May!

These pictures are backwards, but we'll take what we can get.

We headed up to the mountains on Friday for some family camping time. There is this incredible place called Cub River just over an hour north of us in Idaho.






Water was everywhere!
This is the bridge in front of our campsite. We literally were on an island and had the whole thing to ourselves. It was breathtakingly beautiful.
My kids like to pose!
They sing "cheese" more than they say it for the pictures now!

Deven turned three on the 19th of May! We had a little party for him outside.

Uncle Thain entertained the kids well.

Handsome Deven in some new clothes from Grandma.
A week ago we got to camp with the Floyds. Even though we live only a half hour away from them, every time we get together I feel like that's too far! We love hanging out with them. It's funny, Jeremy is the Elder's quorum president is his ward, Nate's is the same in our ward. Stacey is the 2nd counselor in the primary in their ward, and I am the same in our ward. Fun times. It's good to have "old" friends that we can go a long time without seeing, and then pick up like it was yesterday when we do see them. Thanks guys!
All seven of the kids kept the fire going. They were all great campers! The rain didn't bother them a bit.


Nate and the kids by the Boise river. We went up there for his nephew's wedding. We stayed at a little hotel right on the river. They have a super biking/walking trail all along it.
April and me. It was really fun seeing so many of the Blaines. Hopefully most will come out to our house for the 4th of July.
The happy couple, Corey and Melanie...
Ben and Deven finally got to blow up a Christmas present from Grandma. Ben did a lot of the work himself.

Ben and Deven inside. These kids are living the dream. I hope being so spoiled doesn't ruin their adorable personalities!


That was May! We'll see what happens in June.

You guys are awesome.

I want one of those giant balls. Do you think I could fit inside it?

looks like a pretty great May! You sure live in a beautiful place... I just showed my mom your blog, we're here in washington visiting her--she says hello! :)

Awesome! That ball is the coolest toy I've ever seen! Your kids are lucky in so many ways.

Also, isn't Stacey supposed to be pregnant? She doesn't look it in that picture. Dang cute skinny pregnant people! ;*)

don't know if your parents are still in Paradise, but we're thinking and praying for them if they are... weird to see our little town all over the news.
