Whistler Trip

In September, Daniel and I went on a little weekend getaway to Whistler, Canada.  We went with 6 other couples for a fun mountain bike trip.  This is when I decided I kinda liked mountain biking with my hubby.

This is the view from our condo we stayed in, overlooking the Olympic park.  It was beautiful.

We actually stayed in the Olympic village and walked these paths plenty each day.  There was a lot of shopping and eating to be done.

This is the ski hill.  In the summer it is the downhill bike hill.

One day Danny and the guys rented downhill bikes and got to go experience this sport.  They loved it and will definitely be doing it again someday.

Just having some fun taking pictures one night with the Olympic rings.

One day when the guys were out riding, us girls got to go play around on some of the easy trails.  I loved it!

 

Another day Danny took me out for a ride.  We had fun being playful and spending time together.

Grant's preschool days

Grant started school this year also.  I guess you can call it preschool.  He goes 1 day a week to a friends/neighbor's house and then his friend comes over to our house 1 day of the week.  We have some one on one instruction with the boys and they love it.  They get to play some too so it is a win/win situation.  As you can tell he was very excited to be grown up and go to school.

School Dayz

Ali LOVES school and couldn't wait to go back to school.  She is now an old 4th grader.  Her good friend and her got the same class this year and she can't wait for all the socializing she is going to have!  She is growing up sooooo fast and Grant and I are going to miss her throughout the day.

As you can tell she was excited and got up and ready a half an hour early.

Camping pictures

We went camping once this summer in July.  I don't care for camping much, but camping on the lake for a few days is my type of camping!  I just wanted to get some pictures on, so they aren't in any particular order.

Ali got to try out skiing.  I can't wait for her to try again next year, she did great!

Our family tube ride!

Grant and Ali found some frogs.

Kinda embarrasing, but it shows his great tan!

The water was a little cold for Grant!

Summer vacation so far

We started our Summer Vacation off with a little trip down to southeastern Idaho for my baby brother's wedding.  It was fun to see all of our family and friends.

While we were there we played a little too with some boat rides,

Some tubing, 

and some goofing off.  Grant cracks us up all the time with his funny faces.  When I downloaded my camera this is what I got and we laughed and laughed.  So I decided to include them all so you all could have a nice laugh too!

Some of us did a little bike riding

and a little hiking.

And Trisha got herself a new CAR!

Summer is here!

 Summer is officially here at our house today!  Ali's last day of school was yesterday and we finally finished our play-set yesterday.  After 2 weeks of prepping for this baby and putting it together and laying the mulch, it is ready for some summer use.  The kids were out on it first thing this morning in their pj's and that is fine by me.  I'm glad they are enjoying it.

Here are a couple random photos I found on my computer from last month.  

Happy Summer everyone, hopefully the sun sticks around for a while!
