Day 3-Moose and Mallards!

Monday-what a great day we had today!  The kids were up eeeeaaarrrly!!!  :)  We had pancakes for breakfast and the kids got to pour their own syrup, a big deal to them, and we drove to an overlook and took a path around.  I thought for sure we would be swimming, but Zane changed his mind and it was set to going on a hike.  What a beautiful day!  And gorgeous views.  Rachey was so involved in taking pictures with her camera and Zane loved his new walking stick.

She has so much business.

Lake Dillon

Zane wanted to bring all his stuff.  Binoculars, etc.

Love them! 

A picnic table means snack time!

A sail boat. 

After this we went to a near by Walmart and got some cold stuff-then had to go to Safeway to get fresh vegetables and fruits.  Walmart didn't carry them! 

After lunch we spent an hour in the swimming pool!  So many giggles from the kids-everyone had fun.  The water was a little cool so we stayed about an hour.  Then everyone needed more snacks after all the swimming!

Snacks and a discussion about redfish because of Daddy's shirt.

Discussion continues and Rachey has a milk mug!

We found five star wars puzzles at the condo!  Working on our first one.

 We were walking back toward our condo but wanting to continue on the path when a runner turned around and came back to us.  There was a moose directly ahead and he was nice enough to let us know.  He didn't know if it was friendly or not, and we turned around because we didn't want to get too close. 

A moose!

 We went a different direction and crossed the Snake River that goes right behind our condo a couple times.  It is really moving.

Mr. and Mrs. Mallard!

Watching the ducks!

The moose had moved even closer to our condo!  I was really hoping it would come even closer so I could take pictures from our balcony, but it didn't. 

Finished!  (only 125 pieces) Rachel did a great job though and really seemed to like doing it.  Zane likes to swoop in as we are nearly done and put a few in.  :)

Zane really really really wanted a fire in the fireplace so Daddy said yes.  It was cool outside and it was pretty to watch it.  Rachey didn't like it at first, but she came around.

 Until next time!
