Our Boys

Our boys are growing up.  Willy, 21, Noah, 16, Payton, 14.  We love the outdoors, this is a great place to go and take nature pictures, go motorcycle riding and go on hikes.  You boys look awesome!!!

Hats!

Family pictures are always fun!!!  The boys love to wear hats, so we had a hat picture so that everyone could be happy!!!!!  Gotta love making everyone happy!!!

Payton is so much like his dad!

Payton needed to get the two 4 wheelers in the back yard, he is so much like his dad, he decided to tow it, He thinks like Rhubin.  He did end up getting Noah to ride and steer the back one.  He is very much like his dad!!!Can you see Rhubin doing the same thing?  YES!!!

optical illusion!

When we were driving home, there was a river that looked like it was going uphill when we were driving down hill.  It was really cool to watch, we parked and went down and played by the water.  It was cool. 

Mount Rushmore walk way

We went on a walk by Mount Rushmore and we loved the back ground.  All of us trying to squeeze into the picture.  Lucky that dad has long arms!

look at the plane!!!

I like this picture because we are all looking at the sky rather than the camera!!! 

FAMILY FUN!!!

FINALLY TOOK SOME TIME TO GO AND TAKE SOME FAMILY PICTURES....FALL IS MY MOST FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR.....LOVE THE COLOR OF THE LEAVES.....FUN FAMILY PICS!!!

Brothers!!!

Hunting with these two is always a treat.....they are never serious!!!  At least they are getting along!!!

Payton making a splash!

Payton was quite the splasher!  He got pointers from "grandma" (a lady that was with us and we nick named her that).  She also loved to go through the water.  Payton and her soaked.  Good times!!!!

Noah playing in the water!

There was a creek close to our camp site, we all had a ton of fun going through the water trying to make the biggest splash and of course getting muddy and wet!!!!  Noah had a great time!

Crazy kids!!!

It was so pretty near our camp area, it is fun to see the leaves start to change colors.  I had the boys go up near some quakies, you can tell that they are not very serious...but it is a fun pictures.  They had a great time camping!  We have the best kids!!!

Dairy Lake

We took a ride to Dairy Lake.  It was a fun trail, we saw about 5 head of deer, it was really pretty there.  Rhubin and Payton took Rhubins 4 wheeler through the water to a island, then we had fun skipping rocks.  Rhubin won, he got 7!!!  It was fun.  

Our 4 wheeling crew!

Here was our trail of 4 wheelers and the crew we went with.  It was alot of fun.  Lots of memories made!

Old cabins!

Where we were camping in Leadore, there was lots of run down cabins, sheds, mining spots.  This old rail track for carts was neat.  There was lots of fun stuff to check out.  We like the old stuff to go through.  The kids found some old oil cans and horse shoes. 

Camping Weekend

We went camping with some friends over the weekend, we had a great time. There were 10 4 wheelers, and we went on some fun trails.  We had a great time as a family. Got to laugh alot and enjoy hanging out.  We did talk about Willy lots, as this is our families favorite thing to do.  We missed not having him there with us, but know that he is where he is suppose to be right now.  We will make up camping time when he gets back!!!  Good times camping, boy was it dusty!!!!

Rock climbing

There was this huge rock in the camp site area, Rhubin and Noah were the only ones to climb it.  They are the bravest!!!  Great bonding time for the two of them!!!

Cave Falls

When we were on our family day drive, we drove to West Yellowstone and we went to Cave Falls.  It is really cool, the falls are fun to watch, you can feel the water where you stand.  We had a good time!

Family Fun

We took a family day and went to Island Park and we rented canoes and floated the river.  It was quite fun, Payton was wiggly and Mom kept thinking that we were going to capsize.  We had a system down by the time we got to the end.  We enjoyed our time together.....

Oh No we tipped over!!!

Rhubin and Noah were in a canoe together and they were trying to splash Payton, well they tried alittle to hard and cap sized, their canoe was full of water, thank goodness it was a shallow spot.  They were so wet!  It was fun floating the river.  You have to learn to work together to make it go right. 

Rhubin-helping with horses

Rhubin got to help twice with walking horses, he got to help walk one of the horses to help cool it down after a run in the arena.  Then the last day, as Mike was teaching the boys a few things, Rhubin also got to help walk and water the horses before loading them up to head for home.  Rhubin had a good time.
