This is their property! Just under 400 acres! What an awesome view they have to wake up to in the morning. You can see their house on the left!

A Day at the Ranch

Sittin' Pretty!


Yesterday we saddled up (figure of speech) and drove to my friends parents' house outside of Marsing for a day at the ranch! We always have such a nice time there! The kids played on the playground, went swimming, rode horses and just enjoyed the scenery. Emme invited Hudson along and he got to ride a horse for the first time! Both Em and Hud were very brave on such a big horse! Above are a few pics of our fun adventure.

The Art of Undressing?

A ten minute rain shower made this little girls day =)

He's crawling!

Levi's been crawling for a month now, so here's a video for those who have not seen this little man in action :)

Emme de france??

Check out Emme's elite bike riding skills!

Foof for Emme

I love saying that word "foof". Anyway, here is the final product of the pictures I commissioned from April! She is a creative genius for sure. I love how a lot of it is 3-D, like the flowers and birds nest. I think I am going to use some hot pink grosgrain ribbon to hang them, with big bows at the top. What do you think?

Levi standing =)

Levi pulled himself up on his toy today....quite impressive since he just started crawling last week!!

Art makeover of the hog trip pic

I did a little photoshop love on this pic to make it cool looking. Feel free to save the pic to your computer and print it.....I uploaded it in high quality.

Yellowstone Hog Ride '07

Here are a few pics from my recent motorcycle trip with Josh, Jay, Rick, Pat, Matt and myself. We went to Jackson, WY then to Yellowstone.....over to the sawtooth mountains and back home to Boise...all on mountain roads, it was a great ride which spanned over 3 days.

Bernie

Well, you wouldn't believe it if I told you (because it was such a short visit), but my brother Bernie and buddy Kyle were here for a "stop over" on their way to AK! Emme had a such a great time with them, and Bern got to see Levi for the first time!:) Here are some pictures of their little visit.
I realize Emme looks homeless, but hey, at least she's smiling!
Bern and Kyle with the kiddoes.

And an extra for your viewing pleasure. This is where I found Emme after 30 seconds of her left to her own devices. She was painting her nails. Ummm yeah. Her little stool gets her in a lot of trouble.
The finished product.
