Aquarium

We Traveled to the Boise Aquarium to see all the fishes. It was so fun! We saw sea horses, frogs, birds, turtles, sharks, eels, and so much more. Traxton was scared to touch anything but Briggz and I touched a shark. Briggz wanted to touch everything. We even got to feed the sharks. Papa had to grab Briggz a couple times before he fell in. It was so fun!

4th of July

This 4th of July we spent in Bosie with Harmonie and her three kids, Ririe, Miranda and Rhys.

It was so much fun with parades, face painting and water fountains. We found a great spot to view the parade - in the shade, nice and cool. All the Florida kids got cold! When we got to the park we got right in line for face painting. Ri wanted to be a pirate and Miranda wanted a rainbow. Rhys didn't want a thing to do with it! It wasn't a Blanding, UT 4th of July , but we did have fun. (The neat thing about the 4th in Blanding is seeing everyone who comes home and renewing friendships.) We walked around the park and saw really cool sidewalk art. The kids got to vote on the ones they liked the best. They even got a chance to draw a picture of their own on the sidewalk. We went to the fireworks and fell exhausted into bed!

Grammy's Wash

Somehow RR ended up in my dryer.   I think he thought it would be a fun place, but soon found out it scared him to death.   Then, we were so mean and made him wait there until we took a pic!!!

GlowSticks

I bought glowsticks for all my grandkids. We had a sleepover in Grammy's room at the hotel and it was so much fun!!!

Memorial Day 2012

This Year we had the chance to spend Memorial Day with Trevor, Niki and the girls. We went to the park and played, we also went shopping. I just loved spending time with these girlys.

Actually this is a town that was settled by Ririe ancestors.

Children's Museum

Sunsets

So, I didn't think that anywhere was more beautiful than San Juan, but down here I found that there are places ALMOST as beautiful. We have a western view and have seen some beautiful sunsets.

Moving

MOVING DAY!!!

So, Dad got moved and then Avery and Trevor loaded up the rest of our things and we headed south to the desert. Meeting us in Tucson were 9 wonderful Bear Canyon Ward members who along with Trevor and Niki, had us unloaded in less than an hour.

So getting stuff from our 5-bedroom home to fit into our 2-bedroom apartment wasn't easy. Good thing we had such a great yardsale. We still brought too much stuff with us! We have two bedrooms, two bathrooms and then our "large" living area which includes our kitchen, dining room and living room!
