26 things-Hot, Hot, Hot!

This is my first photo from the 26 things list, number 10-hot, hot, hot.  I am hoping to get all of them done this round.

Trent is away this week at camp in Idaho.  It is the first time he has been gone so far away, for so long, with no contact with us.  I am guessing he is having a blast though, as he is with a bunch of teens on a college campus.

Love the view of the temple by the river in the evening.

We have loved being in Idaho Falls.  The weather has been perfect to take walks everyday down by the river’s edge trail.  The kids loved getting to feed the ducks, and watch the falls.

26 Things List-July/August

I am now hosting the 26 things list on 2peas.  I am SO excited to get the privilege to do this.  So for those other photographers out there who are interested, here is how it works:  

For those of you who haven't "played" before, a list of 26 words is posted as a thread on the Message Board. Take a photo, or two, or however many of each word--either what it is, or what you think of when you read it, or how you interpret it. There is no right or wrong way; this is an exercise to help you think outside the box and stretch your creative muscles. Once you've taken the shot, post it on the gallery or on your blog, and then put a link up on the 26 Things thread that will be called "26 Things now open!". {This post will get started on the first} You can post one shot, three...however many you want.
We will start on July 1, and end August 31. You can end sooner if you want. You don't have to finish if life gets in the way; we all are in the same boat. You don't have to post in order...these are in alphabetical order purely for convenience's sake. This is supposed to be fun, not brain surgery, so just go out, look at things a little differently, and have a good time.

So for those who want to join in, you are welcome to join us on 2peas photo board and play along.  Here is the list to get you started:

While we were in Florida it was a total treat to get to go to Cold Stone Creamery, so when we found one in Idaho Falls we had to go.  Cole LOVED it, as did all of us.  He danced around, then proceeded to eat a TON of “cweem”" as he calls it.  So yummy!

Relay for Life was this evening.  The kids had a blast getting to attend.  It is so nice getting to have fun, spending good times with family and friends while raising money for a good cause.
