Good morning!! I have a REALLY funny one of Robert but I didn't think he would like me putting it on here!

Hallenberger Reunion 2010

We went up up Grand Jean for this reunion. This was my first time up this way and it was so beautiful! I could live without the horseflies though! The first day was just kind of relaxed....uhhhhh the joys of camping...RELAXING!!

Here the kids are making a little wading pool with grandma Jenny and Johanna(not me).

Yes that is a snake. I think Adeline and I were the only ones not grossed out by it! LOL WOW I have a great tan line!

We went down on the river where there were some natural hots springs and some HUGE rocks as the boys would say. They loved climbing up on them.
Here are all the kiddos in a little pool we made....nice and warm!

Me Heidi and Johanna. She is an foreign exchange student from Germany that lived with Heidi and her family their senior year...she was back for a visit!

Oh ya you better believe it!

The boys really like playing chess. Not sure how they learned how to play but they almost beat grandma Jenny a couple of times!

Davenport Reunion 2010

We went to 1000 springs resort over by Hagerman this year and boy was it HOT! It was great seeing the Davenport family again and getting caught up with one another! Lucky for us we stayed next to Trudy and her air conditioning!

I got this little tent at a garage sale for 5 bucks! The best 5 bucks I ever spent.
Adeline getting some girl time! Ohhhhhh did she like that!
Uncle Ben playing baseball with the boys.

The boys watching their dad playing horse shoes.

Such grace! LOL I played too but of course I am never in the pics.

WATER FIGHT!!!

The kids made these cute hats on the last day...Addy was the only one that would pose for me.

Boise River

We LOVE going up on the river! We stopped off at Badger Creek first and got attacked...I mean ATTACKED by mosquito's. Adeline had at least 30 of them on her and the bites to prove it. So we headed up the river and found this great spot.

The water was so blue.
I love this capture....and I didn't even stage it! I promise we feed her! She has always liked chewing on fabric! We love the RIVER!
Dad was off to the side fishing......

Heidi called me and told me about this cheeeeeeep water park she discovered in Nampa. I was allllll over that! We had a BLAST!!!!!!!! It cost me 8 bucks for the whole family! Thanks Heidi, that was FUN!! Can't wait to go back next week!

After visiting my friend Jessica in Portland and tasting her YUMMY freezer jam I had to give it a try! Can I just say EASY PEEZY...lemon sqeezy(as Elijah would put it!) It tastes sooooooo good too!

The girls wanted to get in on the action.

My little poser! This has got to me the best age to photograph!

So I think Elijah was in charge of activity for Family Home Evening and this is what he chose. Thanks Eli we had a great time!

While we were in Portland I gave the girls a bath and this is the first time Gweny really got into it! Cute to watch!

Adeline being the good helper that she is!
