This past weekend we decided to go to the Twin Falls Temple open house. Wow what a beautiful temple. I love that you can see it from the interstate. After the open house we went to Shoshone Falls, were we had lunch and played. Lilli and Maggie are rock climbers, so every opportunity they climb rocks. Annabelle of course has to do everything that her cousins do...so that led to her finding a pint sized rock just the right size for her to climb. It was a great trip and a wonderful place to be with all of our families and friends. The Keczmers, Hunsakers, Chelsea, Bryan, the Greens and folks, thanks for making it a great trip.

Happy Birthday To US!!

Notice the big bite.

As You might all know Jeff and I have the same BDay. So we always try to go big. This year because our adopted daughter had a BDay and high school graduation, we thought that she needed something special also. So we decided to chase the Boston Red Sox to Seattle. It was a beautiful game. The Red Sox won 4-0.

4th of July...a lil late

We had quite the fun 4th of July. We started it off by sleeping in our tent trailer, we didn't go far....the side yard. Then we dusted off the old Baja Bug and drove it to the Hunsakers house for a BBQ and some pool fun. And for the sake of tradition, we headed out to Melba. We had a slight hiccup on the way to the fireworks. Well I am kinda good at running out of gas in the old Baja. Yeah...I did it again, on the way to Melba. Luckily my parents weren't too far behind. Melba put on another good show, especially with "Great Balls Of Fire" With Faith Hill's version of the "Star Spangled Banner" in my head and my parents home made ice cream in my belly, home we went, well to get more gas and to drop off the sleeping children. Then back to the thriving town of Melba once more. Even with the double trip and the long day in the sun it was another good year for tradition. Thanks Mom and Dad... and Jeff and Annabelle for putting up with my crazy traditions.

Take me out to the ballpark

Jeff is coaching/playing coed adult softball. Poppa Hankins buys Annabelle popcorn every game it is their lil diddy!

girls camp

We survived another year at girls camp. It was fun and always a good experience. Jeff and I took 16 , that is right 16 15 year old girls backpacking. It was a 5 miler, 5 in and 5 out, there was snow it was amazing. The girls worked pretty hard.

Finally, Finally

So, I was just thinking that I would listen to EVERYONE and jump on this train. Plus my daughter is so darn cute I just have to show her off. Enjoy!!
