The rest of the summer...

Alright, here it is, one big post with everything I wanted to put on about the summer to get us caught up!  Then I can finally focus on what we are doing now! 

We had a fun time with family at the Oyler reunion in Boise, Idaho.  Great-grandpa Oyler helped us paint bird houses!


Camden had fun being around lots of little kids.  I caught him here eating his watermelon...

Dropping his watermelon....

And you can barely see, but here he is eating the dropped watermelon...

Yay! Look at that bag of candy and prizes!



We also got to visit Grandma and Grandpa Eggett on our way home.  We went over to their property in Morgan where they were waiting to get started building their house.

Starting to dig for the barn.
Beautiful views!


Here's where the house is now being built!

Camden loves visiting Grandpa!

Great-grandpa and grandma Eggett came to visit too!

One last stop before heading home-Jackson Hole, Wyoming.  Calvin's Uncle Dan took us for a wagon ride and let Camden help! 

We had a great steak dinner and enjoyed a little entertainment.

We also got to see the beautiful Tetons at sunset.

We did a lot of driving in the car, but these boys were wonderful!  We like our family road trips!




And there you have it!  It was a great summer filled with many adventures!  We were so happy to return to our house in North Carolina and find all was well.  It was also fun bringing Coulton back with us!  We headed out West a family of 3 and came back a family of 4!  Wish us well with this last year of law school, we love it here in North Carolina, but we are really looking forward to the time when we can be back closer to our families.  We love you!

Twin Falls, ID-Then & Now


We traveled to Boise, Idaho for this year's Oyler family reunion-Calvin's mom's family.  The last time we went was just after Camden was born, and I remembered these pictures we took in Twin Falls at the Perinne bridge.  I thought it would be fun to compare pictures of the two boys!  Camden is 4 weeks old in these pictures and Coulton is 5 weeks old.  Enjoy!

Boating at Pineview

We had such a fun day boating at Pineview with my family! Amy and Olivia flew up from California to spend the week with us, Emily and Brooklyn were both home, Jacob was staying with my family for the summer to work, and Katie drove up from Provo to spend the day with us! It was so much fun having everyone there. Thank you Mom and Dad for the great day! We went tubing, wakeboarding, and water skiing; it was a great day (minus a couple injuries-a broken finger for Calvin and a rope burn for my dad, luckily it wasn't worse-they both stuck it out though and had a good day!).


Our setup back on the beach-we took turns taking care of Coulton and Olivia and Camden part of the time.



















Woo! That is one good-looking guy driving the boat!

We had such a fun day! The next day, we spent the day swimming and playing at Cherry Hill for my birthday. It was a lot of fun too! Unfortunately, we don't have any pictures. Camden was such a big boy and went down the tube slide and the mat slide! We also had a lot of fun playing miniature golf. Thanks for the fun time everyone!
