Cheer Camp

This week was the cheer camp, put on by the cheer and dance teams at the high school. Brinley loves going every year, and she always has so much fun!

Field Day

This morning was Brinley and Hunter's field day at school. I spent the morning with Brinley's class, and they had a ton of fun at all the stations. Hunter's class went in the afternoon, and they only got to do one station before they got rained out.

Flower Planting

This evening the Scouts did a service project planting flowers at a local park. It was a bit rainy and dreary, but they did a great job and even got to play under a double rainbow when they were done!

Memorial Day

Traditionally we go to Salmon and go camping for the Memorial Day weekend, but this year most of the group wasn't able to go for one reason or another. So we decided just to go to Salmon for the weekend, and stay in town. Cahl's dad and his wife know a guy who owns a few empty acres just down the street from them, and he agreed to let us park our trailer and stay there. It is the perfect spot!! Right in town, yet tucked back in some trees with a creek running through it. Cahl went up Thursday with the big trailer and got everything set up, and the kids and I headed up Friday evening after all their school stuff. We spent Saturday hanging out, and we took a buggy ride up to UP lake with Jim and Helen. We ran into snow near the lake, but Cahl and the kids made it all the way to the lake! It was still half frozen, but so pretty!

Sunday we spent with Gabrielle and Jared and their boys. Brinley and Hunter loved riding the pony, and the big boys even got to help out with tagging, vaccinating and castrating some of their calves.

Monday was a low key morning before we headed home. It was a great visit, and we're all excited to go back for July 4th!

Habitat Diorama

Brinley's class did a big unit on habitats, and they each chose an animal to do research on, and make a diorama to go along with. Brinley chose the Komodo Dragon, and she did a great job at her class presentation today!
