Bear Lake and Soda spring geyser

We went camping in Idaho with Eric's family. We went to Bear lake and and then we went and saw the Soda spring geyser. We had a great time and really had a blast at Bear lake. The kids were so cute and loved every minute we were there.
We were also very excited about the geyser....until we got there and found out it was a man-made geyser (lamo) But, I guess the history behind it is acctually pretty interesting. Some pioneers were drilling for a hot water spring that they were hoping to use insted they found a cold water spring.So, It was still fun and still looked way cool.
It was really our first offical time takeing the kids camping and I think it went well...they really seemed to like it. We are looking forward to taking them camping again next summer.

Summer vacation in Idaho

Preschool Graduation


So, this isn't a very good picture, but it's of Abby getting her certificate from her teacher. She really had such a great few moths in this class and she just loved her teachers. We started at the very beginning of the school year in a private preschool and that didn't work out so well so by January we had her enrolled in a public school preschool. She was able to get all the help she needed. By May she had just excelled by leaps and bounds. She can even read a bit on her own. Thank you, Miss Jessy and www.starfall.com! Is it silly if I got a little teary eyed at the Graduation? I'm so proud of her!

Random Spring Fun

This spring was a difficult one. We really couldn't play out side all that much because it was so rainy and cold pretty much every day. But we found some things to entertain ourselves, like going to the Air and space museum on Hill AFB. The kids love that place! We need to go back.

Everyone should read...

...This book! I bought this on CD and I'm loving every minute of it! What an eye opener for the current situation our county is in. I don't have much time to talk about the whole book, but if you are worried about our country and the kind of care our so called public servants are giving it, then READ THIS BOOK!
