Glacier Part 1

I could not believe how pretty this place was!  So, there are quite a few "pretty" pictures.  SORRY!

 

Christa, Jarom, John and I on a "Red Bus Tour" on the Going-to-the-sun road.  It was nice to not have to drive so we could just look out the top and take pictures.  I probably won't do it again, but will definitely go back to Glacier when our kids are older to let them appreciate the beauty too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jarom requested a picture in this shirt.  Don't remember what movie it's from?

 

 

Our cool red bus. 

Alex turned 4!

Alex turned 4 on June 28th.  I can't believe he is that big already.  He has grown out of some of his screaming fits which I am grateful for! :D  He is such a sweetie sometimes, giving me lots of compliments on my hair and clothes.  He is also really good about saying "Thanks for making the yummy dinner."

Alex was so excited when he opened his LeapPad.  He had been cutting pictures of the windows phone out of magazines for several months and kept saying he was "wishing for an ipad."  Not quite an iPad, but fun enough and educational too.  I was excited for him to get this, I will admit, I like new electronics and gadgets...even for my kids!  It will be great in the car on trips and airplane rides.  Plus, he can share Nathan's Leapster games too!

 

 

For his birthday dinner, he requested spaghetti!  Then we had a blue funfetti cake with blue frosting (his fave color is blue!)

The great ladies at the gym playcare made him this birthday crown and he wore it for at least a week...including most of the time we were at Glacier National Park for the 4th of July!

Boise and Color Me Rad 5k

Owen loved the cats at my parents house.  He couldn't wait to play with them every day!

I took the kids to the zoo with my Grandma and some cousins.  Christa came with her sister and Jane as well.  A couple of hours is plenty of time at Zoo Boise.  The kids had fun.
My two wild ones.

McKenzie and I ran the Color Me Rad 5k together.  We had fun and the kids had fun color bombing us at the end too!

I made our awesome shirts. :)

These pictures were taken in April by our friend Jenni.  You can find her blog here.  She did a great job, and the kids had a blast.  She had them lauging quite hard about deer poop. :)  I think a couple of the boys' shots look like little model shots!
