The Lodge Part 2

 We were able to go to the Lodge twice this summer, the second time for the annual Boothe Family Reunion.  It started off with a bang, literally, when a swing banged right into Austin's head.  We had a late night trip to the ER.  It was the only place open.

 Four staples later, we were good to go.
 The next day was the 4th of July.  We headed down into the (little) town to see the parade.  We played catch while we waited for the parade to start.
 Grandma kept all the little ones calm by giving them giant lollipops.

 Cousins.
 The best part of any parade is watching the veterans carry the flag.
 We were in Idaho, so of course, a giant potato is part of the parade.
 Saturday morning, Matt, Brad and Jamison took a bunch of kids on a hike to Darby Wind Cave.

 They had a blast.
 Uncle Todd set up our own outdoor movie theater.
 We were all so happy that Kevin got to come this year.  All the kids would take turns sitting by him while he watched his movies.  Love that boy.
 The infamous swings.  The one on the right is the one that got Austin.
 There were always some games going on.
 A fourth of July feast.
 The talent show.
 More hike.
 Cute girls.
 All the great-grand kids who were there.  I think we were only missing one.
The Peterson family with grandma and Grandpa Boothe.  We were only missing our missionary, Michael!  So much fun.  We love our time at the Lodge.

I just love your family, and I don't really even know them. But they are so great. Ouch on those staples...
