I can't believe it is already time for school to start again. Where did summer go? But it will be nice to get back on a schedule again. It will be weird to have just Brielle at home everyday!

Our Family Reunion in Island Park!

We went up to our family reunion upat Island Park. It was so pretty, and the weather was perfect. It even rained on us a couple nights. I loved being in the cabin and listening to the rain hit the tin roof and the loud thunder up in the mountains. Especially the fresh mountain air. It was so nice to leave the 110' weather here and go up and cool off. It was so much fun to be able to see all my family and visit with them.



Me and Brielle watching the fish swim in the water. She loved it!!



Feeding the fish,birds and ducks at Big Springs.



Dipping our feet in at Big Springs. It is a natural spring, so the water was freezing. It was fun to see who could put their feet in the longest. It felt nice and refreshing!!



Taking off our shoes, to put our feet in the water.



All the cute grandkids together!!



The kids all wanted to ride together to go up to Big Springs and feed the fish.

4th of July!!

Me and Brett, 4th of July 2010


During the day we went swimming with all of Brett's best friends and their wife and kids at Jessica Mcallister's parents house in Stone Cliff. We had a BBQ and then swimming all afternoon. It was fun to see everyone and all their cute kids.



That night we went on Staheli Hill with all our friends and watched the little parade they do. Afterwards we had a hoola hoop contest. It was so much fun!! Everyone got a turn to hoola hoop. I haven't hoola hooped since I was a kid. But I got up their and still could do it, even around my neck!! Then once it got dark we watched the fireworks everyone had brought. It was fun seeing everyone!



Here are all the kids waiting in there seats to watch the fireworks with their cousins! Every year we go to Grandma Elaine's and watch them light off the fireworks from the sunbowl. It is a perfect place to watch them cause it is only 2 blocks down from the sunbowl, so you can still hear all the music and entertainment that they do.



Kes and Brielle enjoying the fourth of July with their cousins!

Love These Kids!!


It was so funny one night I was straightening up the house: the kids had gotten their pajamas and getting ready for bed. They all were watching some show that came on t.v. while they were waiting for me to put them to bed. When I came in the room I saw them all laying down together with each other (even Brielle). It was the cutest thing ever. I just had to sneak out and go grab my camera before they moved. I just thought it was the cutest picture ever! It doesn't happen too often!!
