Wyoming Summer 2013

Chad went on his annual fishing trip to Canada so the boys and I headed up to Wyoming for the week. We had so much fun and stayed busy playing with all of our friends and family. It was so fun to see everyone and the kids loved playing with their cousins. We went to the Rec Center swimming, pond craw dad hunting, Bear Lake, train park, and Star Valley for the Erickson Family Reunion.

Kysen had been taking amoxicillin for a ear infection and broke out in these welts on day 7 of taking the medicine. We were in Star Valley so we took him to the local Dr there to see if they could do anything for him. The Dr. put him on a steroid to counter act the allergic reaction and within hours you could see a huge improvement. We wont be giving him amoxicillin again. Poor Kid!!

This is before I took him into the Dr.

This was just a couple of hours after taking his fist dose of the steroid. By the next day the spot were barley even there. I was shocked how fast they went away!

We hiked up to the Geyser in Star Valley with my family and my Uncle Chad's family. It was so pretty and an awesome hike. Caden said he wished he could hike it everyday.

4th of July 2013

This year we stayed in St. George for the 4th of July. It was so so so HOT, it had been about 115 degrees all week long, but that didn't stop us from having a GREAT time. We went to the St. George parade then over to the St. George park for kids rides and games, had a BBQ with Chad's family that afternoon and then off to fireworks that night.
