Buffalo Campground

We went to Buffalo Campground in Island Park for the weekend. It was awesome! It was beautiful there and the weather was perfect. We went with some friends from our ward (The Bennetts)

Clayton had so much fun fishing, and by fishing I mean just casting his line into the river over and over with a weighted plastic fish on the end. Quincy loved throwing rocks in the water, he would have been happy doing that the entire time! We went to Big Springs while we were there. Its a fish spawning area and there were a lot of fish to watch. On the way home we stopped by Mesa Falls because that water fall is always cool to see. It was a great weekend!

Our baby turned 2 today. Don't talk to me about it though, I am in denial. 

Time has flown by!

Quincy is such an easy going kid. He loves to play outside. He loves doing anything that his big brother is doing. We are so proud of Quincy, he is growing so much. He can point to all of his body parts and he knows almost all of the animal sounds. He is learning more words everyday. His laugh is contagious and his smile can light up the biggest of rooms (even if he gives his cheesy smile, which is most often) He has some awesome dance moves that he always displays. He loves animals (from a distance) and playing ball of any kind. 

I really think he might be the cutest 2 year old in the world. 

Quincy, we love you so much. We are thankful that you are part of our family. Mommy and Daddy are so proud of you! 

                                        

Fireworks

We love America and we love fireworks! Happy 4th of July! We are happy to live in this great country and enjoy all the blessings that come with it!

We went to Inkom today, they had a celebration there with bounce houses and other fun things for the kids. Our boys went "fishing" with a net for goldfish in a kiddie pool. They each got one. Clayton named his Lucky and he named Quincy's Silver. He was so excited about getting a bowl for them! 

disregard the incorrect year on their shirts… it is 2015, I just didn't get shirts for them this year. oops.

Floating the River

In Lava Hot Springs there is a great spot to float the Portneuf River. We went there today to try it out. The section that most people float is short, it's only about a half hour float then you can get out and walk back and do it again. We rented a two person float and planned on holding our kids on our laps. We went through the first rapid and Quincy was done! He hated it! The water was freezing I think that bothered him the most. I had to climb out of the river with him mid-float. Clayton on the other hand, loved it! He wanted to go again and again and again! He is our little daredevil.
