A Few Summer Happenings

Jared took us to Swan Falls to do some fishing. I got a little bored and frustrated trying to entertain three kids while Jared took one fishing so I instigated a photo shoot. I probably took one hundred plus pictures but here are few of my favorites.


On our way to Swan Falls we stopped at a garage sale (Jared loves garage sales). We found this cool tool bench with tools for Corbin. Poor Corbin had to wait all day to try out his tools. He stayed up until 11:00 playing with and organizing his tools. He even had Bob the Builder pajamas on to match.
We all had to try on the goggles.
We went camping in Cascade with my parents. Due to all the rain, Cascade Dam was releasing a record amount of water creating this awesome rooster tail.
View from our campsite. Campbell woke up so early she was already down for a morning nap.
We decided to hike to Blue Lake, but there was still several FEET of snow.
A brief dip into the lake with Aunt Kamille.
Building sandcastles with Grandpa Hogg. He came prepared with a real shovel.
Brennan loved her first beach experience.
Campbell played t-ball this year and it was very entertaining. She had a hard time staying focused so she would keep herself busy by performing gymnastics in the middle of the field or by pretending she had a ball and tagging all the runners out when they ran by. The runners did not appreciate her role-playing.
Hey, batter, batter, batter, swing!
Brennan has four teeth coming in so she has been extra snuggly.
Our next camping trip was to Featherville. We had tons of fun with my mom and Aunt Kamille. On the final night I took Corbin for a bike ride until he fell asleep.
Jared took the girls to the Snake River Stampede. We forgot to take naps so Campbell slept through half of the excitement, but they had a great time.
Happy Birthday Brennan! I can't believe my baby is already a year old. Here are a few of her favorite new toys. Do you recognize the bear Aunt Ilene? Thank you!
We love you Baby B!

We had a fun filled evening at Grandma and Grandpa Fluckiger's home for the 4th of July! The fireworks are not as exciting as I remember them but our kids had a blast.
