Fun With Raif

Saturday Morning Fun...We licked baby puffs and stuck them all over Raif's face!
One for the memory books, he will deny ever playing with his sister's dollhouse...ahhhh, living proof!

Sun Valley, Idaho Part 7





These are pictures of the river that runs through Margaret and Charley's property. Colby and his dad moved some rocks to build a small dam. I promise you Charley and Margaret were there, I just didn't seem to get them in pictures. I think Margaret got some pictures on her camera, so I'll have to get them from her. For those of you with kids, I'm sure you know how hard it is to get everyone in pictures. We had such a great time and are so thankful that we could go spend time with them. Traveling with kids, especially babies, is a lot of work, but worth the effort. Even though they both probably won't remember the trip, the memories Colby, my mom, Colby's parents and I have made the trip memorable.

We got to swim at the golf club Charley and Margaret belong to. They had a great little pool for Bailey and a big pool that we could all enjoy. We had lunch there and Raif got his first taste of a pita chip. That night we went over to River Run Lodge to show my mom the ski slopes.





Sun Valley, Idaho Part 5





We took a hike a few miles from the house. There were tons of butterflies and wild flowers. Bailey had fun picking all of the flowers and making a bouquet for her room. There was also a beaver house that we tried to get close to, but those darn beavers were too clever for us and we couldn't quite get to it.

These pictures were taken outside of Margaret and Charley's house.



Sun Valley, Idaho Part 3




We went to a fun little lake just outside of Ketchum. It was pretty hot, so the cold water felt great on our feet, although a bit too cold to swim in.


Sun Valley, Idaho Trip

Raif's First Airplane Ride
Bailey in the plane

Colby's parents invited us to their home in Sun Valley, Idaho. My mom joined us for the trip (my dad couldn't get time off). Raif got to have his first plane ride, and it was Bailey's first time with her own seat. We had tons of fun hiking, seeing horses, playing in the river, and we even saw a deer come within about 10 feet from the dining room window. Picutes to follow on a different post.
