Idaho and Flathead Lake Montana

We went to Idaho to my dad's cabin for a couple days and then went over to Flathead lake for the 4Th of July. In Idaho we did the kids favorite thing when we go to pa's cabin and that's riding the four wheelers! They love it! We also went down the snake river on a little float trip, my mom has all the pictures of the river trip. Ellie swam with Kenny almost the whole way down she did not want to ride in the boat she wanted to swim. And if you have ever been in the snake river you know how cold it is, it stays about the same temperature year around.

Ellie feel asleep during the ride!

Then after Idaho we went to Montana to Grandpa and Grandma Schaffers house on Flathead Lake for the Fourth of July. Like always Grandpa had the best fire works and a bunch of boats were parked on the lake in front of his dock to watch the show. It's amazing cause you can see all around the lake and all the big fireworks everyone is doing! It was great cause grandpa let each kid light 3 fire works, they thought it was so fun and were a little nervous at the same time. The kids were in the water and dirt everyday and loved it. Of course we also ate a ton of great food and all gained a few pounds from all the cooking!

Watching the fireworks Kenny and Kandace liked them just as much as the kids.

When we get back from summer sales, we will have to come up with Bracken's family and ours and enjoy the outdoors a little.It looked like a lot of fun. We watched fireworks from the Jersey shore.
