Camping at the Snake River

Uncle Cody came home to visit so we all went camping at the Snake River. Where we had a great time fishing, boating, floating, playing games, doing crafts and roasting marshmallows. It was a nice trip and I took a ton of photos here are just a few. :)

Family fun after a busy day of moving

Once all the big furniture was moved out of the uhaul the kids thought a water fight sounded good. We started off with water balloons but then it turned into hoses and buckets. Lots of good fun.

Nyssa ThunderEgg Days

My new belly dance troop "Habibi Nada"  performed at the Nyssa ThunderEgg Days this weekend. We performed four group dances then a few of us performed solos. I did my Flamenco solo and my niece Mariah performed a very fun and pretty solo with wings. We had a great time but boy was it HOT. :)

Landon Michael Weideman

Mike's sister Ruby had Landon on July 12th, 4:04 p.m.! 7lbs 15 oz. 19 3/4 inches. We all went to see him yesterday after they had been home for a little while. We all took turns holding him while we watched Ruby open a few baby gifts and ate pizza. We all look forward to watching him grow up with the care of his four big sisters. :)

Family Reunion

Mike's family got together for a family reunion camping trip just outside of Council, Idaho.  We had a fun weekend filled with family fun; roasting marshmallows & hot dogs, sitting around the camp fire, making crafts and face painting, sleeping in tents and of course a few water fights. It was a great weekend. I took tons of photos but here are just a few. :)

Kids at Grandma & Grandpa's new place

We spent a day at Grandma and Grandpa's new house. The kids loved exploring all the new rooms, closets, basement and huge yard. We are looking forward to going back again soon.

4th of July

We celebrated the 4th of July at home this year by going to the Caldwell parade then to Memorial park to see the car show, eat snow cones and play. The kids had a great time and found a few friends while we were at the park. Owen had saved his money to buy another Real Nature preserved insect. This year he picked out a glow-in-the-dark scorpion key chain. Afterwards, we went to get lunch and home to relax and play in the pool. Later on we will BBQ and go watch the city fireworks. Happy Independence Day! :)

At the Car Show. Owen thought this one looked like a Hot Wheels.

Ashley said this is Alysha's purple car.
