trouble 1 and trouble 2

fall

officially fall in idaho

readin'

some afternoon dinosaur readin' in the sunlight

fam

my mom wanted a pic of the whole crew while we were all together & of course we waited until the last night. we had to run over to the lodge & grab andy while he was working. so sorry, it's pitch black, mom, but it is everybody:-)

fan

so it seems that chapin, just like her momma, is a closet twilight fan.

ole rowe

busted up his nose a bit

and sweet eileen made him feel better

and then he was back to smilin'

and counting his steps in german :-)

winter

so our winter plans are set. i think. we are florida bound. andy is going to get his captain's license and start guiding salt water. so if you need us, we'll be in chokaloskee, florida. the last town before the everglades. so...his diesel is for sale in order to buy a flats boat. anybody need a big truck?

i think rowe and eileen are the most excited. rowe can't wait to be near the ocean and eileen can't wait to get tan:-)

dress

so eileen is becoming quite the seamstress. she has made a ton of stuff this summer and andy and i have been shooting her stuff to help her make a little portfolio. this is my favorite pic so far.

chap crashed the shoot :-)

bro

more visitors! my brother, kristina, and baby thomas made it to idaho:-) we have been having a ton of fun. since i have to work this afternoon and i've been before, the rest of the crew went to jackson for the day. it is spooky quiet in this house, but i sure have been able to catch up a bit:-) so here's some pics from our trip to the base of the henry's fork. the water is super cold so all of the little ones wanted to feel it. we got crazy lucky and two male moose came down to munch on some of the plant life in the river. one of the males got a bit aggressive and we all made a quick dash to the tahoe. a little adrenaline rush, but fun for all. so glad they are here.

dancin'

what a blessing this heart has been to our family.

faces

i've heard my friends talk about the tangibility of their kids' growth. this pic is that for me. just a smiley face, but growth. and a little butt crack, sorry about that. fyi, chap did not draw that buzz and i will admit, neither did i.

bridge

had another picnic day at osborne bride. here's pics coming and going, and then some pics of once we got there.

and then on the way home. ole happy happy.

travis

here's our sweet next door neighbor, travis. he's a trouthunter guide and so stinkin' nice. he and andy fished the south fork the other day.

ps brister - andy and i think this one is right up your alley.

sale

random pic, but wanted to commemorate our first yard sale. with us moving in less than a month, the more that comes out of our house before we pack the better.

2

thanks, momma lee, for the fun card and even more fun dress. love ya.

falls

so while mom and dad were here, we took them to mesa falls. i love the pic of eileen and the kids. they are literally all over her:-)
