Idaho

We love our visits to Idaho. My parents live in a beautiful area, 1/2 mile from the Snake River. In the evenings, Brad and I put the girls to bed and then ride to the river on my dad's Rhino. It is an amazing ride at sunset! A couple of days ago, my dad led the way on his 4 wheeler. He took us through brush over six feet tall. There was a HUGE bull moose in the brush. My dad spooked him and he ran right between us. I was a little bit nervous and very glad we were not on foot. :)Last night, my dad took his employees and their spouses to Bar J Chuckwagon in Jackson Hole. He brought Brad and I along. I love Jackson Hole! My family is from Teton Valley, so I used to spend a lot of time in Jackson. I have so many fun memories.
We spent the afternoon walking around Jackson. This is my favorite candy store. I always pick the same thing and it tastes better every time.
Bar J is a working cattle ranch that hosts a dinner and show every night during the summer months. It is the home of the Bar J Wranglers. They perform all over the country.  The show was fabulous! We loved every minute of it!!

Slip 'n sliding with the Daybells

We have had a good time in Utah.  Brad's family is a lot of fun.  It was great to see everyone.   We spent one afternoon on the slip 'n slide.  Brad took sliding to a whole new level with the Superman approach.  He flew down the slide!  Addie had the ride of her life.




Saying Goodbye to Grandpa

We have been in Utah for the last week.  Brad's grandpa passed away and we were able to attend his funeral.  Grandpa Guy was the most AMAZING man.  We are going to miss him so much!!!
