For Fall Break this year we went to visit Grandma and Papa in Idaho. For me it is always relaxing. I am able to forget the rest of the world for a few days and the kids love the adventure.
My dad was working on reshingling the roof so we got to help. I was surprised that the kids had no fear. They were up and down the ladder all day. Jaycee just wanted to run up there, so she got very limited time on the roof. Jorie would climb down the ladder, collect twigs, climb back up and then proceed to throw the twigs off the roof on the opposite side to watch the cats run for them. It kept her busy for hours.

Jaycee and Jorie (don't you love the CHEEEESE!)While we were there we took the kids (and John) to see Shoshone Falls for the first time. We were surprised by the amount of water still flowing this time of year. It was beautiful.

Wow, great pictures. I did not know about these falls. will have to try to visit them some time. Looks like you all had a fun time working on the roof. The children look so much more older in pictures. Better enjoy them while you can. Before you know it they will be grown up and gone.
Hey Cosette, Great Pictures!!!! The kids are darling as always. Where exactly is Shoshone Falls? We would love to visit them. We went to Jackson Hole for fall break. It was so great to get away. Thanks, Julie
Shoshone Falls is by Twin Falls, ID. You can also see the ramp where Evil Knievel tried to jump the snake river.
