1966 Chevy Pick Up

Last Thursday we made a quick trip to Twin Falls. You probably are thinking to see family, and yes we wanted to do that, but this trip was to pick up a 1966 Chevy Pick Up. As you can see it made my boys really happy. Stacy has always wanted to restore one and here is the funny story. He was talking about doing it and saying how when we are sixty we can cruise around in it. I told him he only had 15 years to do it. We both had to stop and contemplate that thought. Not much fun. So we tease him that he is working on his mid life crisis. Hey it is a great project for that. It is really cute and it will be fun when it is done. I am excited for him. Dalan is way excited too. Bailey told Dalan that when we are gone (another not fun thought) he got the sand rail and she got the pick up. Ha Ha. They always keep us on our toes.

Dog-Gone It!

Otis did come home and stayed 5 days and on Sunday we left for church and he was here. Bailey got sick and Grandma brought her home before the opening prayer. So they got back to the house 45 minutes later and Otis was no where to be found. Stacy went over to Packsaddle and found him with the guy I guess he has decided to live with. Stacy told him to keep him, because we can not have a dog that won't stay home and we are not going to tie him up. We are sad. But the two new puppies Toby and Z are so cute and doing really well.

Otis

We got Otis back. After a whole month of wondering where our dog went and what happened to him we finally found out and to make it even better it is a happy ending.(Sorry, yes I know that is a long run on sentence, but not into English these days, just need to get the blog and our life documented) Long story short. Otis went fencing with Stacy. Stacy turned to go home, Otis chases a squirrel. Went just over the hill, a stranger picked him up and took him to the pound, almost before Stacy made it home! Crazy. Kind of makes us crazy! That really shows what kind of people live in the valley. Stacy went to check on cattle the other day came across a guy with a motor bike that wasn't running on Packsaddle. Otis was with him. Stacy said "What are you doing Otis, you mute". The guy responded no his name is Otter. Well..... needless to say we now have Otis at home. He had an eventful month, pound, quarantined for 10 days, neutered, adopted back by the guy who took him in, kenneled and tied up, and then we brought him back home. He seems a little different but getting back to normal. We really did miss him. He has been home for two days and has already cornered 2 rock chucks that Stacy was able to shoot! Yeah!! So now we are the owners of three dogs. How crazy is that.

Happy 4th of July

We had a great 4th of July. We went to Rexburg and picked Dalan up and watched the parade that was full of Lerwill boys and Anyia. It was a beautiful sunny day but not too hot. Then we went and ate at Wendy's and then we came home and hung around here with Ryan's family and Lisa's family. That evening we went back to Rexburg and went to the rodeo. It has been a while since we have been to a rodeo and it was a lot of fun. We watched the fireworks afterwards. They were o.k. We now have to compare them to Huntsman's who I must say do awesome fireworks. I always hate to have the 4th over with. It seems like the summer goes by too quickly!! Here are some cute pictures of cute kids.

It was such a beautiful night, so warm, and mild. The temple just stood out in the night sky, glowing!

The kids ultimate fishing, after 2 years of waiting.
