Fall Drive


This is my favorite time of year to be living in Southeast Idaho.  I love the weather and the leaves changing colors.  One Sunday after church we decided to go on a drive to Jackson, Wyoming.  I didn't have any plans other than I wanted to be in nature and see all the beautiful colors.   

Sophia slept most of the way there and when she woke up we decided to pull over and stretch our legs.  We came across this pretty lake and decided to get a closer look.  The kids all had fun throwing rocks in, but we had to keep a close eye on Sophia so she didn't go in the water.
 Ben tried to teach us how to skip rocks and the kids loved hunting for the "perfect" skipping rock.  We all had fun, but Ben was the best and could get his rocks to skip for the longest time.
 After some more rock throwing, playing in the mud and mud throwing we decided to get back in the van and continue our drive.  A little bit later we found this park, so we got out and played.
 Sara and Brandon loved the teeter-totter, but Sophia hated it!
The slide was so much fun!


I think Sophia's favorite part was the slide.  Too bad it was so big and she couldn't do it herself.  We didn't make it all the way to Jackson because it got too late and we had to head home so the kids could get in bed. We had such a fun day and I loved being relaxed with nowhere to be and nothing to do.
