Fourth of July 2011

Well, we had a great time on our mini vacation up north. Friday night Bruce and I went a night earlier then Chris, but he met us up there Sat. afternoon. Friday night Bruce and I checked into the hotel room, enjoyed the evening and went to bed. Sat. morning, we wanted to go to Rexburg to the Temple there, so we drove all the way to it only to find it closed because they had no water. We headed back to Idaho Falls, to the hotel as the Temple there is closed for construction. So no Temple this weekend. We went back to the hotel and ate lunch and watched tv until Chris arrived, after he got there, we got ready to go to Driggs, Idaho to see the 4th celebration with Glen Beck. It was awesome and we were there from about 5 pm until midnight. We went back to the hotel which was about an hour away or so and went to bed. Yesterday we started early and went to Yellowstone, we took lots of pictures and I will share some here with you. We got back in town around nine and went to the Outback for dinner. Then headed over to the Hotel, and went to bed.










This morning I woke up not feeling well, my stomach was yucky so we headed home and arrived around noon. It was a great time and we are so happy we went.

Mothers Day Weekend in Pictures






 The first picture is the wood that I used for my garden, it was wood that Matt had built Beckham a car out of while there were here, so instead of wasting the wood I used it for my raised garden. I have cucumbers and squash in the big one and the little one is going to have peppers in it. I also want to put tomato plants in containers this year.

The second set of pictures are of my Mothers Day gifts, Chris gave me tulips from his garden in a pretty vase. And Bruce gave me a Kindle and flowers and a charm . The cake was great too. It was also fun to talk to all the family's that live far away . We just love hearing from them. I hope you all had a nice Mothers Day too.
