Attempt to Get Caught Up #1

4th of July--getting ready to go watch fireworks.

So, one of my new year's resolutions is to get caught up on the blog and stay caught up the entire year. It seems so daunting and time consuming to dedicate each incident to one blog post so I am going to be posting as many pictures as I can into one blog post before I get interrupted. Hopefully I can get caught up more quickly this way.

Our wonderful Sacajawea Center has an event called Heritage Days or Sacajawea Days...not sure which one. But, they have so many fun activities for the kiddos. We were able to walk into this huge fish and hear a story about the lifecycle of Salmon, the journey they make to the ocean and back again. They kids dressed up in costumes before they went inside the fish.

We got to go on a carriage ride at the Sac center

Beautiful kids in the beautiful Salmon River

One of the activities at the Sac Center was the kids got to take different molds of paw and hoof prints and press them into the wet sand to see tracks.

A lady that Dallin works with let us come pick apricots. She has a beautiful yard and garden. The kids had fun picking apricots and climbing the tree.

4th of July

We were so blessed to have Lisa, Charles, and Colten come visit us once a month during the summer. Colten loved little Mae Mae.

We made farms out of popsicle sticks, oats, and grass. This one is Claire's.

While Lisa and Charles were here Dallin and I got away with Mae and went golfing. My first time golfing. It was Mae's first time also. She fit perfectly on that golf cart. I loved golfing but was terrible at it.

Huckleberry picking.

While we were picking huckleberries there were these butterflies everywhere! The kids were thrilled they could catch them and hold them.

This is how Mae picks huckleberries

The girls went even shorter!!

At the Sac center the kids painted these rubber molds and then pressed them onto paper

Right before going into the big fish at the sac center. Claire was a fish!

This was art in the park. Sam enjoyed watching the forest service saw the logs so the kids could paint them.

New cuts!

Sam loves his little sister!

This was the family reunion in Burley. Grandma Connie got all the grandkids squirt guns. Sam loved filling them up in the river.
