 |
| Getting ready for our big trip. Caleb got all his being sick out of the way before we left. |
 |
| Stopped to visit Grammy for her birthday! Thanks for letting us use your new birthday present! |
 |
| When visiting Grammy, we always get to visit fun places like Ashton Gardens. Look out below! |
 |
| We had a lot of really old friends join us. We had to lay down some rules: No chasing or biting. |
 |
| Found a cool spot to hang out when it got hot outside. |
 |
| Time to head out on our adventure. That's the weirdest looking hotel ever! |
 |
| Wait! Our room is on the TOP floor!? |
 |
| Awesome room! |
 |
| Our balcony has a great view of the sunset and the temple! |
 |
| Carter was very concerned that the doorknob was so far away from the edge of the door. |
 |
| We decided to take an evening walk to look at the river. |
 |
| Jayden found this awesome bench quickly. |
 |
| And her brothers soon joined. |
 |
| Hey guys! Try out this goose! |
 |
| We finally made it to our campsite near Glacier National Park. Looking forward to a few fun days with our friends. |
 |
| It rained a lot the first two days. But the food and the campfire were enjoyable! |
 |
| We had the guys move the fire closer to the camper so we could sit under the awning away from the rain. |
 |
| It wasn't rainy the whole time though. Caleb had a fun time playing real life Minecraft. Here he is chopping some wood with his axe. XD |
 |
| Heading out on our first hike. We didn't quite come prepared for this sort of hike. |
 |
| You guys are crazy! I'm not hiking up there! |
 |
| Fine Dad, I'll come. |
 |
| Caleb finally demanded to be carried. And eventually, Mom took Caleb back to the truck. The Misty Mountains are no place for a halfling. |
 |
| Driving down to some lower elevation areas now. There were some great views! |
 |
| Look Mom, the Grand Canyon! |
 |
| Found a much warmer hike in a forest. |
 |
| Jayden, you have some catching up to do. |
 |
| An endless supply of walking sticks and weapons. |
 |
| It was a beautiful and enjoyable hike. |
 |
| Morning of Craig's race. If you look very closely, there is a fox out in that field looking for his breakfast. |
 |
| Craig did great on his race! His time was 2 hours 11 minutes. Beautiful course, one of the best races. |
 |
| Moving on to the next leg of our trip. Visiting some good friends in Spokane. Ice cream night! |
 |
| Caleb LOVED this ice cream game. |
 |
| Going on a short hike to the lake! |
 |
| The water was a little chilly. |
 |
| Caleb kept a safe distance from the water. |
 |
| Pretty girl at a pretty lake. |
 |
| Not entirely sure if we were allowed to sit on these statues. |
 |
| I think we had to tell him a joke or something and then pounced with a picture when he smiled. |
 |
| Hanging out with some friends at a cookie shop. I think our friends had too many cookies. |
 |
| Don't fall in Jayden! |
 |
| Sliding off the diving board is more fun than jumping. |
 |
| Last night with our friends. Time to head home. |
 |
| Back at Grammy's house. Carter had to get some practice mowing the lawn on Grammy's lawn..... |
 |
| .......because he wouldn't have a lawn to practice on at home. (Our irrigation system went out on day 1 of our trip. So here is our lawn after nearly two weeks without water during a heat wave--112 degree temps. So sad.) |
 |
| Everyone always flocks around Uncle Spencer. |
 |
| Caleb's new jet pack. |
 |
| Glad to spend the 4th of July with our family! |
