly family reunion in Escalante, Utah.  We had a wonderful time visiting with family and exploring the beauty of southern Utah.  We enjoyed our traditional hike to Calf Creek Falls, but also explored Devil's Rock Garden the slot canyons of  Peekaboo and Spooky Gulch, and a trek down the Hole in Rock.  Christopher also enjoyed hunting for Indian artifacts and we did discover some ancient pictographs and a couple of old Indian camps.

Horseback Ride with Grandpa D's New Horse

We had an enjoyable ride on Grandpa Dorman's new horse that he calls Dapper Dan and Cindy calls him White Cloud.  Isaac, Emrie, Christopher and Lottie came along as well.

Meet Bentley Thomas Davis

Matthew and Aubrey welcomed to our family their second son, Bentley Thomas Davis.  He was born at 8:45 am, weighted 6 pounds and 11 ounces, and he is 18 inches long. 

Aubrey and baby are doing just great.  Matthew and Cooper are too!

Graduation Times 2

Matthew and Aubrey graduated from BYU-Idaho this week.  They will be here for the summer and Matthew will be starting a new job sometime later this year for B1DMS, a software management system for automotive dealerships.

We were excited that Corey, Lisa, and Katelyn came all the way from Washington.  We were also joined by Grandpa Dorman, Dale and Chrissy, and Aubrey's parents Lance and Vicky.

Congratulations Matthew and Aubrey, BYU-Idaho Class of 2011.

Cooper Walking

Here is a short video of Cooper's first steps, at least those that took him across the room!
