With each place we have lived we have tried to learn about and experience the area. We have had many great opportunities to learn. <br /><br />One thing about Idaho that we have a love / hate relationship with is the late summer nights. It does not get dark until 10:00 p.m. which is great fun when you are playing, but not so exciting when trying to get kids to sleep.<br /><br />However, on this summer night we were truly enjoying our long summer night on the lake.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdQj-77kZMu2XC22ShY3P9bM3ltkQMhVZhUyUk12BkowFV9ImxCpWP1iGccfmUjnUv-9Yumpdh0sujo4AV3IYgcAJ7t4f_TqZktlfPYkeJoqiLGPkkDrTMPJTN1Ef0AmGSeEfp_Qy0MViA/s1600/DSC_3834.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdQj-77kZMu2XC22ShY3P9bM3ltkQMhVZhUyUk12BkowFV9ImxCpWP1iGccfmUjnUv-9Yumpdh0sujo4AV3IYgcAJ7t4f_TqZktlfPYkeJoqiLGPkkDrTMPJTN1Ef0AmGSeEfp_Qy0MViA/s400/DSC_3834.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493218479866074306" border="0" /></a>After work we headed to the lake to meet some friends who invited us to go boating with them.

We began the day by leaving the kids with Grandma while Scott and Cherie went golfing. Afterwards we returned home where Scott was able to take a nap to prepare for the adventure to come later that day. After taking Grandma to the airport (thanks for the visit, we loved having you!) we left the two youngest boys with a babysitter and headed to go white water rafting.<br /><br />Scott was the first to 'ride the bull' . Sitting on the front as the boat heads into the rapids is a fun way to get the first glimpse of all that is coming. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH9VLqcwca7qHnu9VmklSwQVE0yImNcVhDAjf98WgsTQOLGYrnU3hGiiRR9kiVZIDwEeTXuje-7bd1SEMYhNIYxw9F4hJedKGFtGwLM5SSSQkYWGzi8EOoxHsgAKxn7T6CHafm9nogAtYW/s1600/MEO_0009.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 673px; height: 428px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH9VLqcwca7qHnu9VmklSwQVE0yImNcVhDAjf98WgsTQOLGYrnU3hGiiRR9kiVZIDwEeTXuje-7bd1SEMYhNIYxw9F4hJedKGFtGwLM5SSSQkYWGzi8EOoxHsgAKxn7T6CHafm9nogAtYW/s400/MEO_0009.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492863805334516562" border="0" /></a>Cherie and Maddison also experienced 'riding the bull'. However it was Maddie that took the biggest hit. As we came into one rapid, Maddison was hit with water that covered the boat. One picture directly following this one we could see only the bottom of Maddison's sandals, completely surrounded by water, we couldn't even see the boat, just sandals. Way to go Maddie. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC24zTDsk83pp4osbNwjglVlqwTjRIjQHE9Sk8WPb6YOORDQtZmoiTGuADnEdFo4c39RIVdBDDw0ckaIEsopvdKoOcpDLrXerRcgpfaHmnEjsxzl-NoPZUujVPWnVUASdlpW-Bo4YeR1BA/s1600/MEO_0001.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 704px; height: 467px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC24zTDsk83pp4osbNwjglVlqwTjRIjQHE9Sk8WPb6YOORDQtZmoiTGuADnEdFo4c39RIVdBDDw0ckaIEsopvdKoOcpDLrXerRcgpfaHmnEjsxzl-NoPZUujVPWnVUASdlpW-Bo4YeR1BA/s400/MEO_0001.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492863099880687730" border="0" /></a>What a fun adventure!!

The first was the gift of the Holy Ghost, and being baptized. The second was spending time with family.<br /><br />Thank You everyone who made such an effort to spend this wonderful day with us.<br /><br />We began by going to Camel's Back park where we were able to play and hike a bit. Afterwards we returned home for lunch and to prepare for Eliza's baptism. After the baptism we continued our celebration with a cook out involving lots of wonderful family. Next swimming (Thanks Jason and Bethany). And finally fireworks of all sorts. (We only watched the first few before we realized that we were traumatizing our little Jake, and decided to call it a night and return home for bed)<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihrjIt2rRAH6rJnlm2PtttA5kraBndPnvFVOEDN3fZOex3T840OtFLkj_1V7vpNE4Pv69jF6F-VqYppgrseDkTZl6D2ItFl2wUMVS5jFC6wNPMv3hMFF2NPR8XzzTxMAktrNy1n0_FzwbQ/s1600/DSC_0114.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Saturday night he was running toward Scott and I when he ran right into the back of the camps outdoor metal grill. At first we thought it just knocked him down. But upon picking him up we immediately noticed the cut above his right eye. After cleaning some of the blood off it was determined that he would need to be taken in for stitches. Yep, 5 stitches. Scott spent the rest of the night driving 1 1/2 hours to the nearest hospital and spending time in the emergency room, but Jake did great.<br /><br />However, this did not stop him from continually going. He still wanted to be a part of everything, including walking the log jam. This was as far as I let him go, but the rest of the group made it all the way to the other side.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJEU5rV2u4LlXK5-Il79uBjkMrfOfnPS_RbayGwDtupN5KMIrYefHsAfC6ytZ97N3K7Kfub59uAXzdM75IzD5vFDwkbtCPIKTS_b8L5H-tdqzNlATxz-Sxa8QemSqb3u9lW6ILGHIwPOdJ/s1600-h/DSCN5784.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJEU5rV2u4LlXK5-Il79uBjkMrfOfnPS_RbayGwDtupN5KMIrYefHsAfC6ytZ97N3K7Kfub59uAXzdM75IzD5vFDwkbtCPIKTS_b8L5H-tdqzNlATxz-Sxa8QemSqb3u9lW6ILGHIwPOdJ/s400/DSCN5784.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367708270458007426" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFeMjM0q9Nj8Gractee1FjFS94cYIA46pfza4omUmeigN-Y_vnX4ipcqJ3Nk0zgEILVm2Kj5pCe7S8om0rL6c0lT6ONKt3lFRWkYMp4EaXSrwVDEggAgnN2cOfZdpAN5VmIW-8n5dvcUke/s1600-h/DSCN5787.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFeMjM0q9Nj8Gractee1FjFS94cYIA46pfza4omUmeigN-Y_vnX4ipcqJ3Nk0zgEILVm2Kj5pCe7S8om0rL6c0lT6ONKt3lFRWkYMp4EaXSrwVDEggAgnN2cOfZdpAN5VmIW-8n5dvcUke/s400/DSCN5787.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367708262112085298" border="0" /></a><br />Each night the kids crashed from their many adventures.

Scott told Caden that he would give him a quarter if Caden would go up to one of them and ask them to marry him. Caden received a big grin, and at that moment the parade came to a stop with one of the pageant winners right in front of us. Caden instantly stepped forward and asked her to marry him. She, surprised, looked at him and said, "I will have to think about it, what is your name?"

We have been very busy in our new home. <div><br /></div><div><br /><div> </div><div>I love Harvest time and watching all the food be layed up in store. This is one of the things I have been busy with. This year I canned equivalent of 137 quarts of food: Salsa, Tomatoes, Marinara Sauce, Jam, Peaches and Pears. A big THANKS goes out to Vernal and Patricia for all the tomatoes. They were absolutely delicious. It was almost hard to use them in any way other than their purest form they were so good, but there was no way I could eat that many tomatoes, since I am the only one in my family that will eat a raw tomato. And, we are excited to have more salsa in our pantry.</div><div><br /></div><div><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsLm8FbKxiM7HFYH3MFX-Txw1j4e0o9K0dI08IMSzPJZxzX1g8N_DYXiGOSHJcs3TuEsgU5JBDD55GAeP-doEX7LUgVSNCtYATDSfC_QUIDFE4r0uXbIiJ7iSo42Fp_T9Z_Ssa80So2ZJs/s400/DSCN4992.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5250001204383029426" /><br /></div><div><br /></div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>Another time consumer is getting the practice going. I have been taking all the phone calls for Focus Vision Therapy and doing the books. The good news is that I can't show you a copy of our current dates because it is full. Scott has been so busy with patients. We have been very blessed. Scott truly enjoys what he does, and enjoys having the opportunity to help these kids and make such a big difference in their lives. <img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOir5s_iOcOIlrmpilJPH-dpjGOr2PnZ_tXcFlAuRYO3cXj8Ht7odFoYCQKAjv8V29vQXpCh6UROwzxMCsIRdsiuyjmmUGvHUrUqBwoADlV41jxdclit80NMJi58ROUS06xV6SGWpLNFHa/s400/DSCN4993.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5250001193286414994" /></div></div>Cheriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07944165467891650100noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-891294821110208157.post-74903595838775643772008-08-26T14:22:00.000-07:002008-08-26T15:46:05.284-07:00A Little taste of CadenAfter not posting for a while I am making up for it today.
