Technical Difficulties...1 :)

Hi Eeveryone!  I'm really sorry if any of you have tried to comment and haven't been able to; we didn't realize some of the settings we had on that made it so that no one could comment.  Anyway, they are fixed now and anyone should be able to comment!  Have a blessed week!

Apple Picking!

 

Right down from our house we have an apple tree that was (and still is!) full of apples!  So last week the kids and I went down and picked as many as we could reach; which happened to be a lot!  Here are some photos from our adventure!

Elk Everywhere!

A couple weeks ago we went looking for a wild patch of raspberries and on the way we came across a herd of about fifty elk!  Here are a couple photos-



Oh, we found the raspberry patch!  They weren't that big, but....



The whole herd!




Look at the rack on the big guy!

Trip to Rocky Mountain Park!

On Saturday July 28th we went on a day long trip to Rocky Mountain Park!  We first drove all the way to the Alpine visitors center (the highest paved road in North America!), and then we went to Bear Lake and hiked 1.8 miles up hill to Emerald Lake!  It was a very tiring climb, but it was worth the view!  It was very beautiful and we saw many animals in the park.  Here are some photos we took throughout the day and some of the children on a rock in a creek we found!
