The Wake Kite

This is Paul enjoying his new favorite toy: the wakekite.  This video shows him trying out Robert's wakekite in Bear Lake.  Paul liked it so much that he bought his own Kite to take to Lake Powell.  However, he was very frustrated in Lake Powell because our rental boat was nothing like Robert's Mastercraft and it had a hard time getting the kite to stay in the air.  (All that did was make Paul really want a boat of his own.)

Busy Summer

Here are some photo highlights from the last few weeks since Austin was born:

Baby Blessing Day:  Timothy Paylor, Austin Hatch, and Katherine Williams

Things have been busy here since Austin was born.  We had about 2 1/2 weeks of quiet and not going anywhere, and then we've been on the go ever since.  
  When Austin was 3 weeks old, we went to Stadium of Fire on the 4th of July, then we went to St. George for a week the day after that.  The next weekend we were off to Bear Lake for the Hatch Family Reunion.  We came home for 2 days before going to Lake Powell for the 24th.  The day after we came back from Lake Powell, Paul blessed Austin in my Dad's ward with 2 of his cousins.  This has been a fun month.  Luckily Austin has been a very good baby and does great with all of the traveling and action.
  Now I am just trying to catch up on cleaning and laundry before our next adventure.
