Hooray For Chores!

We had a family night the monday after school got out--all about chores!! We made new chore charts, talked about the importance of work and helping out our family, and even video taped the kids swearing with an oath that they would do their chores and obey mom (it was music to my ears). So far, they have done really well. It's a great sound to hear them bustling around in the morning, cleaning and wiping and scrubbing. NICE!! We'll see if it keeps up the whole summer!!

HAPPY CLEANING!!

Red Neck


We were washing the truck and doing some yard work the other Saturday. It was pretty hot and the kids were wanting some water fun! So Bill put a tarp in the back of his truck, we filled it with water and BAM--a Redneck Swimming Pool was born. They had a blast back there! You really know it's redneck when your kid is also in his superman undies! Eastern Idaho is wearing off on me!

Summer!

It's offically summer. We made our first trip out to the lake after the last day of school. It was heaven. We love the lake!! We went with some great friends and had a great day.

Brigg just chillin'--doesn't he look comfy!

We look forward to many more days at Bear Lake this summer! If any of you want to visit, we'd love to have you!!
