Cascade Lake

We spent 5 days in a cabin up at Cascade Lake in Idaho So nice, relaxing, and quiet.
Here is a picture from the top of the stairs.

We got 2 rubber rafts.   The kids had fun.  Dave and Grandpa W. made oars for the rafts and they worked really well.

Jordan in the water

Kids Playing in the water,  Yes there is a haze in the air.  Most of the middle of Idaho was on fire. 

David debating the merits of jumping in to one of the rafts. 

James playing in the sand.

We got a canoe and a kayak  Everyone got the chance to row across the lake in one of them. 

The stairs down to the water.  We lost a foot to a foot and a half of water while we were there.  Hopefully it helped farmers finish out the growing season. 

Dave and Jordan caught 4 fish.

We had a blast and came back relaxed and ready for school to start. 

Courtney turns 10

So Our Baby Girl turned 10 at the beginning of the month. Here she is opening her presents from the family. She was very confused when her brothers gave her earrings. But was equally excited when she found out mom was taking her to get her ears pierced later in the day.

All set for her party

She had lunch, Corn dogs and Fries,

The cake was Pink lemonaid with Pink lemonaid frosting, with Pink lemonaid for a drink.

Blowing out candles.
