My Birthday Party

I should have posted these a while ago, I'm just getting to it! Summer is BUSY. My best friend in all the world (Kara, duh) threw a rock-n-roll birthday bash for me. I'm not getting any older though . . . . just so you know. It was a blast! Thanks to all involved!

Well folks, here they are

So here are the few pictures I have of our rafting expedition. I can't seem to find my c.d. of the pictures so I took these off my sister-in-laws facebook page. I'm thinking that is why they are fuzzy?

So it was super fun, but do you see how flipping that thing over could have been a little scary with 8 kids? (I'll b honest. . . . it was TERRIFYING)

Adventures in the great outdoors (well . . . . in Idaho)

As some of you may know (and some of you don't) --I took my kids with my sister-in-law and her kids up to Idaho for a little over a week. We had a blast. Without boring you with some long, over-written post I will simply post some pictures--enjoy.

One more thing, we went white water rafting--and somehow our raft tipped. It was actually really scary--we had 8 kids with us, 3 of those 8 being 5 yr. old triplets. I can't seem to find the c.d. that has a few pictures of us all rafting . . . . I'll post them when I find it!

The perfectly complete nutritious meal . . . . .yeah, right

Ben taught the kids how to use a B.B gun while we were up there. And they are all snipers, just like their Mom! Seriously folks, all 3 of them hit a cup on a fence --maybe 35-40 feet away, on their first shot! (so did I) They can also all fish a river wading up to their armpits at times almost as good as their Dad. But remember how I'm not good at remembering a camera . . . . yeah, no pictures of the fishing.

First the lessons . . .



Then the fun
