Our short stay in Burley

As most of you know Greg has decided to take a job with the National Guard as an Officer Recruiter which has put us back in Pocatello for at least a year. We have moved into a nice home (I will post pictures soon) and I am happy to feel settled once again. But I have to play a little bit of catch up from the last few weeks. When we first got back from Oklahoma we stayed at Greg's parents house for about 2 weeks until we found a place. Eva just loved being there because of all the animals. She would go out with Greg twice a day to feed the cows and horses. She would also get at least one ride on the four wheeler everyday and even road in the tractor a couple of times. My little farm girl.

The horses were so sweet to Eva. Every time we would go over to see them they would come right up to the fence and bow their heads down so Eva could pet them. She also new all three of them by name and always had to tell me who was who.

Right before we moved we took a trip to Twin Falls with Blair, Bethany and Deegan to this place called Hop To It. It is a fun zone with the big bounce houses and all kinds of slides and obstacle courses. Eva had the time of her life. Here she is climbing up the latter all by her little self.

And then down the big slide she goes!


Greg and Blair decided to have a friendly little race through the obstacle course. As you can see here Blair is in the lead and Greg looks like he is about to break his back.

But then Greg pulled ahead and beat Blair down the slide to the finish line! Blair complained that it wasn't a fair race because Greg is in the army and does obstacle courses a lot. We all had a laugh about that excuse.

So then it was mine and Bethany's turn to race. I thought for sure she would kick my butt cause she is more athletic than I am. But to my surprise I was beating her! Watch me dive!

and my slide into victory!

After that I jokingly nicknamed Greg and I the "A" team. What can I say I have a very competitive side.
The rest of the time we had fun with the kids, Layla was really to young to enjoy the slides but she seemed to like sitting in the ball pit.


Greg had a few more battles with Blair. You can see Eva in the background, she was a little concerned about Daddy getting hurt. We had to reassure her that they were just playing around.

And here we all are relaxing in the ball pit. It was a really fun day and good way to end our little stay in Burley.
