A week of Firsts

My kids got to try some new water activities this week. The first was at Blacktail. They both loved the boat ride. Hayden loved going in the tube (as long as Heath wasn't driving) - Hannah not so much, but at least she tried it.
Next was a river rafting trip down the Snake River. We only let them go half way because the bigger waves are a little much for kids their age. Hayden loved it and was sad to get out. Hannah once again tolerated it and wouldn't get off my lap but at least she did it.
We also finished the first round of swimming lessons. They had a great time and I actually felt like they were learning this time. We are going to take a few weeks off and then do another round. We were excited they both passed their class. Polliwogs here we come!

And here we have Yellowstone

We made a quick trip to Yellowstone this weekend. We actually stayed the night in the park which I had never done before. It was a beautiful campground. We went to Footloose at the playmill, saw lots of animals, counted license plates (we got 39) and saw a lot of the spots in the park. I really enjoyed the two days we were there. It was fun to spend time with my parents and my sister and her family. Summer is going by to fast.

My Two Cuties

My sister took my kids pictures a few weekends ago. I think they turned out great. It was so fun to just go in her backyard. It relieved a lot of the stress of getting pictures. I'm so excited to have it done for this year and to hang them up in my house. Thanks Jenn!
