McCall 2011 Part 1

After the Hawkins Family reunion and some time at the farm, we headed up to McCall Idaho to spend the week with the Fillmores. On the way up we met up with Dave and Melanie. They were on their way home from McCall so we met up at the Malad Gorge.

McCall was super action packed this year. Here is just some of the events from the week.
We always go canoeing up the river. This year was a bit crazy with the three little boys. We turned around after about 2 minutes and me and Gouverneur got out. The two older boys paddled around with dad.


We went to a boat show. It was pretty swanky. Everyone was dressed all nice, walking around drinking wine. Our boys ran wild while we sipped some Mt. Dew from a plastic bottle. Classy.
We went to church.
Sterling took Little Man to a rodeo. It was small time but Little Man loved it.
The boys spent lots of time with cousins. We stayed next to Rachel and the girls so cousin Lydia was over a lot and we loved it.

We took a nice evening boat ride around the lake. This is probably one of my favorite McCall traditions.

We went parasailing. Ok when I say we, I mean some of the family went. I would never in ten million year dare to do anything this exciting. It was fun to watch everyone else. Here is Eric.

We spent lots of time on the beach. The water was perfect temperature this year.

This shot of the babies is classic. Here we have Zack, Gouverneur, and Norah. This same shot could have been taken at the pool on most days.

We ate lots of yummy food.

We went to the gardens. We go to this private garden every year on Sunday. It is the perfect Sunday activity. Little Man sort of looks like a hippy in this picture. He discovered silly bands on the trip and wore them non-stop.

Dellin has more darling expressions that we will ever be able to document but we are sure trying. Love this boy!

All the cousins minus one. It's easy to see why my boys were in heaven all week.

I love this picture of Sterling's brothers and his dad.

Me with my boys.
More pictures to come.
