The Bunks are back!

Okay, okay! so after a fun filled summer of Lake Powell trips with the best families ever, barfing our brains out with the flu, Adlee's baptism, and some more memories smashed in between there, we are back in Clovis, in a new house, and having a baby in hopefully less than 3 weeks!

CRAZY!
The Gang at Lake Powell, Goodman and Lords Family: 15 kids +19 adults= a heck of a lot of crazy fun!

The beach babes having fun.

How many dad-gum people can you fit in a boat??? legally??? who knows!

I take every opportunity to take a picture of my Dad in the water. This is it! The KING OF POWELL!

Brielle did probably 3 laps around the cove, she was great at knee-boarding

And little Miss Adlee wakeboarding, she was awesome! I'm sure her posture will improve with practice... :)

We always have to have a GUCCI picture when we go to AZ.

My little bro, Tanner, got his mission call to Buenes Aires South mission and leaving September 23rd. So proud of you bud!

It was awesome to be able to go through the Temple with him for the first time. Here is the 6 crazy kids in my family all grown up and I'm growing out too! yuck! My Mom, Dad and Granny Moody who brought about this lovely gang. I love my family.

At UP-Chuck-e-cheese's Noah figured out how to really play the game!

I love this pic! Tanner and Chelsea my baby bro and sis of the family, practicing Adlee's baptism song with the kids.

Round Two of Lake Powell: and so many fun laughs and memories again. All adults on this trip with Adam's family.

Adam and his brothers, Clint and Chad decided they needed to face a windstorm and see how far they could get with these homemade sails! started off like this and then a few hours later...........

THIS.............................................!

The Goofy smile and whale! but, having fun.

Can never go on vacation with the Bunker gang and forget to exercise........... seriously, pull ups, pushups, daily swimming. love it


The swimmers going at it.

We were so excited to be able to baptize Adlee in Arizona with all our loved ones. It was beautiful and we thank you all for being there and supporting this little girl. Major props to my mom, who planned did so much to get it ready while we were driving home from Powell. You do so much for us! Adlee will never forget it and talks about it all the time. Wow, are we really getting this old? She has been trying hard to be so good and hopefully that will last.

Our family..... don't worry this baby is coming out soon. AND, gotta love Noah's cheese!

Adlee in her baptism dress, LAST CHANCE had this great $20 buy!
sad to leave AZ, the girls always cry the first hour or so. but now we are back in Clovis and moved to a better and bigger home with a yard! yippy!



we had a fun 4th of July, barbeque at Westwood's (always lots of yum yum and fun), then to a most fabulous firework show! we are hanging out with the awesome Heath family.

Love this photo of Noah enjoying the fireworks but covering his ears. they were pretty loud at times!

OH THE GRASS!!!! :)

baby coming soon, I'll keep you posted, promise!

Adam meets Death!

This past weekend we went to Buena Vista, Colorado for a fun-filled adventure race that Adam did with my brothers, Clint and Brian. It was unbelievable and Adam said it was the hardest thing he has done in his entire life. (besides leave me to go on his mission :)

Here is my man and all his glory! I'm so proud of him.

We got there Friday afternoon and gathered all their gear and food for the next day race. They checked in that night and got their maps. We went back to our Bed in Breakfast (and the dogs) and mapped out their course checkpoints for the orienteering part of the race. Here is the boys in deep thought.

We were able to get a family pic before the race started. The mountains and snow was beautiful.

They started with a 3 mile trail run, then jumped into these kayaks to go down 7 miles of river. Adam rode solo and luckily never fell out. Here he is climbing the death steps to the biking section. To see Adam in action click on the links to the photos by the race photographer.

After the pain and fun here are the boys at the finish line. So proud of you guys! It was so nice to see them coming down the mountain alive on their bikes.

This classic photo says it all!
Thanks you guys for the good times. Can't wait for the next one!

a few fun things

A normal windy day in Clovis...... kite flying is a sport here. :)

Another Easter egg hunt.....in the house.

10 YEARS and ENJOYING THE JOURNEY!!

Shout out to the hubbs! I love you! Today is the Big 10 anniversary and it just gets better all the time. Thank you for making me laugh and putting up with my RED personality.... I love you!
(this pic was chosen to remind myself that this 8 pound weight gain month will come off.. ha ha)

Spring Break in AZ

I know a week late, but here's some fun pics of our family and friends in AZ. We had such a great time and wish Adam could have joined in the fun. Oh well, someone has to pay and someone has to play.... right?! Blizzard in Clovis that weekend and we were loving life in Mesa's 70 degree weather. Wish we could have seen all of you, we will catch you in June.

Our food addicton of the week, CHEETOOOS!

The girls with Nana's unbelievably beautiful roses.

Swimming with her Lily again!

Noah watching instead of playing, something very odd.

A lot of PHILLIN' the love again. We love the Chaffee's!

Noah and cousin Kate rockin' the bee

With a little help from cousin Kyleigh, Brielle lost her first tooth.

The girls not ever wanting to part ways with Lauryn and Kate. We will live close someday I hope!

Adlee and Brigham always having too much fun!

Classic pic! Emery isn't happy for our Goodman cousin picture, neither was my bro Brian. Hilarious now, not hilarious then! The kids are all wearing Jeruselem shirts that my parents brought home from their trip there.

In Grandma's arms and now happy.

Freestone park with our great friends Cardon's and Jackson's. We love you guys!

Adlee and her other "crush". They all had this game going the whole time.

My Dad and I took the grandkids out for a quick Boat ride at the lake. I am 31 and raised on a boat and still haven't really learned how to drive one, so we had to hang onto the dock while my Dad got the truck. I know it is really time to learn.

Future Boat driver!
