Summertime in Idaho

The kids and I spend a few weeks every summer at my parents home. The kids have fun being able to play outside as much as they like and going on fun outings with their grandparents.

These first two pictures are actually from last summer. The girls were dying to ride a horse and luckily their cousin (my cousin) had a horse. He was kind enough to come up and let them get on with him. They thought it was amazing!! Some of the appeal to going to Idaho is the animals. Since we have no pets and there are not many livestock roaming the lots where we live.

This was the activity of choice every morning while waiting for the grown ups to get ready to go whatever activity we had planned for the day. Those swings got a lot of miles on them!

This summer we went bowling as one of our activities. The girls loved it, Ronin slept through most of it. There was music playing while we bowled; Chris and the girls just couldn't contain themselves and had to break it down!

After bowling and miniature golf we had to get in some carnival type games.

My generous parents who always welcome us and let us terrorize their home every summer.
