Dontcha just love IF?

We are back from hot and sunny Idaho Falls, and it's nice to enjoy the cooler weather here. We did lots of fun things with Aunt Rose and Uncle Jeff and the girl cousins. We went four wheeling (which Ammon LOVED), to the zoo, the sand dunes, the park, and rode bikes a lot. We also went to the dump (transfer station, for the PC) and Ammon said he wanted to drive a bulldozer when he gets bigger. Did you know that my sis can take whatever she wants to the dump for FREE?? And her garbage and water bill combined are $25 a month?? Let's all move to Idaho Falls!The kids had fun playing with their cousins 24/7 and it was sad to leave, but we had to come back and see Daddy!! We missed him too! We were gone for almost three weeks, and had a great time. I finally got to meet Alicia, who is my sista for sure! We had a girls night with Alicia, Leslie, and my sister Rose and I, which was fun. There was talk of reviving the Golden Girls in our later years, but when I heard I had to be the tall manly one, I was out. :)

Josh had the house all nice and clean, and we immediately trashed it, so I've been working on it (slowly) and getting caught up on emails and blogging. I had to give my sista a bad time for not having a computer, but after the first few days of withdrawl, it was nice to just be "disconnected" for awhile. Speaking of withdrawl, I think Liam is going through w/d from not being held and adored 24/7 by his girl cousins and aunt and uncle. Poor guy, he deserves to be held that much, cause he's so dang cute (of course!) but he just isn't receiving that same attention from his brother and sister at home. :O)

I was teasing my sister that her backyard was like a park (see the girls in the top of the playhouse), with a huge playground structure, an in ground trampoline, and lots of bike riding space. The kids had a blast there, and we are already planning a time when we can get together again. :)
