Camera Phone Photo Purge #1

When I forget my camera I use the camera on my phone as a backup but until today I never knew how to retrieve them to share. There are 70+ photos downloaded to my computer that I will share over the next few weeks. I'll start with the recent ones and work my way backward.

Family day found us out in the foothills enjoying the beautiful weather today.


Last weekend at the first annual Boise Rec Fest....Trying to make Uncle Mark proud.

Swimming lessons a few weeks ago.

Watermelon!

When Lil' was young she had an allergic reaction to watermelon. Since this is a known family allergy we have been diligent in making sure Lil' didn't eat it. For several months this has been an issue for Lil' as she REALLY, REALLY wanted watermelon. I decided recently that now that Lil' is able to communicate what she feels happening to her I would let her try watermelon. After getting her pictures taken she got to have it for the first time since she was very small. She loved it and had no adverse reaction. She has been enjoying it throughout this hot weekend. Yay for watermelon!!!!

More Four Year Old Pictures...Daddy's Fav's

Four Year Pictures Are Finally Done....

Draw Your Dad

For many years (even before my girl came along) the Father's Day newspaper has been a favorite. I just love looking at all the pictures drawn by kids of their Dad's. This is the first time that Lil' submitted a picture. Here is a picture of her picture since not all of you are able to get the Idaho Statesman.



We will sneak it into next Sunday's newspaper when she is home from her California adventure and is ready to celebrate Father's Day with her Dad.

Fun Summer Days

Yesterday Lil' went on a field trip to the Idaho Botanical Gardens with her school friends. Since she hasn't been to school in a few weeks she was excited to see everyone and they all seemed excited to see her too.

Here they are learning how to have an earthworm race.



And here they are making their own clay earthworm.



Today was free fishing day. Lil' has been wanting to go fishing for a while now so this was a good chance to test her commitment. She lasted about an hour including a lunch break.

Muffin Pan Meals

Mama saw this idea over the weekend and knew Lil' would love putting together a muffin pan meal for lunch today.
