Summer Fun with the Kids

First of all, here are some other rooms of the ranch house we haven't posted yet... Dining Room

The deck with a view!

On Friday, we had a summer fun day. We went to the Museum of the Rockies and then went swimming.
We saw the frogs again...this one looked like a gummy frog, but it's a...


Chinese Gliding Frog!

We watched an educational film about frogs deformed by pollution


bring on the movie! We also saw a planetarium show right after this so we can do some good star gazing on our camping trip next weekend.





Then we played in the Yellowstone Discovery Room... here's Addie with an eagle


The kids going on a Yellowstone adventure...

On Saturday Niles had his first swim.

Sadly, the water was colder than usual, so it wasn't so fun for him. This is about as happy as he ever got, poor baby!

Here are all the kids swimming with Daddy--a fun weekend!

So sweet! The ranch looks amazing. I thought we might make it out there this summer, but no luck. We'll have to shoot for next year! Love the pics of the kidlets swimming with Rich.

Aww so cute!

So tonight we were reading scriptures as a family, talking about charity and what kinds of good things we would do to help others if we had lots of money and Sam says:

"Uncle Rich has lots of money!!"

and I say "What makes you say that?"

and he says ".....cause he's Rich!"

Finding out their reasoning behind their thoughts is always my favorite part.

ps- I was just kidding about having to drive all the way over here to get the bumbo back. I can mail it if you need it soon. But if you are thinking about taking a day trip or something soon like you were saying then I'll hold onto it. We are going to the rodeo/carnival next weekend and the air show in Great Falls if you want to join us for either!
