Summertime?!?!

Finally, within the past week, the weather has started to warm up and feel more like summer. Yesterday I think we even hit 80 degrees!! The kids thought that it was hot enough to play in the water, so we headed up the creek! We found this really nice spot, with lots of water and a nice wide area. The only bad part was that we were in the bottom of a small coulee with a lot of trees around us, so I couldn't really see to far out around us. That, and Butch kept acting really funny and the fact that the bears were in that area just 4 days prior, I decided that we should find a new spot!

We found one a little closer to the houses, and a lot more open so nothing could sneak up on us!!

Of course the kids found the big mud hole and proceeded to cover themselves with mud!!

We had a great time playing. Although I will admit that the bear has made me very nervous, so the other day we did go buy a slip-n-slide to have to play with in the yard!!
