Whew...I'm tired now

Well I hope after catching up on my blog you won't be as tired as I was. And Jon just slept through the whole thing. (Actually these were taken by my dad when he came to visit...pretty sneaky, huh?) Anyway, sorry to overwhelm you with so many posts, but I hope you can enjoy them. I added so many that you have to go to older posts at the bottom to see 2 more posts I added too.

Visiting with family

My dad and his family (Helen, David, and Laura) came to visit. Laura brought her fiance Matt, they're getting married on September 27th. Yeah! We just had a ball with them! We miss them so much!

Lava Hot Springs

When my dad and his family came to visit he treated us to a fun-filled day at Lava Hot Springs pool. We had a blast! My stepsister Laura brought her fiance Matt and they were inseperable...it was cute! Matt and Laura lived with us for 2 weeks and it was pure fun everyday with them! (Thanks Matt for letting us raid your playstation 3!) I love this picture of my dad and Matt just chillin' in the shade chairs.

Here's Josh in mid jump off the slide.
This is Matt and Laura. Aren't they so cute!?

Josh's very! loose tooth

I just couldn't resist taking a picture of Josh's cute little loose tooth. His other top front tooth did the same thing and came out sideways. And Josh waits until the bitter end....he doesn't dare tug on it or pull it out. We'll see how long this one takes!

The Twin Falls Temple

I feel so lucky to have had 2 new temples have open houses so close to us. My mom's birthday happen to be during the open house time for the Twin Falls temple so I invited her to go and she was excited about it. I really enjoyed being there with her, especially inside. The feeling there just can't be compared to anywhere else. I'm so glad my boys know a little bit more about the temple too and what they have to look forward to.

Ward campout

We were looking forward to our ward campout for weeks and it met our expectations and more. We did so many fun things. We floated the river, went fly fishing, the kids rode bikes...and all the other fun camping things. Plus we grew closer to our new ward.

A "new" haircut

Ya know how little girls love to give themselves at least one haircut?...well boys do too but it usually involves a hair buzzer. So here you have it, a nine year olds version of cutting his own hair. You have to look close and then you can see it looks like chunks of his hair fell out. :) Don't worry I fixed it.

Inkom activities

Inkom has been such a fun town to live in. They do so many fun things. These pictures were from after the 4th of july parade. The boys had a ball with all the activities. Caleb even played in a basketball tournament and won his division. It was awesome!

Forgive me...

Okay so I'm only over a month behind on posting this but....oh well. Just had to share the fun we had on the 4th. Caleb and I were able to march in the parade with our cub scout pack which was fun. Sparklers were a hit of course, but they scared Andrew a little bit. Caleb was so great helping his younger brothers light fireworks. And the best is the last picture where all 3 are captivated by a firework!
