Lagoon and Byu




We left early Sat. Morning with a caravan of two cars. Dad and I in one car and Lauren, Troy, Corden and Calvin in the other. We went straight to Lagoon and spent the day there. The kids were all thrill seekers and went on all the scary rides. They even paid extra to go on the one that they hoist you way up in the air and drop you. They free fall until the cable catches you and then you look like you are flying high in the air. Dad and I took in the haunted house and the bumper cars and the performances. We loved watching the kids.

When we were all exhausted we went to Wilma and Merlins and spent the night. We went to church the next day and visited all day. Tara and her new baby boy came for a visit. Pam and Jeff stopped by and we enjoyed the whole day.

The next day we went to BYU and dropped Troy off at his new apartment. We traveled home and got home safe.

The next Wednesday Boise schools started and my youngest son started his first day as a Senior in High School. Thus, starts the ....this is the last time..........saga.

More Carnival pictures





The face painting was a hit. Corden, Lauren and Calvin all joined in the fun and helped out!

The Fuhrimans visit the Fuhrimans




David, Leticia, Gene and Jeremiah all visited Boise. We enjoyed their visit very much!! Leticia's sister Emi had a baby girl and they came for the blessing. I had Oma day and put on a carnival for the kids. We had all kinds of games and they won tickets for participation. Then, they bought their lunch with their tickets. Here is the hula hoop contest and the face painting. We enjoyed playing with Jeremiah. He reminds me so much of David when he was a baby. He is very sweet and affectionate.

Happy Birthday Krew!




Woody and Buzz. Those two words conjure up a lot of images. Most of them were represented at Krew's 2nd birthday party. There were aliens, cowboys and a space ship. It started with decorating a cowboy vest to go along with the hats and neckerchief. Then, we galloped on our pretend horses. We ate our aliens and finished with destroying the galactic pinata filled with candy and toys. Krew got his own Woody and Buzz and lots of toys from his friends he was leaving in Rexburg.
