Spring Fling


This last weekend we invited Chris, Emily, and their kids to Boise for the Spring Fling at BSU. They came up on Friday night and stayed until Saturday night. We had such a great time. We love having friends and family stay with us!

The weather was perfect all weekend. The kids loved eating out on the deck and going for walks.

We all enjoyed playing Wii Fit. The adults had fun and the kids loved it.

All the kids love Uncle Jake. He let them play with his "fart machine." They thought this was pretty awesome, but it started getting old after a while. We turned if off and told the kids it ran out of batteries. They were disappointed so Uncle Jake taught them how to make fart noises with their hands and armpits.Making fart noises

We had a BBQ at our place on Saturday before we headed over to BSU. We had Ryan and Teri over.( I am not sure why I don't have any picturs of them.)

They had a lot of fun family games at the Spring Fling...

Jake and Gordon "fighting"


I am not sure what this game is called but Jake and Emily have a bungee cord around their waiste. You run forward and then it pulls you back. So much fun!


The kids were excited about their balloon creations. Gordon and Ashylnn got a sword.

I have a massive bruise on the inside of my thigh because of that dang bull!

I went back and looked at the photo of Ryan on the velcro wall and busted up laughing. That was so hilarious. It looks like he is just standing there. And Lexie- you should post the video of Jake on the bull! Or would he be too embarrassed?

Jake also as a huge bruise. I was going to post the video but he asked me not to. I should anyway because it is so funny!
