Labor Day Weekend

We had a great time Labor Day weekend. I took two pictures, on of Saturday morning and the other one is Monday Morning. We enjoyed the weekend at the Bruneau Sand Dunes with Ed & Barbie Weigt and their three boys, Adam, Charles, & Cody and their friends. It was so good to spend time with all of them. Here are some things we did.
  • Saturday morning Breakfast Burritos and several attempts at setting up the satellite so we could watch the BYU-Oklahoma game on ESPN. (this was one of several places tried but not the last & final spot that gained the signal and gave us the enjoyment of the game.)


Other things that we did:
  • A trip to Walmart in Mountain Home
  • Buying watermelon and cantelope from two cute little girls at a fruit stand outside of Mountain Home
  • Lots of food
  • BYU Football game in Barbie's motorhome
  • More food
  • Trip to the Observatory where we looked through several telescopes. Looked at the moons on Jupiter, a nova, and close-up of the moon.
  • Searched and found scorpions with blacklights. Coolest thing ever, the scorpians are a flourescent green under the black lights.
  • A nice quiet sunday enjoying one another's company
  • A game with money moving all around the table a nd eventually into someone's pocket
  • A visit with Justin, Becky, and Audrey. (you'd think I'd get a picture of them)
  • Rick's Dutch Oven Cobbler (chocolate, it was amazing)
  • Monday was Breakfast and a quick gather up to head for home.

Here is Drage, the next weekend just chillin before the big BYU-Tulane game.




Go BYU

Camping????



It's Labor Day weekend and we are camping. 'Camping?' you say but you are adding to your blog. I know. Crazy. This is not the way I grew up camping but I love it. We are at the Sand Dunes near Bruneau, Idaho. I am sitting in an air-conditioned motorhome watching the BYU-Oklahoma game and adding to my blog on Uncle Ed's computer. Ed & Rick spent the morning setting up the Direct TV dish so we could watch the game this evening.
Also, this is one of two state parks in Idaho that has free wifi for computers. How fun. We have all enjoyed checking our email and surfing the Internet.
Happy Camping.

Summer Vacation is over?

I have been overwhelmed with school. Starting a new grade has really thrown me for a loop and I have struggled getting it together. It's sad to look back and realize that summer is over and school is in full swing. Here are the pics I was going to blog about. Enjoy.
