Camping at Gilmore














+
















We went camping, fishing and 4-wheeler at Gilmore, which is a old mining town and now a ghost town by Salmon. We all had a blast riding and fishing with Jordan's aunt and family (Lori, Dennis, Christine and Shantell). Jordan's 4-wheeler broke down the last day on the last ride and had to get towed home. It was very steep and he did a great job. His Uncle Dennis and councin Shantell are in these photos helping him. Jayde had a blast "going for a ride".

Utah Trip for Memorial Weekend
















We went to Utah for Memorial Weekend to visit my parents. We met up with my two sisters in Lehi at Thanksgiving Point where Jayde had a fun time playing in the water. While in Fillmore we went for 4-wheeler rides and picnics.

4th of July
















Mom and Dad were able to come and see us again this year for the 4th of July. Temps were in the low 80. Man it was a nice weekend. We even had to wear jackets.
I took them to Cave Falls in Yellowstone, which is actually not in the main part of Yellowstone and is beautiful.

Building the Garage













Tom has pretty much built this garage all on his own with the help of friends. He designed and is now getting ready to roof the building. The camper and soon to be all our toys will go in the garage, which means I will get my garage back for the vechiles. It is 41 feet long by 18 feet and 20 feet tall. It is a big building. Our trailer looks so small in it! Tom also built Jayde a play area with the swing set that has its own "bouncer". He also built me a neat corner for my garden (that will look better soon) with a log fence and arbor. It looks cool and will look cooler once I work more in that corner. Man I have a good husband!

Kauai Adventures





































Tom and I got one full day to ourselves with mom and dad watching the children in the condo and pool-side. We decided to go for a snorkling trip on the Napli Cost (where Jarasic Park was filmed), which is the side of the island that you can only get to by boat, helicoptor or foot (miles of a hike). We saw whales, dolphines, turtles and spectacular scenery. We had a blast! Mom and Dad also got one full day to themselves, without children, and they went for a ATV/kayake adventure. They also took a couple more hours and went ziplinning - which we all need to go and do in Park City.

One day mom, dad, Jordan and I went snorkling and swam with turtles, sharks (no kidding), dolphins and many many fish. Tom and Jayde hung out together on the beach!

Fun in the Sun
























































We spent 7 days on Kauai and 3 days on Ohau, with a total of a 10 day vacation. It was not long enough. Tom decided that we will move here and he will teach surfing lessons and I will do PR for some resort. Sounds good! You all can visit us here!






Jordan learned how to boogie board (the board is sitting in his room), Jayde played in the sand and water, Tom and Jordan sea kayaked, mom and dad learned how to snorkle along with Jordan, well we just had a blast!
