One the first day we went on a hike along a railroad bed. That was nice because we could take a stroller, and James slept most of it. Here is Jase ready for the hike.
Here are the cousins along the trail. It was a 3 mile hike. Jase and Anna walked almost the whole way (Spencer and James did not!)

I didn't get pictures of these, but Jase kept drawing "dinosaur prints" with his walking stick in the path for Spencer to follow, he loved it. I also didn't get a picture of us crossing the treacherous mud slide, Mandy got almost knee deep in mud, but the rest of us came out pretty unscathed. The rain held off until we reached the covered pavilion- and then it poured.That night Devon and i hosted some "Minute to Win It" games. We played boys vs girls, and both Mandy and Nathan were the only ones to get the cookie on "Face the Cookie." Besides Spencer who just put it in his mouth.
We played quite a few games, but as soon as we were done with this one James jumped off my lap and did it himself, he was very proud!
People in Texas- we are bringing these games to you- so be ready! It was really fun!The second day we went to Mesa Falls. The falls is making a rainbow.
They had a little museum there with tons of animal pelts. It thought it was a little weird to touch them, Spencer was not at all disturbed.
This reminds me of Spencer and bears in Yellowstone. While we were driving in Yellowstone we talked about what you should do if you see a bear. Spencer could not be convinced that you should stand still, so if you ask him what to do if you see a bear he will tell you "Daddy will hold still and I will run and we'll see who gets attacked!" Luckily, we didn't see any bears.James loves to growl, and there were lots of things to growl at here, he just can't decide if he should growl or say cheese.

You guys have so much fun. I love it. :o)
We are excited for the minute to win it games. Although I think we should get to practice first seeing as you guys have done them. :)
