Idaho YAY...2009!!

A little re-cap of my family reunion in Idaho. Because of problems I was having getting my pics on my computer, it has taken a while. Wow, the reunion was almost a month ago!
Our family was the first one to arrive. We drove the seven hours to the turn-off, and drove the next hour over bumpy, dusty roads to our favorite campground just to find this....

We eventually found another place to camp, and then had to drive an hour back to cell phone service to contact the rest of the family. After a crazy LONG day of relocating camp, and finding a place where there was an outhouse, we settled in for a fun week.

Painting rocks...my brother Darrin loves Sponge Bob, along with most of the camp there!! He is talented don't ya think!?!

Lexlee's cookie rock.

Couple years apart for these two, but they are"brothers from another mother"...so they say!

Jibbity, and cousin Ben's bike which she named "Rosie", and rode everywhere, even to the short walk to the outhouse.

Lexlee and Ashie inside the tent! Jibbity performing some song she made up!

Hunter Dan and Jibbity and our glow sticks that we had around the campfire at night. Ashie's favorite place to be, standing on the bench of the picnic table..."grazing"

Bug jumping off the "man test" area of the creek.

My Mom...she is crazy fun, and later on started a massive water fight!

My cutie niece and her fish...can't remember his name, but she did name it.

Grandma gave buckets, and shovels to the kids...did Ashie get dirty?

Yes...she did!!!!

This helped though!

Grandma and Lexlee created this.

We had sooo much fun, and look forward to next year. I LOVE spending time with my family!!! I miss you all! I have about a million more pics of all my family, but I'll save those for another time!:-)

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!!

I'm Back!!!, but where are my pictures?!!

I'm back, we are home, the unpacking is done, and the laundry is started but will probably never end!!!! We had a wonderful time, with lots of mosquitoes,(we're not big fans of the little pests(but who is?) We almost lost my Dad to West Nile Virus three years ago, I'll have to tell more about that one later!) I can't wait to share all the pictures, but for some reason I can't seem to get them all on my computer. DANG!!! Here's just a couple of the beautiful wilderness we were in, and one that has an interesting story to go with it!:-)

I can't wait to catch up with everyone...lots to do today!!! I've already been to the Dermatologist with Jibbity this morning, and we have orthodontist appointments this afternoon. Bug and Lexlee are heading to their Dad's after their appointments for another reunion. So the laundry is top priority!! I'm hoping that after the little girls are in bed I can spend some time visiting!!

I have missed everyone out in bloggy land!! But oh how great it was to spend time with my family! (I LOVE you all, and already miss you!)

It's awesome to be back home!!!
