Shoshone Falls

I am passionate about a few things in life at the moment and right now some of these things happen to be owls, pandas, hot air balloons & waterfalls. I was beyond stoked to check out Shoshone Falls, just 10-15 min from the Twin Falls, ID temple. Thanks to my friend Scott Jarvie for the heads up about it! It did not disappoint.

The drive in

This caption is for the top right hand picture:

"Now, make a fist. Slowly ease it up underneath your chin..." "hold still right there. Now, just imagine you're weightless, in the middle of the ocean, surrounded by tiny little seahorses." 

Laura, Rocky & lil Riley

Looking down the river towards the left

Sweet little waterfalls on the side of the road. I tried to take a quick picture as we drove by

Before we left we had to make a pressed penny. Rocky had never done this before so it was fun to watch him marvel at the picture that ended up on the penny. Good times! So pretty and peaceful here.

Happy Wedding Day

My brother Jeffrey married his gf McKayla on August 3rd 2012 at 5pm in the Twin Falls, ID temple since the Boise temple was closed or else they might have gotten married there. Laura , Rocky & Riley drove from Utah as well as Tony & I. My sister in Washington and my brother in Arkansas were not able to make it.

I am not sure why these pictures turned out so tiny but here is the newly married couple. You can probably click to make the collage larger

They took a reallly long time to come out of the temple so while we waited outside I got to hold Riley & feed him a bottle. He got a little drunk on his milk it looks like from the first picture. Teehee

Taking random pictures while we waited & waited

My family. Me, my sister, dad, McKayla, Jeffrey (my brother) , Mom and Evan. I'm not sure why Evan is standing so far away from us...

We were finally able to escape to check out Shoshone Falls (next post) and go to dinner with Laura & Rocky. Stopped by the temple later in the evening to pick up our car since we carpooled and I got this night time shot on my camera while Tony was busy using his camera and the tripod to take a bunch of pictures. 

Trying to do a self-shot

There was SO much Lambs Ear. I love this stuff bc the leaves are so soft!
