buy fathers and sons (may 2016)

As usual this one has quite a few pics, but I will try to keep it short.

The boys had another great year at the BYU Fathers and Sons Camp! I can't remember if this is was their 3rd or 4th year, but regardless, every year has been fantastic and I'm sure they'll keep at it for years to come. 

They always love getting to spend time with family before/after the weekend at camp. This year was even more exciting since they got to be with little Baby Abbie:)--And of course Darren, Heidi, Grandma Dueck, and I guess I shouldn't forget Riggins since he is in the picture!!

Kevin sure loves his little sister, and he is definitely quite the baby whisperer;). 
Time with Grandma was delicious and fun, and Uncle Carl was nice enough to take the boys for a spin on his ATV. 

And then it was time for camp!
They paired up with this group of cousins to have some athletic fun. 

As soon as they get together the games begin, and pretty much don't let up for about 3 days straight. 

Learning from the (very tall) BYU basketball team is always fun. 

And dunking on lowered hoops isn't too bad either!

Playing football in Cougar Stadium is of course another highlight. 

Meeting some of the players ... 

And there's always more fun to be had as well: jumbo soccer, hike the Y, sightsee around campus, have fun with the gymnastics equipment, etc. 

Sunday always brings a special outing to Temple Square in Salt Lake City.

Where the boys tour around a bit. 

And attend special worship services and meetings planned just for them. 

This particular year, Mitt Romney (bottom right) was even a special speaker at one of them.

Such a great tradition for these guys. I'm glad they get to spend time with their cousins and dad, doing so many things they love to do! I think Brooks can hardly wait to begin attending with them next year!!

Number Five

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010

Baby Joseph

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
