Of Canyons and County Fairs

I'm doing it.  I'm taking the plunge and updating the ol' blog.  Get ready for a lot of "highlight reels"

Sometimes, Elko can be beautiful and green and scenic.  Well, not Elko proper, but Lamoille Canyon is only a half hour away, and that is where we hung out for part of Labor Day weekend.


Accompanied, of course, by our favorite pals the Wheelers and the Hatches.  We love these kids!


The water was frigid, which didn't stop the children from charging in, crying, charging out, and repeating.  Porter was even in long enough to trigger his automatic poop-in-his-swim-diaper response.  Seriously, it happens every time.


Also, there was mud.  So there were happy kids.




We were so lucky to have a visit from Maymay and Grandpa and Gabe and Jerica over the weekend.  Eli kept watch by the window for nearly an hour before they arrived.

Luckily there was a full on EVENT going on in Elko- the grand, great, and glorious Elko County Fair.  Bull riding and horse race gambling for everyone!


Zach was the champ of the group.  Check out them guns!  Yee ha!



Our studly visitors were super good sports about hanging around in the heat while Porter and Eli rode a few of the rides.  Thanks guys!

Everyone was bummed when our family left, so Dad took the boys for a ride in the evening.  He's the coolest.
Happy Labor Day three months late!
