Island Park

 We drove to Island Park we were all excited to see Uncle Tommy again! We all have really missed him since he moved to Idaho. Tommy set up his slack  line and showed Landon how to walk on it. Carter too but he lost interest faster. Landon even insisted on sleeping in Uncle Tommy's hammock the first night- we moved him to the tent after he was asleep.

We got up on the 4th and decided to head up to Cliff Lake seems to have turned into a tradition we have been there almost every 4th for 4 years. wow. I love the above picture (bottom right) It's totally mom I don't trust him!! I don't want to get wet and cold! SAVE ME. And Tommy looks like too bad. Ryan found a craw-fish and passed it around. Carter was brave enough to hold it as well. And a few snakes. 

 There was this man made raft there. We were all gonna get on but I was too slow taking pictures and it started to sink you can see the dogs bailed out. We got there and the whole area was empty but we left when our empty beach changed to over filled.

Carter wanted a picture of him looking freezing and then one of me and dad. I love that series. He is so silly arms up are part of the act. Ryan's aunt took some cute pictures while we were with them too.
Check it out.

The evening party was fun too. We all did a talent more or less. Sang some songs and had a good time. Carter wanted to tell some jokes so I suggested that he sing Down by the Bay and his eyes lit up when everyone joined in and helped him sing it was very sweet.
