McCall Idaho: Family Reunion 2013

Tayler Young and Tage Kinsman (Kasey's little boy)
 I was going to be all great and put these pictures on in a organized manner. Then I had so many that I'm just going to leave it like it is.  I think the pictures speak for themselves anyway.
Jackie and Tyler Jones
 McCall Idaho is a cute little town surrounding Payette lake right next to Ponderosa state park. Beautiful mountains and lot's of trees and wildflowers.  It had just rained a little when we got to the resort and the smell was heavenly, fresh clean mountain air.  Smelled just like at the cabin.  I was in love from the get go :)
Doug Kinsman and Tage Kinsman
 We spent as much time as we could playing on the lake.  It was cold but not bad.  The kids just had so much fun.  I love watching them having fun together.
Tage Kinsman, Chance Kinsman and Emma Young

 We played games almost every night.  So much fun and so loud! It was great.

 Tuesday we all rented a Pontoon boat, speed boat and three jet skies.  It was fabulous!  We were at the lake from 9 to around 6 that night. We all slept really well that night.

 This cute little Fox was at this location everyday.  We got a kick out of taking pictures of him.  He was fed very well by all the kids at the resort, one morning he had a sucker :)

 We can't go on vacation without some shopping :)  We had just bought some ice cream down the famous ice cream alley (it is really down an alley, walking on gravel  past propane tanks and everything) when we came across Russ and Jenni and their family shopping. It was a great time :)

4th of July

Rocky and Hope
 Really this is the Third and Fourth of July.  Hope was able to go to the lake with us on the third and Emma was able to go on the fourth.
Tayler
 We decided to buy a couple of Kayaks, they were on sale for a good price and so we splurged.  It was fun, they aren't super fancy but we were able to go out on the water and have some fun and that is all we were looking for.
Hope

Rocky and George
 Everyone thought Rocky should take a spin in one, our dog is 100% a land lubber.....I really think he would drown if he fell in.  He took it ok but doesn't get too close to the water.
 On the fourth the whole lake was packed!  I mean not any beach area was open.  So we went to a pull out area and just hiked down to the lake, we weren't the only ones with this idea but we were pretty much by ourselves.
 Emma was sneaking up on me when I was taking pictures, she wanted me to get all wet and yucky :)
Emma

  George was able to stand on one of our tubes!  Not for long but he did it, I was impressed!



















 We enjoyed our day, it was nice and refreshing.  We finally decided it was time to go when the people to the side of us decided Haag lake needed a nude beach area :(  Other than that yuckiness it was a great day.  We went home and had a yummy bbq and baked a cake for Ryley (Happy Birthday Ryley!) and then we went to fireworks.......it was a very nice day!
