Vacation In Northern Idaho

We just got back from a trip to northern Idaho for a week of vacation. It was wonderful! We did so many really fun things and literally took almost 100 pictures. Here are just a few from the different outings we went on.


We started the week at Mandi's in-laws' cabin near Coeur d' Alene. It is so gorgeous and right on the lake, so we got to do some boating, jet skiing and fishing. Thanks Mandi and Will!



From there we went to Priest River and we took Jace to a small race track where he could ride his 4 wheeler. Isn't he such a stud!






The next day we went out on the boat and I did a little water skiing. Jace decided that he REALLY wanted to try but we didn't have any little skis for him, so he said he would just swim out to the end of the rope and hold on and we could pull him that way. So we did. Don't worry, we only put the boat in gear, but it was enough to pull him a little and he thought he was pretty sweet.




The day after that, we went for a 4 wheeler ride with Tim's family. It was so much fun and so beautiful!










And the next day Tim and his dad went on a fishing trip while I went shopping with his sister Nikki. Notice the little friend they made. Tim said he just stayed there and watched them forever. They didn't do too bad fishing either.








We ended the week by going to our family reunions. Unfortunately they were on the same day and not close enough to each other to go to both, so Tim took Jace and went to the Yount reunion and I took Paityn and went to the Solum (Grandma Carol's family)reunion. I didn't get to take any pictures because my camera was dead, but here are Jace and uncle Chad and aunt Kristin kyaking on the lake.


WHAT A GREAT VACATION!

Move Over Tiger Woods!

Mandi and I went to visit my mom for a couple of days and she suggested we go golfing...I guess you could call it golfing. We had a great time even though it took us about 5 hours and numerous "play throughs"! I love to golf, but don't get the opportunity very often because it is not the easiest thing to do with small children. This was my first time out this year and I was pretty rusty for a while. Oh well, you can't expect much when you only play once or twice a year.



My mom and Austin getting ready to hit the links. Yes, I realize that Austin is now taller than all of us.


Mandi may not golf much but she sure looks cute in the attire!
