Jenks Brothers Hike to Big Horn Crags 2011

For their yearly hiking expedition Barry and his brothers explored the Big Horn Crags in the Frank Church Wilderness.

There was lots of snow to play in along the way!

The snow made getting around a little tricky.

Jenks Reunion 2011

We had a lot of fun at our reunion in Oakley this year with Barry's family. We went camping at Father and Sons' campground (the usual place) and his sister Amy planned all sort of fun things to do around a cowboy theme. The kids had a blast and were thoroughly worn out each day.

Panning for "gold."

Oh, dirt.

There was a bunch of fun rodeo activities. Here's Clara trying her hand at the lasso. We also got some fun videos of racing horses.

After camping for a few days we went back to Oakley and joined in all of the Pioneer Day festivities - the race, the parade, and lots of fun with family.

Summer in Mountain Home

Since fall is about here it's probably time to post about some of the things we've been doing this summer. Our days are mostly filled with the usual things like house and yard work, but we try to throw in some fun and excitement every once in a while. 

Fishing at C.J. Strike Reservoir on Memorial Day.

Some friends had a few fun craft days for the kids. Here is one where we made cookies.

A picnic in the park.

Independence Day

Lighting fireworks.

We went to a fun 4th of July party at a friends' house where we had a barbecue, slip and slide, and all of the kids did a cute bike parade.
