Like Two Peas In An Idaho Pod

We went to Boise in mid-October to visit Jasper's cousins Lucia and Amelie, who were celebrating their 4th and 1st birthdays. It didn't take Jasper and Lucia long to pick up where they left off after our visit in July...absolutely glued at the hip.




Rick, Andrew, Amelie, Lucia and Jasper doing their best country bumkin' faces during our outing to the local pumpkin patch.



We couldn't get Jasper to come out of this hay maze.





Jasper and Lucia working their way through the maze.



Auntie Nicole with Lucia, and Christy with Jasper, riding on the barrel train.



As soon as it started moving Jasper was all screams and excitement.



This farmer looks like he picked two "knucklehead squashes" from the patch.



Who knew sitting on a pumpkin could be so much fun?



Lucia hugging Uncle Rick after a fun day at the farm.



Lucia and Jasper were jamming out on the giant outdoor xylophones and bongos at the local park.





And here we have Knuckleheads #1 and #2 going down all the slides together.





The kids then had a ball of the time running through the tall grasses.





Rick playing Hide-n-Seek with the kids. We're not sure who's counting and who's hiding?



After a great time at the park, we took the kids for ice cream! Lucia was cracking up her cousin with her comedic skills.



"A priest, a rabbi and a duck walk into a bar..."



Jasper-2 yrs, Amelie-1 yr, and Lucia-4 yrs.



Grandpa Charles (Nagyapa) watching TV with the kiddos.



Lucia showing Jasper the finer points of a riding lawn mower.



More Hide-n-Seek with Rick.



The kids stopped playing kitchen long enough to eat the acid green and neon blue Halloween lollipops from Aunt Dominique.



They worked hard to decorate the pumpkins they picked out at the pumpkin patch.



Our little "lefty".


Ta-Da! What a great visit!
