Still trying to catch up from summer photos

Jacob and JR went on an overnight back packing trip with two other men.  The weather was beautiful, the fishing amazing (think they caught about 80 fish total) and the hiking hard!

My mom and I recently went to Medora ND to see the musical.  What an amazing production.  Incredibly patriotic second half!  Lots of music and history of Medora and Teddy Roosevelt.  Highly recommend it if you are ever near SW North Dakota.  Before the musical they had a pitch fork fondue with steak and all the trimmings.  All held on a beautiful cliff overlooking the badlands.  It was just shy of a full moon and beautiful evening!

We have had some warm summer days recently.  Headed to the river with Bree and boys!  

Leave it up to Jacob to find a snake!

Jacob is trying to get Joseph to reach down and pick it up.  I made sure to stay far away!

The boys saw a tortilla challenge on Tik Tok and had to participate.  You fill your mouth with water and then take turns slapping each other across the face with a tortilla.  Sounds ridiculous and it is, but hilarious to watch.  Not sure who or how people come up with these ideas.

We checked out a Dueling Piano show.  I had no idea what we were going to but it sounded fun.  We both weren't expecting what it was.  Enjoyed the music but the banter was more crass that I would have liked.  Fortunately, the accoustics was terrible so I did not hear everything that was being said.  We ended up leaving early.

Jacob has had a couple of football scrimmages this summer...not a bad view and it was a beautiful evening.

School starts Aug 25th.  Football 2 a days started on Friday.  Summer is quickly winding down!

 Just some more summer stuff!!

We celebrated this kids 13th birthday on Sunday!!!  Our third teen ager in the house!  Pretty low key birthday, went out to breakfast and had gifts and cake/ice cream

It was also my mom's birthday the following day, so we did a few things that weekend.  We went to a local drive in movie.  This was started just after COVID by a teen ager looking for ways to make money.  This was the beautfiul sunset as we waited for the movie to start after dark.

The movie was my all time favorite ever!!! The Man From Snowy River....I had never seen it on the big screen!

This kid got creative one day with his pringles!
