Hells Canyon Vacation

This weekend we were able to escape the heat of the Treasure Valley and head to the heat of Hells Canyon! While we were at Hells Canyon Dam it rained and a nice breeze came through to provide a bit of relief (keep in mind I am eight months pregnant - I do not deal well with heat). I must admit it was beautiful up there!

Corbin got a little sick on our way up to visit Hells Canyon Dam. Poor guy!

The purpose and highlight of our vacation was fishing. Corbin thoroughly enjoyed the girls' successes.

Campbell's first catch - ever! She was ecstatic! It is hard to keep this little girl involved in one activity for more than thirty minutes, but she fished for hours.

Andison after her first day of fishing with dad. She caught two fish and dad caught two. By the end of the weekend Ani could cast, catch, and release her fish. I think I sense a new family hobby in the making.

Happy Birthday Ani!

My baby girl has reached the ripe old age of six! I can't believe it! What a blessing she is in my life! She is such a rock - her testimony surpasses mine in many ways! I LOVE YOU ANDISON!!

Last year we started taking our own birthday pictures instead of going to a portrait studio. Not only is it lots of fun it is a whole lot cheaper.

Some of Ani's recent accomplishments include:
Graduating from Kindergarten!

Being a phenomenal big sister!

Learning how to ride a bike without training wheels!

Easter Sunday

This is our second year having a sunrise devotional on Easter Morning. We read about our Savior's death and resurrection and bore our testimonies while we enjoyed the beautiful sunrise.

Thanks to Great-Grandma the kids were able to dress-up for the special occasion!
