July Fourth Trip to EO

We loaded up the horses, dog, kids, and gear and headed to EO again for the Fourth of July. It was a great trip!


GrammaBon did lots of cooking (or "tooking", as someone says) -- and lots of dishes! Here she and Aleaha get set for another pie-making project.




Aleaha was thrilled to get her own bunch of dough to play with.


And one evening we had bannock -- a type of bread roasted on a stick. We all agreed the recipe needs a few tweaks. (And we won't shape it like that again, for a couple of reasons!)


Miri likes to play with her tongue. She was teething and drooling and sometimes very cranky.



Enjoying a little cheese snack.


Something surprised her.


Took lots of Bob-strolls.


Daddy helped Grandpa do a little project on the containers.


Aleaha learns to fly the helicopter jim-crack.


Daddy got her to do a lot of fetching. Good thing she was wearing that helmet during that activity!


A true horse whisperer...


... and equine massage therapist. Jake and Arby were very good boys. No squirrelly business, just great riding. There was the time we flushed out a herd of elk, and things were a little interesting then. No pics of riding, dangit. But great memories!!!


Da boyz, drinking from the pond. Jake took lots of dips in the pool.


Out for a nice walk. Aleaha insisted on using her lead rope on the dog, and for part of the time, he complied.


Sleeping in her bunkhouse bed.
