Buckie

C 'n I bought Buckie a harness for walks while we were in Idaho. Every time we put a leash on his collar he starts to choke and is thrown into a fit of not being able to breathe. Our vet told us small dogs are susceptible to having their trachea collapse, and suggested we buy a harness. C put the harness on him and he acted like he'd just had his man-ness taken away. His tail between the legs it was sad. C decided to take it off and he immediately did this.

He was so upset with C he wouldn't even look at him. Funny Dog!!

Pocatello Fun!!

C n' I went to Pocatello to visit with my grandma who is going to be moving to Washington this next month. As an added bonus we got to see my sister and her 5 children this weekend too!! We had so much fun. We played games, went shopping, had humongous milkshakes, and we went rollerskating. Man I love family!!!

I'm trying to win this.

Labor Day Weekend

C. n' I went to see my family this last weekend. We had so much fun!!! We went down to bottle lots and lots of tomato juice. We bottled 132 quarts of juice split between 5 of us. It made the house really hot but it was fun canning with my mom and my sisters. Canning with family really beats canning by yourself.
We also went down for my new nephew's baby blessing. I had so much fun cuddling him. I even got to go to the beauty shop while holding him. He is super cute and all of his sister's are so happy to have a brother. It was so fun playing with the nieces and visiting with my family. I wish my family and I lived closer together.

Week of fun!!

I got to have 4 of my nieces this past week. We had so much fun. We rode horses alot. They really enjoyed them this time. We let the 2 oldest ride them by themselves. We rode the 4 wheelers and go karts. Went raspberry picking, and climbed a huge hill and slid down it. The girls thought that it was so much fun. I was sad to take them back to their parents. But I get to see them next week!!!

This weekend marks the centennial year the "Tabernacle," our stake center, was built. The Church here is having all sorts of activities to celebrate the special occasion. This morning they had a 10.5 mile bike ride from the rock quarry to the Tabernacle. We thought it would be lots of fun to try it. We made T-shirts that had the names of C's relatives that were alive in 1909.
"

WE MADE IT!! Even my Father in-law who is 70 years old made the whole trek. He had my MIL meet us at different points along the way in their car just in case he wasn't up for the whole thing but he was.
When we got up in the morning it was really windy and it looked like it was going to rain. We decided to go up to the starting line to see what it was like. Turns out I liked the overcast skies. It made it so I wasn't overly heated during the ride. But I have to say that my tush is a little sore. Definitely have not ridin' bikes enough this year.

Fourth of July Weekend

C n I had an awesome weekend with my sister and her family. Any spare minute we had the girls wanted to go 4 wheelin and go karting. K had so much fun driving the go kart by herself. We went to a gravel pit just across the creek to just ride around.

After lunch on Friday they wanted to ride horses. They really enjoyed that but they wished they could ride them by themselves. However, my horse leads really good, and we had only ridden them once this year because of all the rain so we didn't dare turn them loose. Side note: which turned out to be a good thing because when C n I went riding on Tuesday night we had a rodeo with her. The darn horse.
We then had a break in the clouds to light off a few fireworks before it started pouring down rain. We forgot to light the rest of the fireworks off the next night. Next time you guys come up we'll have to light the rest of them off.

Monday we went to Bear Lake. It was so much fun. However the sunburns we got were not so much fun.

This is right before M took his 2 daughters out of the tube and then flipped it over. Thanks M!!

I'm so excited to see them in August. I wished we lived closer to them.
