Part 2: Bonners Ferry

Bonners Ferry had perfect weather when we were there. There were even some scattered showers (my favorite). We of course went to Alex's grandma's Ranch. I LOVE the ranch. It's something out of a movie - just picturesque.

Emmett found a motorcycle helmet and wouldn't take it off. This kid is so serious about "boy" stuff that it just makes me laugh.
Emmett is pretty shy too sometimes, but his cousin Davey came by wearing his baseball attire and played soccer with him.
Too much of a good thing. He played and played and played :)
E & Z picking Grandma's strawberries. That is their FAVORITE thing to do at Grandma's house by far.
Again...Emmett playing baseball with cousin Travis.

Zoë washing the car. Surprisingly she loves doing it and begs us to have a "washing the car" family home evening.

Alex took the kids on a crazy long hike. It was 3 miles straight up a mountain. I wasn't there or I would have said no. Not shockingly, Emmett had a meltdown 200 yards into the trek and decided he wasn't going to walk. They made it miraculously though. Zoë was amazing and walked all the way there.On Aunt Darlene's pond trying to catch turtles.

Zoë was feeling pretty big being with all the older girls.

This was me most of the time. I have just relished the alone time with Ellie and love when I can spoil her with my undivided attention.
The kids really wanted to go fishing.

She was turning purple so they went back into Grandma's hot tub and thawed a bit.
