In the meadow we can ride sleds and make mischief. Or build a snowman. #winter #snow #mygirls #cousins #TimberLakes #vsco #vscocam

Merry Christmas from us to all of you. 2020 was a trip and a half, but we're grateful for those we love and those who love us. #MerryChristmas #Christmas #family #christmaspjs #onesies #vsco #vscocam

Happy birthday @abrahamshazam. Just spent a few months in OR and one of the best parts was getting to see you every day, just like when we were little people. Looking forward to more adventures with you, and this time we can drive. But let's keep the matching shirts. #happybirthday #brother #vsco #vscocam #polosandbackpacks

Walked around my old grade school with my youngest. Shared memories, feelings, and thoughts that I hadn't touched in years. Sometimes looking back is like looking through a fog. #mygirl #memories #Oregon #memorialbulldogs #mcminnvilleoregon #home #fog #outforastroll #vsco #vscocam

Around 10 years ago, silly filters and all. Happy Anniversary, babe. 14 down and you told me you wanted to make it to 60, so hold on for the ride. #happyanniversary #marriage #manandwife #saymanandwife #oldschoolfilternonsense #family @amylynnstudios

Hammocks and cabins. Like peanut butter and jelly, oil and vinegar, Sonny and Cher, coconut oil and banana hammocks. Some things just go together. #cabinlife #hammock #mountains #cabin #freshair #trees #blueskies #getoutsideandstayaway #covidcopingmechanisms #vsco #vscocam #Utah #TimberLakes

Get out, stay away, and play, Utah. Mineral Basin had no crowds, fresh air, cool water, and plenty of space to forget for a minute about pandemics, politics, and problems. I'm proud of how these three girls have handled social distancing, online schooling, wearing masks, and doing what they can to protect themselves and those at risk around them. 2020 has been a trip and a half, but I've been lucky to spend so much time with my girls. #MineralBasin #AmericanForkCanyon #Utah #getoutsideandstayaway #socialdistancing #ilovenature #mountains #mountainlife #minutesawayworldsapart #vsco #vscocam #family #mygirls

I love my country. But, like with the people you love, sometimes love means acknowledging flaws, mistakes, and problems. We can do better, we will do better, we are doing better. Flawed individuals with great ideas started this nation, and flawed individuals with just and moral dreams are trying to make it better in this time of turmoil. Black Lives Matter, defund and demilitarize the police, wear a mask, justice for Breonna Taylor(and all victims of police brutality), elevate BIPOC voices, and end racism now. We can make my (our) country the "shining city on a hill" that Kennedy, Reagan, Obama, and others have said we should be. #happyfourthofjuly #america #dreams #cityonahill #bebetterdobetter

It's fire season in Utah. Closely associated with Idiots with Fireworks season. Midnight across the lake makes for some amazing views. #knollfire #saratogasprings #UtahLake #wildfire #nightime #latergram #Utah #utahwildfires #vsco #vscocam #dontbestupidwithfireworks

Happy Father's Day to this guy. I'm sure he's honored that I was the one that made him a father, and I also know just how much I'd like to be just a fraction of the father he's been to me. #happyfathersday #dad #rolemodel #fathersday #vsco #vscocam

This future star turned 8 today. She's vibrant, powerful, loving, deeply caring, sweet, crazy, and all kinds of wonderful. I'm lucky to be her dad. #mygirl #queenvictoria #happybirthday #birthday #oneofmythreefavoritedaughters #vsco #vscocam

Likes : walks. Long, short, on the beach, in the desert, not really all that particular. Also likes sleeping, eating, and gnawing on things. #puppy #mydog #doggo #dogsofinstagram #LasVegas #latergram #dorkie #vsco #vscocam #hikingwithdogs

Had the honor and privilege of visiting Omaha Beach recently. Standing there, imagining what those men and boys went through, some making the ultimate sacrifice, I could only be grateful for the servicemen and servicewomen that were and are willing to give their all for our freedoms. #MemorialDay #OmahaBeach #France #latergram #vsco #vscocam
