Happy Halloween 2010

We went to Boo at the Zoo on Friday night and had a wonderful time. It was a little cold but that didn't stop the kids from eating all the candy that they put in their buckets. Scotlyn was a vampire, Parker a penguin, and Cooper was chicken. Nana was able to stay an extra day and go with us. She had been with them since Tuesday so we could attend Matts grandpa's funeral in Iowa.

Bear World 2010....

Today we decided to go to Bear World for the day before the bears went into hibernation for the winter. What a wonderful day we had. Auntie Sarah had never been so we did the whole shabang...drove through the park, rode the rides, petted the animals, fed the bears, fed the fish, and even bought some fudge. I think everyone left tired and happy (some a little more cranky than others).

Summertime!!!! 8/21/2010

My dad came to visit for a few days and we had a great time while he was here. I didn't pull out the camera as much as I wanted to but I got a few shots. We went swimming, fishing, and had a marshmallow roast.

The weekend after he left, Matt and I took the kids for a drive to Mesa Falls and Big Springs trout pond in Idaho. It was a full day drive but it was fun. We had lunch at a wonderful restaurant at Mac's Inn in Island Park. The kids were a little cranky when we got home, but after all is said and done...we would do it again.

Aunt Billie, Jin, & the kids... August 2010

We had a visit from my Aunt Billie, cousin Jinnefer, and her 3 kids. We had so much fun while they were here. Wendy and Russ brought the boys back from St. George for us after our trip to Texas, so they were able to be here for the visit as well. Parker and Robert are 5 months apart and Alicia and Cooper are 5 weeks apart. They played so good together. We decided to celebrate Brandon's bday (7/22) and Scotlyn's bday (8/27) together since we don't get to see each other that often. We had many campfires and roasted marshmallows both inside the house and outside the house, we spent Saturday at Reed's Dairy, rode a horse, milked a fake cow, ran a milk man obstacle race (Scotlyn won 1st place and a $20 gift card), had some yummy ice cream, and went roller skating. We had a great 3 days and were sad to have them leave.
