Stanley Lake Idaho

We spent a few does camping, biking and fishing up in Stanley Idaho.  It is such a great spot.  We are already planning our trip back next year. 

MTB family adventure

We headed up to the mountains Saturday night to escape the heat.  Here is a little video of our family MTB outing.

Jimmy doing some work

Jimmy is all about doing his "job."  Here he is getting ready to help Daddy.

Fire Hydrant Dance

Jimmy really loves to climb fire hydrants.  We can't walk by one without a summit.  Here he is doing a little dance on top of the one in front of our house.

Tool Guy

Jimmy loves his tools just like his dad and grandpa.  Here he is with his new tool bench.  He's getting lots of work done as you can see.

Spring Landscaping

We are having a beautiful spring this year in Logan.  It has been nice and warm and sunny making a great opportunity to continue some landscaping work.  We have peas planted, garlic, strawberries and some other early vegetables.  The trees and bushes planted late last fall all survived.

Ducky

Jimmy got a new "guy" from the Easter Bunny.  He really likes Ducky.

Baby Animal Days

We had a great time out at the American West Heritage Center checking out Baby Animal Days.  Of course, Jimmy really loved the train ride.

Spring Break 2012

We had a great week exploring southwestern Utah during spring break.  The first three nights we camped at Quail Creek State Park.  Then we relocated near the ghost town of Grafton near Rockville and Zion National Park

This first video is some time spent with Jimmy practicing downhill speed on his big wheel.

The ghost town of Grafton was a really beautiful place and the remote location was a bit more our style.  After a trip through the town grave yard Jimmy wanted to try a little bouldering.

Hot Springs

Heading to Maple Grove Hot Springs is one of the favorite family activities this winter.  Jimmy usually brings some of his "guys."  This trip he had trout and mantis. That's mom's beer not Jimmy's in the background. Jimmy's mantra for the hot springs is "This is nice, this is relaxing" and I agree.
