Camp Little Lemhi

a huge spiderweb!

Ryan pretending to be Spider-Man (he was up there for 3 weeks, we think it warped his mind!) You can't see the spiderweb in this one, but it was right below him and all the way under the bridge!

For some reason all the boys ended up in red shirts

Courtney loved these stairs, they were tree roots, they reminded her of Lord of the Rings

Dragonflies

There are hundreds of dragonflies in our neighborhood this time of year, I don't know why!

As you can see I have finally updated my blog! These pictures from Montpelier were on a different photo chip so that is why they are out of order with the rest of the photos! And I just took a bunch of pictures today (that I will try to get on here sometime soon) of dragonflies, we had a whole herd of them sitting in our evergreen bushes out front.

We are on a countdown this month until all camps are over, Ryan comes home the 26th (hopefully) and Courtney leaves for Girl's Camp on the 29th. She gets home the 1st, just in time for Breaking Dawn (the 4th book in the Twilight series, for those of you living in caves!) to come out the 2nd - we can hardly wait!!! Actually, Courtney has to wait, because I am reading it first!

Then comes the countdown to school starting - the 21st - it seems so close! But I'm sure the closer it gets I will be ready to send them back to school!

I hope you all are enjoying our blog and I will try to be more regular about our updates!

Headstones - Montpelier, Idaho cemetary

Leo Wesley was thrown from a horse and died, he was Joseph Morris and Margaret Hunter Phelps' son.

This is Joseph Morris Phelps' headstone.

Margaret Hunter Groo Phelps - Grandpa Phelps (Joseph McKay) says he remembers coming to her funeral, there was a lot of snow. The casket was taken by a horse drawn sled to the cemetery. He also said, she was mean and aunry to him and Aunt Dee, whenever she came to stay with them as kids.
