Let's see....
 

The past couple of months have been a little bit crazy to say the least. We just got back from a 3 week excursion. First stop, was Boise, ID. Dom's company (Sunset Racing Events) put on the Boise 70.3, a half Ironman distance triathlon. The following weekend we were an hour north of Boise in Garden Valley, ID where his company again put on another HUGE event. This would be a weekend long event (3days) called the PRE which stands for the Payette River Experience. It started on Friday and ended Sunday. There were kayaking and rafting races, bungee surfing, running and Mtn. biking race also trap shooting and fly fishing competitions. They also had a huge expo set up with different vendors, massages, wine tastings etc. My parents were able to make it down and my dad and I entered the fly fishing competition. Neither one of use caught a fish...Grr! It was fun anyways. We had a blast with Dom's nephew Alexander who came out for the week to work with Dom. The 3 of us spent a day white water Kayaking...what a BLAST!!! We talked about how much fun we had for 2 days straight. After the PRE, we began our two day drive through Oregon to the coast for my brother Lance's wedding. That also was a ton of fun! Kady loved the beach and the carousel (kind of) and it was great to spend so much time with all of my family. We then drove home through California spending the first night with my Uncle in Redding and the 2nd night camping in Yosemite National Park. We are planning another camping trip in Yosemite since we didn't get to see any of the cool stuff we wanted. Besides it's breathtakingly beautiful. Our last day was spent driving through Death Valley @ 120*...Ouch! It also was beautiful in a baron, desolate kind of way. I'd love to drive back through again in the Spring when the flowers are in bloom. Kadence was a CHAMP!! We drove multiple 7 hour days and she couldn't have been better or more patient (wherever she got that from *wink*). So, that brings us to the night we arrived home and...well, I can't share the rest just yet but I'll keep you posted =o) As for now, it's back to laundry and more packing. We are off to spend the week in Myrtle Beach with Dom's parents. Can't wait!!!

Much Love <3
