4th of July fun.. and winners for July Kits!

We had such a wonderful time during the 4th! I forget how green and beautiful the campgrounds are at Heise. Lots of grassy areas for kids to play and plenty for them to do! We ended up swimming both Friday and Saturday.. it was just too hot NOT too! LOL.. but my brother Brady and his wife, Brooke (they own Peachy Cheap, for those of you who scrapbook!). They planned this cool hike for us to do Saturday morning. The place they took us to was so pretty! I forgot to bring my camera, but I know they got some pictures. I need some copies of themso I can post them here! It was alot of fun. Jayla and Cody, alsojoined us.. and we just had alot of fun. I love camping.. it doesn't hurt that we camp in a trailer either! LOL.. but i just love being out in nature..away from the computer, phones.. I like the laid backness of camping. Dirty clothes, simple foods.. just enjoy it. Glad we live in a place where we can go so often and is within a 30 minute drive. We are truly blessed!

So.. we are gearing up today to ship out kits from July.. (before we get ready to take off again saturday!) I am walking in a Relay for Life this friday.. it starts at 6:00 PM and goes until 8:00 Am in the morning. We have a team of 6 (there are supposed to be 10)and one of us has to be on the track walking (or running) at all times during the night. So that should be SUPER interesting! I don't drink caffeine.. so not sure how I will stay awake! LOL.. and then we leave on Saturday afternoon to head to Boise for a famiy reunion on Ben's side. We will be gone for a week.. and I can't wait to spend time with his family. See his brother's and sisters. They are awesome people.

Anyhow.. that's what's going on here!
I have two winners to announce from my giveaway last week!

4th of July Fun.. and a giveaway!

 Well Happy 4th to those in the US (and Happy Canada day this past week too!)

We are off for another family camping trip this weekend.. this time just locally at Heise Hot Springs, but still fun! (last weekend we went to Palisades with our friends, the Hone Family. It was a BLASt). Palisades was amazing.. one of the most beautiful places I have been to in Idaho. We did the real camping thing (not like Heise).. and it was fun! We swam, rode ATV's, played games, sang songs by the campire (made up songs too).. it was fun!  We have already planned another camping trip there in August with the Yancey's. Can't wait!

So.. we are off for Heisi today, Heise is a bit more "camping" friendly.. they have manicured lawn campsites, with hookups. They have bathrooms, showers, swimming pools, a pizza parlor, golfing, atv'sing and even river raft trips down the snake river. We are going with my family for the 4th (a last minute trip we schemed up yesterday! LOL).. but hey it works! We are still close enough that we can go view the Fireworks in Idaho Falls (I have heard the biggest firework display in the midwest!).. So it will be fun. ,

Before I leave,  I wanted to do a quick post about a giveaway we are doing for Scarlet LIme! (our Kit club).
