Camping...Red Fish Style

MJ and I had the opportunity to go and spend some quality time with my family camping at Red Fish Lake! It was one of the best camping trips ever! My sister Megan even flew up from Texas to go with us! Here are a few of the things that we did to make this trip sooo awesome:

Splashed in the Lake:

Played Ninja Destruction:


Filmed our very own Harry Potter Movie:

From the Beach!

Our little family was able to take a vacation to Sarasota, Florida with some members of my family! We stayed in a condo that was right on Siesta Key Beach. Siesta Key Beach is ranked as the #2 beach in the world! We were also able to visit with my Aunt Marty and Uncle Richard.

Thanks to Dad, Mom, Megan and Annemarie for such a great time!

Good Times in Idaho!

MJ and I had a great time visiting my sister and her family in Idaho this past week. Here are a few of the things we were able to do:

Play at the splash park:


It amazes me how much MJ loves the water, definitely daddy's girl!


Eating at Craigo's - The best pizza place on the planet in my opinion!



Going to the Tauphas Park Zoo:



MJ loved the goats!

Thanks to Erin and her family for such a great time!

"A JEEP IS WAY MORE FUN THAN A MOTORCYCLE." SJ

LJ is visiting her sister right now so when I get home from work it is a little lonely!
SJ and I decided to to go do a little exploring in my Jeep.
It was tons of fun!!!

There were some great views!

Of course we had to see how well the jeep handled in every condition.

Overall it was a great afternoon and in SJ's words, "Jeeps are way more fun than Motorcycles."

Miss you lots LJ.

Fun in the sun!

We are loving the warm weather that we are having! Here are some of the things that we have done recently to enjoy the great sun and the outdoors:

A little bit of swimming:

A little more fishing:

A little bit of waiting before going......

To the mountains for tin foil dinners and smores!

Great family pic! :) Well, we tried!

More fish please!!

Last week we were able to go on our first fishing trip as a family! We were able to catch 3 rainbow trout (I caught 2 of them, but don't mention that to DJ, hehehe!!) MJ loved the slimy feel of the fish, which is funny cause DJ loved the slimy feel so much that he would rub the fishies on his face when he was little! We had lots of fun, and can't wait for more fishing trips to come!
