Island Park 2009

Lots of pictures...

We got to go to Island Park, Idaho for a long weekend trip and it was so much fun! My mom's family is from Idaho and most of them live there still so we all got together and stayed the weekend at a cabin up there. It was so great to be there and have a break from everything!



The first day we were there we floated the river and Scott fished out of the canoe of course.

Later that evening they all went fishing and caught tons of fish!

Savanna relaxed at the cabin for most of the trip :)

Canyon and I went to a little area called "Mack's Inn" and got shaved ice. YUM!!

We went to Yellowstone one of the days and of course we left our stroller at the cabin. This picture shows our wonderful helpers packing our kids around. :)

4th of July Weekend

Friday morning we took Canyon and Savanna to the balloon festival.

Canyon loved it, until they lit the fire in the balloons. Then he cried. :)

Friday was also Shelly's Birthday! Happy 17th birthday Shelly!

My mom & I took her to Primrose Retreat and we all got glitter toes!

On the 4th we had a tailgate party outside the stadium with our friends and then watche the stadium fireworks. Canyon ate lots of chips. :)

It was a fabulous 4th!!

JUNE

So far this Summer...

We went to Orem's Summerfest during the short break in the rain! Canyon rode on one ride and we watched the parade! We got back to our car just before it started raining again.

We went to Pleasant Grove's Strawberry Days the next week. My mom & I took Canyon to the carnival during the week and he got to ride on a few more rides. They were $1.50 a ticket and each ride was 2 tickets!! It was crazy! Summerfest, the week before was only $.75 a ticket and the ride he went on was only one ticket. I'll have to remember that for next year!

Then today we had a family reunion at Lindon park. This is Savanna sitting on Grandpa's lap.

Bryce pushed Canyon on the swings and he loved it, until he fell out and landed on his back. He cried for a couple minutes but then wanted to go back and swing some more.

Canyon got to draw out the tickets for the raffle at the family reunion.

And he won a pail with a shovel that was full of candy, and a bubble wand.

Then we went swimming at the new Lindon pool! It was so fun and so nice to finally have a good Saturday where it wasn't raining so we could enjoy Summer a little bit!

My cute kids :-)

This is what Canyon does when you tell him to smile. He grits his teeth together and thinks he's smiling. We've had 3 months of pictures like this. Its great.... :)

Our Authentic Peruvian Dinner

A couple Sundays ago Manuel & Alyssa cooked us a Peruvian dinner. It was very different than what I expected but still pretty good. It was fun to try something new!

Canyon's trip to Bryce Canyon :)

He's only 2 and already traveling without his parents! This weekend, Canyon got to go camping with my family at Bryce Canyon. I wish that we could have come but Scott & I both had to work. They left on Friday and got back today. Here are some pics from the trip. They said he was very good and had a great time.
