The Allen Family

Another weird happening to Ryker Allen in the record books. The other night he was being so wild and crazy, jumping around and would not settle down. I walked into the bathroom to get the bath going and he ran in to tell me something and smacked his jaw against the counter top biting his tongue. How in the world do you do that without any teeth? It instantly began bleeding and I could not get it to stop. Chris and I decided to take him to instacare because it was so long and deep but we figured they couldn't do anything for it. The doc checked it over and insured us it would heal and there was nothing they could do. Just give him Motrin and salt water rinses after every meal. Poor Ryker! This was the next morning and I was shocked it was closed together already. It is still tender two days later but he is doing just fine.  Papa Erwin, Grandma, Bret and Shay sent the kiddos some popsicles and balloons to get feeling better. How is that? Your brother hurt...

 We started out the day driving around where our camp was. She is such a Daddy's girl. Chilling at Wipe Out Hill with this toothless boy  Sleepy  On top of Uranium Arch  All she wanted to do was ride dirt bikes with Daddy  The day before we rode that whole mountain ridge  Hole in the Rock Best kiddos in the whole world!  Larkyn was so impressed she got to ride this  Racing up this big enormous sandy hill  Ryker gave out and came back to play  Made it to the top  Briggs had fun jumping back down  Driving Miss Daisy  Cooking hot dogs and marshmallows  Such a good little Mama  Changing her baby's bum  On the way home Mama Larkyn was multi- tasking 

 Poor Miss Larkyn got bit by a black ant as soon as we got out of the truck in Kane Canyon. She was miserable for quite a while. Now she is deathly afraid of any bug crawling around.   All she wanted was her Daddy to hold her. The three amigos chilling in Pritchett Canyon    Then it was off to play in Kane Creek  Water fun!  Briggs  Larkyn loved Kaitlyn  Randy trying a narly obstacle in Kane Creek  Day four was a LONG ride! I think we got on Poison Spider about 10 am and didn't back to camp until about 6:30-7 pm. We drove from Poison Spider through Gold Bar Rim and all the way back to camp. Then had to take a vehicle back to get all the trucks. Dora absolutely dominated the course. Her first time ever to Moab and she drove up some of the nastiest stuff. Way to go girly! The men who stole my heart!    Our crew ready to rock crawl  Chris had to do a...

Larkyn was really into the "Dinosaur" movie on our way to Moab . Ready for day one of our trip We are letting these two ride together? Cute kiddos   Uranium Arch Wipe Out Hill Tusher Tunnel. Poor Ryker didn't make it in because he was exhausted. I sure do love this handsome hubby of mine! Day two.... this diva in her sun hat and glasses. She didn't take the hat off the whole trip. Grandma got her the best gift. I kept saying she looked like a pilgrim. Crazy cute boys! Riding around Fins and Things and Porcupine Rim was exhausting. Tulsa Taking a little break...  to play in the sand! Getting ready to watch Daddy and Tulsa do Hell's Gate on Hell's Revenge.  I sure do love all my family  Hittin it!  Cheese!  Watching Tulsa conquer the Escalator.
