Red Butte Gardens minus the gardens

We went to Red Butte Gardens on a free admission day last fall!
There are not really any pictures of the gardens, but lots of this fam :)

Twin Falls Trip

So, we made the trip up to visit our friends the Dilworths again last summer and true to form, didn't take any pictures of them or us all together... We're real good at that :) We were touristy a little and saw Shoshone Falls, and the Snake River. We also saw Toy Story 3 with them and grilled steaks and celebrated Father's Day with them.

Valentines Day 2010

I forgot about these treats!
It's just popcorn,
v-day m&m's
and then melted white chocolate chips
mixed up
Yummy and so easy :)

1 of the fun photo apps on my phone is "color splash"...
Max was being funny one night....
funny photos ensued....
and my cute slipper socks :)

so, I missed out on the cute photo of Max when it started pouring down a rain/snow mix...
so, Jake volunteered to try to get him to re-en-act it....
it's a close copycat, but I've gotta be quicker on the trigger....

Easter/Spring Break Recap

Sorry, the pictures are all out of order...my blogging skills have been lost and I can't find them...

Easter Sunday

Since it was a month ago now, I guess I should give a little recap of our Spring Break trip to California and Easter. We had a great time! It was pretty cold and windy part of the time we were there but we got to visit lots of friends and family and enjoy the annual easter egg hunt on the ranch.

Max on a mission!!

Thank You.

What I did on my Fall vacation

We had 5 glorious days off for Fall Break and the weather was perfect so we turned it into a great "Stay-cation" and became tourists about town.

We started out Thursday at Boondocks. Mini-Golf, arcade games, really expensive hamburgers and Go-Karts. Sorry no pictures of go-karts. We were too busy racing around the track, or in my case, trying to stay ahead of the grandma in the next kart. Who knew old ladies were so competitive?

This girl slept through almost the whole trip.

Friday, we went downtown

and discovered Jim's new favorite restaurant.Brazilian Grill.
You know one of those places with the big salad bar and meat is brought around on skewers. yummy!
The dessert was really delish too!

Saturday we finally made it to the ZOO.

There was a lot of pointing going on...

We saw a few animals...

but then Jake kept getting attacked by wild creatures...

and Sam had to tame them...

We wrapped up the vacation with the Barnyard Boo at Thanksgiving Pt. I was a little tired of picture taking so...

Overall we had a great time together and made lots of fun memories to keep us warm as the temperature dips and we start hermitting inside for the long bleak winter.

OK maybe it won't be such a bad winter :) Let's try to end on a positive note :)
