Summer Fun

We have had so much this summer! Camping, campfires, smores, hot dogs, fishing...We can't wait until next summer to have little Ashlyn along on our adventures!!


We went to the demo derby in Rexburg. This is my 2nd time but my first with Enoch there. He had to work last year. Our fave was Batman and Robin! They really didn't last very long....



A couple weekends ago, we went camping by Heise and I caught my first REAL fish! Ashlyn helped! It was pretty interesting trying to sleep with that preggo belly. Enoch packed absolutely everything we would need. He's such an Eagle Scout! We cooked hot dogs over the fire and I had just sat down with my ketchup and mustard smothered goodness...and one fell off and used my leg as the path to the campfire. I was covered in red and yellow. Enoch only thought I dropped my hotdog and then I lifted up my leg. I could tell he tried not laugh but he couldn't hold it in.
I wasn't as patient as Enoch was when it came to fishing. I want instant satisfaction and he could sit by the river all day and fish. Good thing I don't have to fish for a living...


We had a fun 4th at Rigby Lake. Look at my belly! Goodness...that's not a maternity suit by any means but I made it one. Enoch buzzed of his hair the day before...and his head was roasted by the end of the day...That kid and sunscreen...you would have to tie him down and mist him with it to get it on him. We had fun splish splashing around and eating shave ice.

We had a fun family dinner at Enoch's parents house earlier this summer. Everyone was there for it and it just so fun. We made burgers and hot dogs, good ol pasta salad and the piece de resistance, smores!



After eating the main meal, the boys took it upon themselves to rid the property of pesky birds. Since Enoch's parents were re-siding their house, they destroyed all the birds nests...These are very vengeful birds...they pooped on their cars and driveway all day long everyday. There was no point in ever washing the cars because they would be pelted by the end of the day...Enoch with his bow and Joesph with the pellet gun took care of some of them. It was the funniest thing to watch. A few weekends before I went out to their house to wash my car and my father-in-law was out with the pellet gun going after those winged marauders .
