For Father's Day we got Dan a new pontoon raft. This was our maiden voyage... To be safe we just went out on the dyke pond up southfork near Buffalo Bill Res.

This is pictures of our first Yellowstone trip of 2010. We went through on Mother's Day Weekend, the first weekend east entrance was open.

We had a wonderful time.

This was a great bear to watch. He was sleeping for the first part... and just when we thought we would move on, he got up.

We had a blast while the Cossaboons were here to visit... We stayed over night in Yellowstone, and got to visit the Bear and Wolf sanctuary in West Yellowstone. That was a pretty neat place. I wish we had spent more time in the learning part, but it was still fun.


While they were here, we broke out the Bocci Ball game... Grandma and Kyla against Granddad and Jonas... Kyla wasn't sure they were playing fair...



























While we were in Yellowstone, we stopped for lunch at this spot, and Jonas climbed up the rock formations for a picture....

So...they were trying to decide whose ball was closer.. Kyla thinks hers is......

The boys.....and Hunney.

Awww... We love Grandma and Granddad......

Well.... Granddad... He said... "Wait..Wait.. Lets get the measuring tape out!!! In the end

Everybody was a winner!

That Doggon Tooth!!!!

We were just hanging around one evening while everyone was here, and Jonas showed Daddy his loose tooth. So, Dan gets this great idea of how to pull it out. He tied Jonas' tooth to a string, and the other end to Hella... Derek and Cindy's dog. So the plan was to have Hella fetch a ball while Jonas bravely stood by and let the tooth be yanked from his face!!!! See how it turned out....

July With My Family

Happy Birthday to us.......Chandra baked us a cake to celebrate with. Thank you Chandra.

We love these girls!!!! We are sorry Jon wasn't able to come this year.

What in the world, Chandra?????? You are beautiful anyway you look at it!!!

We finally went to the rodeo. We have lived here 3 years, and the rodeo goes every night during the summer... And we had never been. So when Mom and Chuck came we decided to go. It was really fun. And this is the only picture of Chuck I got, because he was busy playing with his new camera the whole week!!@!!


Yeeehaw!!! This Buffalo sits in town waiting for the kids to come and take a picture... While we were walking around we stopped to visit.

This poor little Keeya is such a sweetie to allow Kyla to do what ever she wants with her. This is Kyla's baby carrier for her dolls. And Keeya is strapped in instead.

Grandma still hasn't heeled in this picture it looks like Jonas punched her in the eye and is apologizing.....

We did quite a bit of beading while they were here... And Fawn was especially enjoying herself!!!!

Camping in Colorado

We were in Colorado visiting Derek and Cindy in June. While we were there, we went camping in Rocky Mountain National Park. We really had a blast. We played bacci ball in the camp site, and had our first experience with banana boats. They were this yummy concoction of a banana split open with the peel on, and stuffed with chocolate candy of choice wrapped in foil and cooked over the camp fire. We drove to the top of the mountain and stopped along the way to enjoy the scenery...and wildlife. It was a very special memory made.

Slippin-anda-Slidin

Kyla got a slip-n-slide for her Birthday. We decided to get it out the other day. The kids had soooo much fun on it.
It was one of the days it was warm enough to play in the water... it hasn't even gotten up to 80 on very many days....
