We got home from Italy on July 3rd... at about 8pm.
We stayed with gracious cousins who let us do ALL our laundry, and then turned around and dropped us back off at the airport the next morning!
This time we were on our way to Washington to visit Jon's family, and certain returned missionary- Jon's little brother had just returned from his mission in Phoenix.
We flew out on the 4th...
Once we got there- we wasted no time getting to know our nieces and nephews!
We were pretty dang excited to do some camping-
as camping in the summer doesn't happen for us in the South.
This kid loves his bikey.
And we enjoyed fireworks that evening-
God bless America!
Friday we headed to Silverwood- a waterpark/amusement park!
Jon was in heaven!
We spent the morning in the water park...
and then spent the afternoon on the rollercoaster side :)
Saturday was spent around Lake Couer D'Alene!
Sweetest little thing
His smile cracks me up!
Playing with grandma
Lexi loves going on walks with Jon!
He's beautiful
Brave boy!
Going on the jet ski with mama...
jump!
Eating some lunch...
Jordan's family all on the jet skis- including the 5 month old!
Love it!
Caught ya!
He's too cute...
Kindred spirits these two!
Time for the cutting of the mullet...
Getting ready for church...
We enjoyed spending time with everyone!
Wish we lived closer...
