Birthday Bash!


We even celebrated my 29th birthday and my dad's 55th birthday while we were camping in McCall. Hannah and Taylor got me a pinata (my first one ever) amongst other things, and we had a blast. A very memorable birthday!

Canoe Trip




Our latest camping trip was in McCall. One day we rented from canoes and went back in the mountains. It was beautiful--and a lot of work! The kids thought it was so much fun. We stopped at the end and had a picnic.

The Mouse!!

We went outside one day and we found a new furry friend....or so the kids thought! They went to get their new friend some cheese, so mommy had to pick up the creepy little thing! Oh well, the kids had a blast feeding it--luckily he hasn't came back for more cheese!

CAMPING!!


This is where we went camping last week! It was up above Garden Valley called Silver Creek. I can't believe how dirty my kids got, but they loved it! They have a natural warm pool up there and the kids pretty much had either a bath from the pool or we had to bathe them outside in a tote! We were there from Wednesday through Sunday, and we all were black when we got home, even the dogs (they were the worst)! But we had a blast and Brandon (the clean freak) even got dirty! How could you not!

Brandon's Truck!!



Brandon finally got his truck!! We got it a few weeks ago and went camping with it this past weekend. He loves it and so do the kids! Now we have something to haul crap in!!!!

Jen's Garden!!

I am so excited! I finally have my garden I have always wanted and it is actually growing something other than weeds!!! The kids go out with me and pick strawberries almost daily, we have tons of potatoes and Hannah's corn is growing taller by the day! She is so proud of her corn! I wasn't very happy to find a gopher in my garden eating all of my lettuce whe we got home from Sun Valley----hopefully Brandon took care of the problem when he stuck a BB gun down the hole!!!!
