Zoo with the cousins

One morning while the older cousins were at theatre camp, we took the young ones to the Zoo. I must say, Zoo Boise has improved a lot lately, especially with the African exhibit. YAY for giraffes.

Roaring Springs with the Cousins

Hayden goes on Trek

What a year for Hayden! Once he turned 12, there has been one experience after another. He talked in church, went to scout camp, and went with our ward on a trek. He is really honors his priesthood and is a great kid.

Jacob's Baptism

HOORAY!! Jacob was so excited for this day. We were so glad that cousins cut into their trip to come.

Jacob turns 8

My sweet baby boy is 8!! He was so excited about this birthday and the race car theme. He had a few friends over, but wanted NO party games. I finally talked him into a treasure hunt. I think everyone had a good time, but 8 boys can get awfully loud. Jacob is super excited because he gets baptized on 4th of July. So-we are going to have fireworks in his honor this year!!

Cabin photos!!

The bunk room.
Our original plan was to go up and get things set up and then come home. Emma would have none of that! With her hand on her hip, she convinced her daddy that it wasn't fair that "we builded the bunkbeds and didn't even get to sleep in them." so-we stayed.

The Cabin is Complete!!

Hooray! We have received the temporary certificate of occupancy. So we have started moving in.
