When we got to Boise on Saturday the 8th, I dropped Keith off at the airport and he spent the whole week in Alaska hunting caribou and fishing with my brother and nephew, meanwhile, Carson and I spent time with my family, enjoying many sleepovers, splash pads and time with cousins. Part of our trip was spent in Nyssa, Oregon at the LDS church Camp Hycliff for my mom's family (Brown) reunion. We had a blast going down the water slide till we were sore, playing night games, eating yummy food, swimming at Owhyee Reservoir, skits, a pinata, and just enjoying time with my mom's family that we really only see like once a year.
Some exciting news we learned at the reunion is....my parents announced that they will be putting their papers in within the next month or two to serve another mission! We are so excited and happy for them! I think this calls for another trip to Boise to see them before they leave :)
We had lots of sleepovers with cousins--cuz they're just the best.
Saturday night- Cousins-- Brielle and Malia's house
Sunday night- Cousins-- Hailey, Katy, Aiden & Abby's house
Monday night- Cousins--Alexa, Tristan, Brecka, Brynlee & Tyson's house
Tuesday night-- Cousin- Emma's house!
We gotta fit as many in a week as we can.

| They got 2 caribou |
Meanwhile in Oregon....
 |
| It was more smooth of a ride with a tube for sure, but it was definitely more thrilling going down without one! |
 |
| Not sure if they tipped but they sure had fun. |
 |
| Love that Carson has 36 cousins on my side alone. (shaving cream and a tarp = pure fun) |
 |
| Squeezing in the back of my brother Kirk's truck to go to Owhyee Reservoir. Oh this reminds me of the 90s. Meanwhile....when we got back to Casper... I got in full house mode for visitors coming next month (Keith's parents and sister) A little sneak peak....my house is finally coming along, decor wise. I still have a lot of hanging of pictures etc., but slowing it's coming along. We finally have all the furniture we need! |
 |
| The start of Carson's room...more to come. |
 |
| All new furniture--rug, couch, and curtains. More pics to come... |
So fun! I can't believe Misti is a 2nd grade teacher. That girl is so amazing. I'm so excited for Cita & Grandpa! I loved this post. I'm so happy Keith got to go hunting in Alaska and I love all the sleepover pictures too. I love your new house so far. PLEASE tell me where you got your adorable couch and rug!
ReplyDeleteHey Chels! I got my rug online from Walmart--http://www.walmart.com/ip/45878048, and the couch is from a local furniture store--Slumberland.
ReplyDeleteI just got caught up on your blog, it was so fun to see what you've been doing this summer...you guys have done A LOT and seen some awesome things. I want to take Pete to the Hole in the Wall and they petroglyphics. I seriously thought you couldn't get to Hole in the Wall, I thought it was on private ranch property, but I think that's a different outlaw site closer to Casper...I contacted the ranchers and said we could go, since they have a dude ranch but not sure what the fee would be to do that. Hole In the Wall looks way cool though! I updated my blog, I had 5 months of pictures I hadn't posted yet!
ReplyDeleteHey you forgot to sleep over at our house.
