| Cousin Ely loves and get's along with everyone. He grows by leaps and bounds every time we are able to catch up with him. Now he's three, can express himself well, and has lots of things to say. |
 |
| He has a zest for fun things :) |

This year, Grandpa's campout was different. Not many of the dad's could come. And since Rachel was joining in...all the other mom's also wanted to. We had lots of fun and mixed things up for poor Grandpa.

| Camping in Koosharem was a real treat--afforded by Uncle Jeff. |

| Family heritage at it's best. |

| I didn't hear Jordan's story with this photo till the next day when he prepared a talk for Primary on prayer. Jordan and Uncle Ben came to find Aunt Amy and the girls in answer to their prayer when the 4-wheeler wouldn't start. Jordan stayed with them while Ben went to get more gas. It was an experience that showed him a great example and strengthened his faith. |

| I think the kids like climbing on them more than riding them.... |

 |
| We drove through some spectacular scenery and visited some Anasazi ruins. |
 |
| Then we took our hike to Calf Creek Falls. Tessa was a champion and I enjoyed hiking with her the whole way. |
 |
| Wow. The reward. |
 |
| The next day, we spent a little time exploring at Fish Lake. It's another spot with some family memories that I enjoyed reminiscing about. |
 |
| Jenny, the brave soul, shared the piece for her Pocatello Civic Symphony audition. |
 |
| This is the "girl's hiking club" led by Grandma. :) |

| Grandcamp was a different kind of success this time around, but a success. |
