More Fun & Games

Since our neighborhood pool isn't finished yet, we've been tagging along with my sister to theirs. Sam is becoming quite a little fish.

My good friend, Lissy and her husband Mark drove up from Utah for a quick visit this weekend. We had so much fun showing them around and taking in some of the Boise sights.

Walking along the Boise River

Sam had a full weekend!

We have had a ball with all of our visitors! Hopefully it won't be too long before someone else wants to check out the Treasure Valley. We've got rooms waiting!!

Happy Father's Day!

We had a very special Father's Day weekend. Friday morning Sam and I picked up our friend's, Ted, Sarah & Drew Gardiner, from the airport. They live in Utah, but we don't get to see them nearly enough and we were so excited to spend a fun, long weekend with them!

It was perfect weather for barbecuing and playing outside. And when the little ones went to bed, we played all of our favorite games.

Throwing rock in the Boise River. Sam couldn't get enough!

We had a blast! We haven't laughed that hard in a long time and can't wait for the next time!

Summer is here!

Now that we've been having warmer weather lately, we've been taking advantage! Last weekend, Bill had to work a few hours on Saturday, so Sam and I met him downtown for the Farmer's Market and lunch.

Sam has now started working on his dribbling skills. He spends 80% of our time outside practicing over and over. He'll start with one ball and when that one gets away from him, he finds another and starts over. He is a very determined little guy!

Taking a break from his workout

I turned on a Baby Einstein video for him last night so I could start dinner. He normally won't stay put for long, but when I realized it had been quiet for a while, I peeked over the couch to find him like this. Those jungle animals are fascinating!

It's a...

BOY!!!!

It's somebody's birthday...

I wonder who?

Bill turned 31 today. Happy Birthday, Baby!

We had my sisters and their families over for cake and icecream

And Sam tackled his cousin, Seth.
