Circus, Half Marathon, and Yellowstone!!!

There was a circus here in town last week that we decided to take the kids to! We had buy one get one free tickets and free tickets for the kids so we decided why not! Corban liked all the animals but didn't really care about all the acrobats! haha Brighton liked to dance to the music! It wasn't bad for Rexburg! haha I think this might be Corban's first time eating cotton candy! He wasn't too sure about it at first but then started liking it! 
The tigers and lions! 
Here we are watching the circus! 
Just this past Saturday I ran the Teton Dam Half Marathon! I talked my good neighbor into running it with me! It was alot of fun and I am proud to say I finished! It is worth it and I plan on doing more! Here is me and Erica afterwards! We stayed together the whole time until about the last mile she kinda went ahead of me and finished a minute before me! 
About to the finish line! 
On Sunday we decided to go on a family outing to Yellowstone! It was a rainy day and thought Yellowstone would be beautiful in the rainy weather! We were right! We saw this sign and Clifford had to take a pic with it! 
The mountain behind us has some story behind it! haha It's pretty cool! 
While there we decided to take Brighton's pics since she hasn't had them taken since 4 months old! Here are some of the many Clifford took! 
We had to take a pic of the snow still remaining in June! 
Cute one of Brighton and Daddy! 
Family pic at the artists paint pots! 
The animal we see the most of when we go! haha I'm convinced there are no bears in Yellowstone! Although we almost saw a baby bear in the tree but the park ranger stopped us and made us move our car! Gay! 
Corban stepped in this huge pile of buffalo poop and was not happy! haha He kept saying "ew poop on my foot, get it off" haha We were laughing so hard and thought it was funny because it kept him from running around so we kinda liked it! haha You can see the huge pile below! 
Waiting for us to clean it off! 
His not happy face! haha 
Mommy and Brighton! 
Driving home!

Fathers and Sons!!!

Clifford took Corban on the fathers and sons campout this past Friday! Corban was so excited all week to go camping with daddy and sleep in a tent! They left Friday afternoon and came back Saturday late morning! I think Clifford was excited to take him and just have it be Corban and daddy time! I got to spend time with just Brighton and my friend Elisa was in town so I got to go out to dinner with her and get a cupcake! We had a fun girls night! Here is a pic of them in the car driving! 
Corban is testing the freezing cold water! 
Here he is just waking up with a Jones soda! That's how you know his daddy is watching him! haha 
Corban and his friends are going on a bear hunt! Notice how the kids are bigger than him! They think cuz he's their same size that he's their same age but really he's really like 3 to 6 years younger! haha 

Playing in the creek! 
Roasting marshmellows and making smores! YUM! 
The nasty bug Corban killed! 
Going on a hike! Looking for bears! 
Just playin in the woods! 
Chillin!
