County Fair

We were all excited to go to the fair this year. The kids got to ride all of their favorite rides and loved them all. The roller coaster was a big hit this time. We also walked around and looked at all of the animals and exhibits. I loved all the photographs taken by young 4-H'ers, and the giant paper mache bunny was fun. Next year Ben will be old enough to hve an animal at the fair. We are all looking forewrd to that.

Camping

This past weekend we went camping at the Medicine Wheel campground near Hyattville. It is a beautiful place. Not only is there lots of hiking, it is an ongoing archaeological dig site. The petroglyphs are amazing. The kids spent there time hiking, fishing, and playing in the water. Everyone had a great time and we plan to go back as soon as possible.

4th of July

Jenn and her family were able to come for the 4th of July this year. We had a blast. Tori is getting so big and is so beautiful. All the kids had a great time. We went to the big parade in Cody, and of course, the battery in my camera died! On saturday we celebrated Ben's 8th birthday. I don't think Auntie Jenn has missed one yet. He was so happy with all his gifts and we can't wait to spend more time with Jenn and Adam.....Tori too!

New tree fort

Ben Jr. had made an old fort in our tree line out back. Since the grass was starting to die there, I asked him to find a new location. Ben and his dad decided to build a new one in the trees to the side of our back deck. They had a lot of fun working together and the kids just love the fort.
