Here's our cool off spot!

Summer just began.....Didn't it?

With summer just getting here....poof....school starts in 2 weeks! Where in the world did the time go? Our trampoline has gotten the most use out of it this summer. We still haven't put it out on the grass to let the kids jump on the sprinklers. Here Shane is jumping away.

Many Trips to Jacob Lake

Here are just a few pictures from several trips to Jacob Lake this summer. We pulled our trailer out for the 4th of July weekend and ended up leaving it there since is was such a nice camping spot. We have gone back every weekend except one.

Blog about it...tag 6 people.I think this is a picture not too long after we brought Kody into this world. I don't really remember the story behind the picture, other than if looks could kill! :) It doesn't look like Shane is too happy about me taking the picture.

Look who's TwO!

Kody turns TwO!

Kody had a wonderful little birthday party on Saturday. He really enjoyed himself and the friends and family that came to eat cake. I really think for once it was all about KODY and he really loved the attention. He was awesome at unwrapping his gifts. He got Lincoln Logs from Aunt Shareen and Papa Scott! A bike helmet and bath toys from Auntie M, Cassie, and Braden! New clothes, shoes & socks, a toy truck & trailer w/ a four wheeler, and horses from mom & dad and brother Shane. Gramma Bonnie and Gramma RaNae/Grampa DeVon were also there for the fun. Thanks everyone for making it a special day for KoDY!

Bloomington Caves

It was off to find the Bloomington Caves for our Sunday Rhino adventures. We had gone two weekends ago, and got off Geo Caching and missed our turn. We did lots of treasure hunts so we didn't miss the caves that weekend. This one was fun too. I have combined pictures from both trips since I am having such a hard time posting.
The caves were pretty neat! We all went down to see what it was all about. It was pretty humid once you went down below and it really opened up a bunch. It was a tight squeeze to get in and felt a little hard to breath.
We sure wish we were better equipped with BRIGHTER flash lights. It was really dark once we got all the way in. On the ceiling had drops of water dripping. Shane said he was a "little" scared. Kody just was wide eyed the whole time, saying "hold you".
It was a little like walking crouched over. The ceilings were a little low. There were not too many places that you could stand tall. Shane could though! :)
See, Shane still crouched over even though he was sitting down. We had so much fun!

I am so BIG! Next weekend I will be TWO!

Great foodies (lunch), fun hikes, lots of smiles, a happy snow woman or Josh anyway, treasure rocks, and lots of dirt! Kevin and Josh were like little boys in Grade school while in the caves. I can't wait for warmer weather, but it sure is nice to live where we do.

4th & 4th

If you're reading this, i TAG you! {PLAY ALONG}
I got this idea from a random blog. This is what you need to do.
1. Go to your picture files on your computer.
2. Go to the 4th folder.
3. Pick the 4th picture in the 4th folder.
4. Post it and tell what you remember about the picture, if anything. NO CHEATING!
-this is my 4th & 4th:

This picture would have been a cool fall day at Diamond Valley before my parents fled off to Mexico for the 6th or 7th trip. Shane would have been 3 1/2 years old and we went up the street to feed the neighbors horses.
