Summer Vacation in Northern Idaho

Every year for Ty's vacation we head to northern Idaho. Ty's parents and little brother live up there and we don't get to see them very often. We always have a blast. It is a 17 hour drive and our kids handle it well. Ty's family plans out a weeks worth of fun activities and good food. There is never a dull moment.





Ty and C.J. pack up the drift boat and take a much needed, get away from it all, fishing trip.








Here we have the homemade slip-n-slide.







Grandma Lisa made lady bug cookies with the boys.




The store bought slip-n-slide





Papa's turn

We took a trip to Lake Ponderay. It is the most beautiful clear water lake surrounded by forest. It is one of the worlds deepest lakes which attracted the U.S Navy to do some of its training. My grandpa actually trained on this lake, so its kinda special to me.




















Brave Jett went on the tube all by himself






















Boo is such a cool uncle. The boys camped out in his room every night. Boo hung glow in the dark stars and planets up for them and there night light was a black light that brought the room to life. The boys are still talk about his room.







We found a nice little cove that we had all to ourselves once we shewed the geese away. We swam and played around with the drift wood.

This cracks me up
Its so hard to get us all to look at the same time


I love this lake.

We spent a day at River Front Park in Spokane Washington. There is lots of fun rides for kids.

Super cute Sloan! It looks like you guys had a great trip. I love that Jett was so brave on the tube, my girls love ridding the tube too, but they go together:) I love your family pics, that is so just the way it is. I am glad my family isn't the only ones who struggle to get a good shot of all of us.
