August

 The last weekend of July/first weekend of August our ward had a campout up near Cascade and we were there for it! Nate and the boys slept in a small tent and Garrett and I slept in the back of the van one night and in another tent the next night. Highlights included playing in the creek catching snakes, heading up to Lake Cascade for an afternoon and visiting the closest reservoir that was FULL of baby frogs!



The boys did LOTS of fishing with Opa and Nate. They went out to Paddock reservoir a few times and up to Lucky Peak a bunch and even Kleiner park.



Nate's little brother and family came up for a weekend and it was so fun to get to see cousins! Nate and Aaron hiked Mt. Borah with Heaton and my dad even went part way. They loved it! Nate's all on board to get me to do it with him. It was a beautiful day for it and they both even got sunburned.






We spent a day at the lake on Opa's boat! The boys love the tube and digging in the sand and I love watching them play and eating all the snacks from the beach :)


Spencer started 1st grade...virtually! Man, this school year has been ROUGH! We both cried the first week, more than once. Spencer is a champ and fought through it and...here's hoping next year isn't a repeat of this year.

Other highlights:

We cut the rattail




Opa bought a new 4-wheeler


Nate didn't shave for like 6 weeks and also got to go hunting/scouting.


Spencer got a new glasses rx and onto his 6th pair of glasses in 8 months...
