family reunion

It was a slow weekend on the sewing front, so I hope you don't mind if I share some photos from our recent family reunion. In July, we spent about a week in Driggs and Victor, Idaho, which is in the Teton Valley. It was so beautiful! The 22 hour car ride (each way) with a back seat packed tight with babies was totally worth it (I can say now that it is a month later and I am fully recovered).
Really though, as far as beautiful places to visit go, Teton Valley is pretty breathtaking. These pictures were taken at Jared's grandpa's old farm. Grandpa Bagley passed away this past winter, so it was sad to visit the farm without him there to tell us stories or try to teach one of the grandkids how to witch a well. He is missed, but remembered fondly!
He lived in the very definition of a "little red farmhouse."
I don't know how my kids could stand the ice-cold water in this little creek, but they spent every minute they could wading in the water, digging through the rocks, and sending leaves floating under the bridge.
We went on an amazing trail ride with Jared's uncle and aunt. If you ever find yourself in Victor, you should check out Teton Mountain Ranch - they do trail rides, sleigh rides, backpacking trips, and log cabin lodging. Of course, I'm a little biased because they're family, but the trail ride was one of my favorite parts of the whole trip. I had a sweet horse named Stardust.
After the big trail ride, the little kids took a ride at the stable. Oscar and Ruby were thrilled, and still talk about their horses, Kayla and Sunny. Ruby was a natural!
For a kid who is afraid of almost all animals, Oscar sure was brave on that big horse.
We also took a spin through the elk ranch. Those antlers were incredible.
Cora was totally enthralled by the herd.
Of course, you can't go to Driggs without stopping by the Corner Drug for a milkshake. I wish I had gotten at least one more fresh lime freeze.
Thanks for the good time, Idaho! We can't wait to come back.
