summer lake visit!

we had LOTS of fun over the weekend visiting with family at my aunt and uncles fish farm in summer lake. the weather was perfect...blue skies with temps in the low 80s, and a light breeze to keep the mosquito's down.
i was trying to get a picture of the three kids together, but this is the best one i got....they look like they have stage fright! :)

gwynn and aunt sasa...tiff was out of town for the weekend, and charlie had a presentation to do for work in bend on friday, so sarah rode over with him and was their nanny for the weekend :)

collecting eggs...


fishing for trout at the fish pond....

gwynn's first fish!!!

the land is so flat in the desert, you can see forever

gwynn wanted baby evie to take a nap with her in the front lawn, it was so cute watching her make the perfect little nest for them to cuddle in! notice that she is tickling evelyn's check with her finger, every time she sees evie, she points her little finger at her and says, "oh baby evie your so cute" and then tries to tickle her with it...gwynn is so sweet with to her!

brian with uncle tom...
we had awesome bbq tuna one night that we were there...
that's brian in the distance perfecting the load for his gun...i swear that boy is obsessed with it!
what cute little ladies...
hey wait, i think she has me in a head-lock :)
hanging with uncle brian...

charlie had just put payton in some clean clothes for the ride home, but he decided he needed to cool off in the ditch!

oh how i wish summer would never end, we have had such a great time this summer spending time with family and friends and miss evie has been such a good little tyke keeping up with us. she did great on the trip, i was totally impressed with her because we did a LOT of driving.
we have been trying to re-coop from the great weekend although monday afternoon i came down with a super bad flu bug. i have had a fever of 100, and lots of abdominal cramping, nausea, diarrhea, you name it i think i have had it. brian was able to come home a bit early yesterday to help out, i tell ya its a whole different ball game being sick with a baby. i'm just hoping miss evelyn doesn't get it, and i get better by the weekend. we are going camping this weekend with brian's family to celebrate his mom's birthday and we would hate to miss it.
ps-sorry it took so long to get the pics up, i know there was a few of you who were patiently waiting! :) the only reason that i got them up today is because miss evie feel asleep in my bed while i was laying down being sicky, what a sweet girl she is! we are hoping tomorrow is a better day!
XOXOXO

Super cute pictures. Can't believe Evie is getting so big already! Hope you're feeling better. There's nothing worse than being sick while taking care of a baby. Get well soon!
