Trip to Idaho..

Kolton, Lucas, Linkin and Jacob, just sitting back relaxing after the long trip. Lucas was so excited to see his cousins. He was jumping up and down when they got to Grandma's house.

Lucas was helping his dad drive to Dead Wood. It was about 4 hours away from Meridian. The dirt road took forever.. Nobody fell asleep driving this time, SO HAPPY! We camped in Dead Wood with Aaron's family, thirteen altogether. We stayed for two nights. It was a lot of fun.

The river was so huge. It made the Virgin River look like a tiny stream..

The boys did so well on the ride to, from and back again. I swear we were in the truck the whole time we were in Idaho..

The scenery was so beautiful. The rapids were so big. Next time we go back up we will probably go rafting. I don't know, it looks super scary!! But whatever you only live once, RIGHT??

Birthday Boys!!!

This year we spent Lucas' and Aaron's birthday up in the mountains. Lucas turned 3 on August 1st and Aaron is now 29, on August 2. So much fun.

Lucas got his first bike. He was thrilled.

Hogle Zoo

We had a great time at the hogle zoo. We went with both of my sisters and their kids. It was so fun...

This gorilla was making kissie faces at my boys it was so fun to watch

Chasta got tired, so Linkin decided to help Lucas pull her in the wagon.

James and Annie, Christa's two little ones, just finishing up lunch in the rain storm..

Lucas made sure we were on the right path. He was in charge of the map.

I just love this pic.

Just waiting around.

Its a GIRL!!

Just two more weeks...

until we find out what we are having. Linkin and Lucas are so excited. They get to go with us to the ultrasound, which is June 9th. We can't wait!!

A random day at Grafton

Linkins 7th Birthday.

Linkin had the best birthday ever.

What a way to spend it, at Pirates Island.

Really up-close.

The pirate hats were my favorite.


This is Brinleigh and Lucas after a water balloon fight at Linkin's friend party.

They were freezing!!

This started it all, the shirts and beanies, were a gift from Grandma Margaret.

Kaden, my nephew, took state in wrestling.

He is a freshman at Weiser High School, in Idaho.
