30!

Now last week it was my turn to finally turn 30. I had a great birthday. My parents came up and stayed with us for several days. They made breakfast. Travis was able to get the day off work and we all packed up and headed for the mountains. Now, usually every year for my birthday I go camping. It is one of my favorite things to do. Celebrate life, be with family and enjoy God's earth. Well, this year Travis had to work and couldn't get 2 days off in a row so we just went up to Targhee National Forest and kicked it.

This is a picture of the lower falls.

We went to Mesa Falls. Beautiful water falls outside of Ashton, Id. Olivia loved everything about it. The falls were beautiful. Especially after all the rain we got, the whole area was really green. (what a great sunny day we had amongst all the rainy days of last week)

It was great to have my parents with us. This is on the scenic look-out for the lower falls.

We hiked a bit, we talked, we laughed, had a picnic and we got lost-kind of. Travis took a long detour and we ended up finding snow and had a snow ball fight. YES, on June 19th we had a snowball fight!!

We had a great day. We found some ideal camping spots for this summer and some good kayaking water. WOOHOO!!

Thanks for my birthday wishes. I have everything I could ever ask for.

1. A beautiful little girl who loves the outdoors as much as I do.

2. A husband that is my best friend and loves and lives with great passion.

3. Parents that are always there and care.

4. God's beautiful earth! Oh how I love the mountains and I am so grateful for the place we live and the beautiful land we can enjoy.

5. I love my friends and family for all their well wishes and love that they sent me. I am so blessed!

What a great birthday you had! I should make that my tradition but camping in the end of November is usually a bit cold. Maybe I'll just make it a tradition to go somewhere with heat year round. Anyways, Happy Birthday again. Love ya!
