happy 9th birthday thisbe!

at the end of july we took a trip to idaho. the kiddies and i plus grandma hopped in her car at 4:30 in the morning and got started on our drive. the drive went pretty smoothly except for bronwyn's almost constant screaming and a huge blow-out poopy diaper. (which we didn't catch until it was out of the diaper stinking up the car and bronwyn's hands all dirty in it. disgusting) well after 15 1/2 hours we arrived and a wonderful time visiting with family for a few days. thisbe and magnus got to try fishing for the first time. sadly no fish.

than we headed up north to yellowstone national park. saw quite a few animals, including these.

this huge dragon fly, (he was about as big as my hand)

and some cool sites

the next morning at 2:30 washington time we started out home again. this time the kids slept almost the whole way. and as long as we had a movie in while bron was awake she didn't scream. this allowed us to drop a couple of hours off the drive time.  

it's sprinkler time around here. the kiddies race around it with umbrellas trying not to get wet.

bron was having fun too until she got wet. she did not appriciate getting spinkled on, not one little bit.

we enjoyed our first day at the park this summer. bron even kept on her oversized hat.

magnus set out to make a gun while there. he used a couple of sticks and some grass to tie them together. the grass unfortunatly didn't hold too well so there was a few tears as a result, but he sat and worked at it for at least 15 minutes trying to make it work.

i am so glad that summer is finally here. now i can only hope the northwest weather will hold up.

i just uploaded all the lego pictures on flickr from their lego class. click on the picture to see them all.
