Last week we went to Coeur D'Alene to visit Silverwood theme park.  I have never been farther North in Idaho then Lewiston so it was so fun to get to see that part of Idaho.  It was absolutely gorgeous...like I could move there gorgeous! 

 

 



We stopped and stayed in Pendleton on our way there, we went and did the Underground tour.  Had a blast but it was a bit too adult for the boys.

 

 

I chose not to ride this one, I really don't like the "free-fall" feeling.

But I thought this one was a great idea??  200 feet of free-fall on After Shock....great idea!

 

 

Don't let this picture of Ry fool you, he did not ride After Shock, he did not come anywhere near riding After Shock.  Ry has very strong opinions about roller coasters, he hates them!

 

He loved the train though, nice and easy....nothing to fast!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 We also got to do a pirate cruise...the boys thought that was pretty awesome!  Jace is to old to take a picture with the pirates. :(

 

 

 

 

All in all we had such a good time.  I cannot wait to get back there and spend some more time exploring Coeur D'Alene.



Summertime

We are officially on summer break...well, we have been for almost a month now. Hopefully, my blog will let me upload pictures now and I can get back to blogging. 

 

 

Here is a great picture of Jace, hanging out during summer!

 

 

 

 

 

Halloween 2012

 Meet Norm and Gertie... they are the cutest old couple!!

Rylan had so many compliments on his costume I lost count.  Ry has always been a bit of an old soul, wise beyond his years... so this really fit him!

At some point...Granny became quite creepy!

Rolex was dressed as a chicken!

Grandma was pretending to be really old Grandma.

Rodeo and Chaps

One thing Jace has done alot of this summer is rodeo'ed.  Today was not such a good day for him, he got hurt before he ever even left the chute.  The dang steer would not cooperate with him one bit.

Jace really needed some chaps so my mom and dad got him a pair.  We picked them up today and are thrilled with the way they turned out.  We are hoping to get at least 3 years out of them!!

Since Jace placed 1st in the Emmett rodeo he qualified for the ICA Finals in a couple of weeks.  We are so excited he gets to experience this!!

BSU Jamboree 2012

Can you imagine the excitement a 9 year old would feel if they got to play football on the blue turf?  Jace got to do just that last weekend during his jamboree.   He said it was one of the coolest things he has ever done. Rylan got to play in BSU's indoor arena, he thought that was pretty neat too.
