Fun....Fun....Fun....

Slish.....Slash.....

Sandy Point
Owen and Olivia's cousins came to
visit this past week and they had so
much fun. Pretty sure it reached
100 degrees this day and the kids
had a blast playing in the water!!

Taking a break for a little snack!

My cute little girl...she loved the towel and being wrapped up.

Olivia and Daphne

Ellis

Playing in the sand.

The Western Idaho Fair

We took the kids to the fair on Friday. They had a good
time petting and looking at all the animals...as you can
see Owen had to get right in the cows face!!

Lego Land...the kids thought this was a
pretty neat area too. This lion was made
out of all Lego's....pretty impressive!!

And of course the rides.....

Owen was all excited to ride the rides until
he actually got on them, and then he wasn't
so sure.
The helicopter ride

Lauryn and Daphne
Pronto Pups
Food....what the fair is all about.



The train. We went over to Leroy and Barb's for
dinner on Friday night and they had this train
there for the boys to play with. It came from
their great grandpa Garber's house. The price
tag still on it....$4.44. What deal....the prices
of things many, many years ago.


Kara and Aaron
Owen getting his back pack from grandma for
school. He starts preschool a week from Wednesday.
Crazy.....isn't it! Really....I am starting this chapter
in my life. He wasn't too thrilled about it, but...
guess he better get used to the thought of school.
Thanks grandma for the back pack and to Kara and my
cousins for coming over. I had a great week and so much
fun playing with my cousins. I miss them already. Can't wait
to see you all at Thanksgiving. Love you~Owen (and Olivia too).

Camping ~ 2010
Deadwood Reservoir
Hence the name....Deadwood!!

It was absolutely beautiful. My husband got
quite creative with the camera and took some
really good picture. I am impressed!!!


The view from our campsite.

Aaron's and the kiddos on the hammock.

Relaxing



Owen and Grandpa fishing!!
I got one......but oh so hard to get it in!

Look at that fish!!!

Beautiful sunset
Playing in the water. We had beautiful weather and it
was fairly warm, but there was always a nice breeze in
the afternoon which made the water rather chilly!!!!

My pale little miss
Grandma and Owen. She was such a good sport and got
in the water and played with Owen for a long time.

Eating.....one of the fun things about camping!!

Roasting hot dogs...another fun thing about camping....
marshmallows are better, but....that is just my opinion!!

Grandma and Olivia coloring...that last a few minutes.
Such short attention spans these little ones have!!

Eating breakfast with my little man!!

Olivia being miss little independent and eating by herself!


Owen catching butterflies. Aaron found a net for
him to catch them in and then grandma gave him
the brilliant idea and he thought that was the coolest
thing ever. He wanted to sleep with them and then of
course we had to bring them home. It is so cute to see
them get excited about the little things in life!!

We took a drive into Bruce Meadows which is another
beautiful place. Well the salmon were spawning and
with two fisherman along we had to stop several
times to check them out. It was very interesting.



Grandma with the kiddos!!!

What a great trip! We had so much fun! Beautiful place,
great food and wonderful company....can't get better!!!

Zip....Zipping
The Zipline, Horseshoe Bend
The girls (well some of us).
The guys!

Aaron and I in are gear.

The whole group. We had such a fun time. It was great going
in such a big group and watching everyone else zipping too!!
Getting our instructions on what to do. We had great guides!


The beautiful scenery from the top.

Sara, Nicole, Tara and I!!

Aaron and I...this was the funniest zipline. It was awesome!

Aaron coming in for the landing. There was actually a zipline
that you come down on the ground and have to land.
This was the double zipline....so we of course had
fun trying to race and see who would win!!!
What a great experience with a GREAT group of friends!!!
