Flaming Gorge

Hey all! We are so excited for the GORGE! We just can't wait! Nick asks every day, "we go to Flaming Gorge, dad, to Flaming Gorge?".
Anyway, we are taking a trailer, and there is plenty of room to haul stuff...... So, if you need us to take some of your beloved belongings, we would be happy to. We are planning on leaving Tuesday around 2:00pm. So just get your stuff to us before then. Thanks!

Kyle and Kristy

FLAMING GORGE TRIP AGAIN

If you read the blog you realized that it ended rather abruptly - for some reason my keyboard just locked up on me and I couldn't finish. I didn't have much else to add. Just looking forward to next week!!!

Love Mom

FLAMING GORGE TRIP

Hi Everyone,

Good job on posting pictures Kim - it is fun to see the boys in their baseball uniforms. I haven't figured out the pictures yet - I think I will leave that up to you kids.

Hey Morgan - Have a great time at camp. I will be excited to hear all about it next weekend.

Now to our trip to Flaming Gorge. I hope everyone is getting excited. I can hardly believe that it is here and we will be leaving next week. Here are a few of the details that I have heard from everyone:
  • Mike and Kristy will be leaving Thursday after work, drive to Page or Kanab and the rest of the way on Friday. As of today, they will be bringing their boat. They will leave with us on Tuesday and leave Sat morning to head back home.
  • Alicia, TJ and family are going on Tuesday and leaving for home on Friday.
  • Kyle, Kristy, and Nick are going Tuesday and staying through the weekend.
  • Jenn, Fletch & family will be coming up on Wed and staying through the weekend. Fletcher is hoping to get a cast on his foot this week.
  • Kim, Mike and family are leaving Wed morning and also staying through the weekend.
  • Dad and Idon't know for sure if we can stay until Sunday yet. Should know after Tuesday.

I have the following food suggestions:

Tuesday: Lunch on the way up; Still deciding on dinner - any suggestions?

Wedensday: The Cerva Family: Egg Omlets, Hot Dogs, Spaghetti

Thursday: Davis Family & Kyle & Kristy: Cereal/Donuts, Wrap Sandwiches, Pulled Pork Sandwiches

Friday: Klinkowski Family & Mike & Kristie: Scones, Lunch, Marinated Steaks & Dutch oven potatoes

Saturday: Mom & Dad: Pancakes, Sandwiches, Hamburgers,

Sunday: Scrambled eggs, bacon or cereal or pancakes - what do you think?

Each family should bring a case of water and other drinks to share. I have large packets of orange gator-aid and I will buy lemonade to mix up in a water jug. I have a box of fruit leather, fish crackers, and a bucket of red vine licorice. I will also see what Dad can bring from work. I also have a ham that we could use for lunch meat and a turkey breast I could cook and slice for the sandwich wraps, etc.

I think it would be fun for the night you have dinner, to plan a family activity for later in the evening after dinner, fishing, etc. This would be for Wed., Thurs, and Friday. What do you think?

I haven't planned anything to float the Green River. At this point I think we will stick with boating and maybe a trip to the dam - can't miss the "dam tour"!!!

Kim and Mike have a camp chef stove and Kyle will bring his in-laws trailer. We have four camp sites - maybe we would want two more coleman stoves. We have two if need be.

Does anyone want to bring bicycles? We have our trailer if Cerva's would want to pull it our use it for packing any camping gear.

I am planning on shopping on Monday and will get together a list of things so as not to buy double of things. Let me know what snacks you are planning on bringing to share.

What else? Any comments, suggestions, or ideas?

Cost: The campsites are paid for and if the food should only be what you have to prepare for your meals. The biggest expense will be for gas for the boats. Dad and I will cover the cost for our boat. For the other two boats, I think it should be divided equally between the five families. We can try to be cost efficient on how much we travel in the boats. i.e. Do we want to go down the Gorge one day? I am thinki

This is my first attempt at posting pictures on the blog! Brennan didn't love baseball this year but he sure did look good! Brycen, on the other hand, loved tackling whoever had the the ball! And he didn't so much care if he got the ball, he was just in for the tackle! I don't have any pictures of Morgan playing ball this year - I feel terrible! She turned out to be a fairly good little pitcher! I still have one game left and then tournament play! So glad baseball season is almost over! Sure would have loved to have seen a Bee's game to top the season!



HELLO!!!

Hey everyone!!! Its Morgan here! I am going to girls camp tomorrow!!! I am so excited! I'm excited for Flaming George too! Well I thought it was kinda cool to say hello over the blog, so I'll see ya soon!!!! Love ya!

We will be driving up, we plan on leaving on Thursday night July 31st and we should be there on Friday afternoon sometime, just in time for the dinner with everyone. If you need any dental hygiene products let me know before we leave so I can gather them up for you. So check out our blog.mikeandkristiecrockett.blogspot.com Sorry Cerva's we dont have any of our photos saved on our computer from your trip here so we could not post any. But that book you send is sweet, thanks again.

Thanks to everyone for being so concerned about Fletcher. Looks like we are in for a long 8 weeks. We are still waiting to hear about possible surgery! Believe me, the foot looks a lot worse than this picture....We will keep you updated.

Bear Lake Photos

Here are some fun pictures from Bear Lake. Thanks mom and dad for all that you do for our family. We are so blessed to have the opportunity to take our families there and make fun memories together. The Cerva kids were so sad to go home. I must have heard them say how much they love it up there a thousand times this week, and how much they wish they could stay there all summer! Thanks again!


Who would have thought that one year ago, Megan hated boating! This year she was a new girl!
Brycen is nuts! He loves the water and has no fear!What a nice lookin' boat! Thanks for all the rides and pulls Jenn and Fletch!The water weenie was a blast, Grandpa was even nice to the kids! (He's gettin' soft)Check out Baylee's hair!Wait a minute...check out Skyler's hair!!!!The hike was fun - I think it should be a tradition, although I'm still itching like crazy! Dang Mosquitoes!

Snow in July??? Look close at the next picture and you'll see a tiny snow ball!


Thanks for taking us on the boat grandpa! It was a blast!
Grandma and Grandpa still have it! Way to go!
