The many adventures of Colby.

Well, you could say I am boring--but Colby definitely isn't.  He's been living the high-life in adventures lately.

For his last "big hoorah" before the new semester at BYU, Colby and two friends decided to hike Mt. Timpanogos!  It was initially going to be for couples (aka I was going to go as well), but then I backed out, which made the other girl back out.  I may have missed out on an awesome experience, but what can I say?  I'm terrified of heights.
Luckily, Colby got some pretty good pictures of the adventure to show me so I wouldn't feel too left out.

They started the hike at about 3 am while I was still in my nice, warm bed.



Although I didn't go, I still tried to be a good supporter.  I made sure to send Colby with many treats and band-aids for the hike.


 They saw mountain goats!

 


They made it to the top!  It was probably good that I didn't go because these boys did the hike in record time--I definitely would have slowed them down.  They even made it back before the BYU football game that day, with time to spare! 
 
  


Colby and a buddy also put together a baseball game yesterday with a whole bunch of people who played baseball in high school.  They reserved a baseball diamond and everything!  It initially started out as being a ward vs. ward game, but then they had to recruit other people so they could have enough to play a real game!  Colby was so excited the whole week before the game--it was all he could talk about.  I'm happy it all worked out and that I was able to go watch my husband play some real baseball, along with the other player's wives!  Plus, as an added bonus, his team won!



Colby was able to relive his high school catcher days!




Although it looks like Colby has all of the fun, I still get my fun in.  No worries.
