We had a great trip to Idaho! Congrats to Uncle Pups & Aunt Liz!! It was so nice to finally meet our new sister-in-law and to get to celebrate their beautiful day. I'm actually a little sad to make this post, as we unfortunately lost our memory card to our camera on Sunday. After taking hundreds of family & wedding pictures, we have no pictures from Stanley to post, but believe me when I tell you it was one of the most amazing settings for a wedding that I have ever seen!
I will try to post the link to the wedding photographer site once it is available, and thankfully there will be lots of pictures posted on Facebook. (Check out the photos on either Ryan Roe or Elizabeth Roe's pages)
It was a very special weekend as all of my aunts & uncles from both sides of the family were there, which hasn't happened since I can remember. Two of my cousins also made the trip, along with some really great family friends. So the boys were able to meet many new faces & get to play with their cousins, aunts/uncles & Papa & Meme. John & I were extremely fortunate, as my parents had all 6 grandkids sleep in their room each night. While the cousins were having fun, the "big kids" were able to hit the town....all 1 block of it ; )
After 3 days in Stanley, we headed north to Spirit Lake, ID to spend a couple nights with Becki. We had a really nice visit & the boys loved playing outside & getting to walk around town & to the park.
The boys stayed busy "working" last week so I could get us packed for the trip.

Cheers to the Old Man! We hit the night life in Stanley to help Cody celebrate his birthday. |

Sometimes nature calls in the mountains. And this is definitely a better view than what would have been found in a rest stop : )
We spent a night in Missoula, MT & arrived in Spirit Lake on Monday. Filson loved walking Juliet around town. Here he is in front of Sondahl Pottery at the end of Maine St., a neat pottery shop where the pieces are outside & you pay on the honor system.

This was taken outside of a building at the entrance to town. They have beautiful landscaping & have planted the tree in memory of John's dad, who volunteered & served on a lot of organizations for their community. Here are the boys next to the tree that has the memorial to Steve.
I think Ian's trying to figure out if that moose is real!
All 3 boys loved playing with the fish at Becki's house.
The boys were lucky to be staying right across the street from the city park where they were finishing up installing brand new equipment. They took over rakes & "helped" spread the mulch around before testing out the new playground.

looks like you had a great time in ID. The pictures I have seen on FB were great!
What an awesome trip. I'm SO SORRY that your memory card was lost. I can only imagine how awful that would be! :(. Congrats to Ryan and Liz, their wedding pic I've seen on FB are all amazing.
Was great seeing all of the Gaddums. Felt so bad for John and the memory card, what a bummer. Love all your picks. So nice the boys got to see the memory tree. U guys packed in a lot. The wedding was so pretty. A gorgeous setting to go along with a gorgeous couple.
