Pocatello

After a few days apart, Kiki was missing Kate enough that it was time to go get her. We rode to Pocatello with Grandpa Jack who had a little project to work on at Dave and Liza's.

The children play, heartlessly oblivious to the elderly man slaving away behind them.

Kiki has the cutest bum I have ever seen.

While Jack and Dave worked, Liza and I took the kids to a gymnastics place that has open play on the weekends. They loved the foam pit- they could run and jump in it to their heart's content.

There was a high platform the kids could jump from. Kate really wanted to try it but she was scared. I went up there with her, gave her some therapy, told her Jesus loved her, reassured her it was safe...

...and she took the leap.
I was really proud of her because she was very afraid but she screwed up her courage and she jumped anyway.


Then the grown-ups gave it a try.
I imagine that Liza will be posting a similar picture of me only I'm screaming more.

The Shelton's have a million dollar view from their back deck.
It's beautiful.
We came home Saturday night so we would be home to celebrate Father's Day with Bruce.
I think he had a good day- a few presents, a nice dinner, and time with his friend Jim and Jim's daughter Azlyn.

Azlyn had a ball with our magnifying glass.
The summer feels busy all of a sudden. We have started swim lessons, gymnastics, and are heading to the cabin this weekend, so we are definitely feeling like summer is flying by!

So sad I didn't get to come visit with you guys! Thanks for entertaining Jim and Azlyn...apparently for her next birthday it will need to be a magnifying glass!
