July Journeys

Having three girls is a lot of fun...especially when they all agree to have pigtails!

Emily, 7

Leslie, 4

Abby, 3... I am finally able to put pigtails in her hair, that is quite the milestone!

Caleb, 10.5 months (he didn't want to be left out).

At the beginning of this month we took a trip to Utah to see the Burrs. Greg's sister, Aubry and her family recently moved to Texas. We were all pretty sad to see them go.

The kids had a lot of fun!

All of the Burr grandkids with Dad and Mom Burr.

The following week my parents came to Victor for a visit. 

We took them to Coal Creek just past the Wyoming border to show them the beautiful wildflowers...which they LOVED!

Here is the view at the top of the Teton Pass. Greg gets to see this every day when he goes to work. Absolutely breathtaking!

We took them to see Jenny Lake which was SO BEAUTIFUL! 

They also got to see Falls Creek Falls in Swan Valley, Idaho. I really like waterfalls!

To top it all off we saw two moose, or as Brian Regan would say..."moosen". 

When my parents came they gave me some old pictures of myself. I gave a bunch of them to our kids because naturally they would want them, right?? I found this one on the counter in the bathroom with water all over it. Where's the respect??

Last weekend we took a day trip to Rupert, Idaho to hang out with some of my Flake cousins, aunts, and uncles. Some of them I hadn't seen in years. It was really fun!

Some of my favorite cousins: Anthony, Julia, and Laurel.

On the Flake side there are 7 cousins my age. It was really great to see 4 of them at this reunion!

Some mornings I wake up to beautiful sunsets like this! Sorry, this picture doesn't do it justice.

35 years old and feelin' it!

Kids are so cute when they are sleeping...

Yesterday we went on a short hike in Darby Canyon. Caleb loves being outside and typically looks like this when we go.

The girls had fun throwing rocks in the river and being outside too. We're so lucky to live so close to such beautiful places.

His smile brightens my day. He's starting to get some teeth on the top. 

Until next time!
