Island Park

We went to Island Park this last weekend with my family, not the whole family- that would be quite the gathering! It was our family, my parents, my sister Lori and her family, my sister Whitney and her family, and my nephew Skylar. My parents got a cabin up there last year that we stayed in.We had so much fun! It was great to go and spend time together as a family.

Tanner and Ben had a blast going for rides on the Ranger, 4-wheelers, and the boat. They got to sleep on bunk beds which was so exciting for them and luckily no one rolled off the top! They loved making smores on the fire too. Instead of graham crackers and a chocolate bar my family uses E.L. Fudge Stripe Cookies, it's so much easier and still delicious! They went to Big Springs with Abby and Kadee to see the trout spawning. It's suppose to be really neat- I've actually never been. ?

The Babies. (We need to stop calling them that, but we don't know what to call them. ?) Anyhow, the Babies loved playing with my dad's new dog Annie. They drove that poor dog nuts. There was a small patch of snow from a storm earlier that week that they loved to play in, unfortunately it melted quick.They were very helpful loading the campfire wood in the wheelbarrow. Nevermind that my dad just got done unloading, they did a great job loading it up! We took them for a Ranger ride also, they all didn't love that. Luke cried when we started it, Adam cried when it moved, and Drew and Ella fell asleep in the back. I think they just loved getting dirty. Really dirty!

Hey what a fun trip! You have great pictures and it's nice to see the little ones get a vacation too. That's my suggestion for their new name...from babies to little ones. They'll be the 'little ones' for awhile we hope right? Well it looks like fun, and can I just say, I LOVE your new blog!!!!!
