Visit to Malta!

We went to Malta this last weekend and stayed with Richard and Marlenes Family. Here is a picture of Dyllon, Lilly, Brianna, Matthew, Jesse, and Zeb. We had lots of fun playing in the creek and sprinkler and Jesse and Matthew road the little yellow fourwheeler. I didn't get a piture of them though on it.

Brianna and Lilly played so well together.

HE IS SO TALENTED!

We are so blessed with the talent Robert has been blessed with. He is great to have around and can do and fix anything. We love him so much. He dicided to weld a swingset together for the kids this summer and they love it. He even welded the glider together. He made up the design in his head and it all worked out great. Our kids love it. Matthew especially loves the monkey bars. He can already skip one in between when going across. I really think he is part monkey sometimes with all the climbing he does.

This is a picture of our tomato plants and we have strawberries too!

Our Garden! We have a few types of squash, onions, peppers, lots of corn, and lots of peas. And we are even trying an artichoke plant. I like artichokes but Robert does not. We have already been harvesting lots of peas, and when the farmers are done spraying the potato field next to us, we will soon be eating yummy peas and potatoes.

WE SAW BIGFOOT!

On the way home from the zoo, we saw BIGFOOT the Monster Truck. The kids thought it was pretty cool. We even went inside the tire store and got a autographed picture from the driver himself. It was fun to see Matthew's face. He was grinning from ear to ear.

This is the semi that carries Bigfoot.

The Zoo

Yesterday we decided to go to the Pocatello zoo. We had lots of fun with the kids. Here is a picture with them and a coyote in the background. The animals were awesome to see. We saw a black bear, a grizzley bear, and lots more. We loved it!

We also had a picnic before gonig through the zoo. We saw this squirrel and Robert fed it a frito chip. He loved it, and we loved watching him eat it. It was pretty fun.
Me and Brianna!

Playing at the Park

I have been watching a boy a few days out of the week and we decided to go to the park and have a picnic. I did not take very many pictures and this is the only one that is really worth putting on here. They had lots of fun and I know we will be going to the park more often this summer. I also had my niece Lexie with us.

Swimming Lessons

Matthew, Brianna, Lexie, Dyllon, and Skler after swim lessons.

Matthew and Brianna started swim lessons on Monday and we car pool with my niece and nephew. I am also watching a neigbhors kid, Skler for the summer so we take him with us to. They are all having lots of fun and they all love the water.

Our whole Family

So I have not blogged for a while so I decided to post a picture of our whole family. On Mother's Day we all went to my parents house and had a great lunch. We were all there. My Grandpa and Grandma were there along with most of the cousins on my moms side. My parents have 15 grandkids and Crystel is expecting number 4 for her and 16 grandkids for my parents. There are 8 girls and 7 boys so we hope she has another boy to even it up. Plus that will give her two boys and two girls. We love living so close to each other and spending time with one another. It was a lot of fun to be with the Cook side of the Family.
