Sommerfeldt Family

My second race ever. Ada, Jessie and I ran the Ladies fest race in May. It was an 8km race and I finished in about 52min. It was a great motivator for me to get running and am now really enjoying it!

The kids love pulling out the hideabed to have a movie night. I can't remember what movie they were watching that night, but I love how Cooper got in on the action. Usually he's in bed before movie night begins

Anyone want a drink?? Uhh yeah thats a mouse in there! Just one of the joys of our first weekend out camping! We had kept our trailer out in my Grandpa's feild through the fall and winter last year and the inevitable happened, we picked up a stow away! Our first night sleeping in the trailer after we picked it up, we could hear muffled scratching/rumaging noise, we knew right away it was a mouse and got up and tried to figure out how we could get rid of it, we opened the drawer we heard the sounds coming from, but couldn't see it or catch it! So somehow we managed to go to sleep that night and figured we would get a trap the next morning. After setting the traps the next day we went out for a bit and came back. Geoff eagerly checked the traps fully expecting a catch,  but nothing! So that night we went to bed and nothing moved that we could tell. We got up in the morning and checked the traps again, nothing! we figured the mouse found its way outside and was long gone! WRONG! I was cleaning up in the trailer and looked over to Coopers diaperbag, I noticed his bottle looked kind of weird. When I looked closer I saw that the nipple was chewed half off, so I picked up the bottle and let out a bit of a scream (says Geoff), and there was the mouse. It had chewed off the top of the nipple and climbed in, and could not get back out! So gross! It was still alive and trying to get out. Geoff got a bag and put the mouse and bottle into it and drove it far away! How is that for a camping story!

The kids were so tired!

Jager, being Jager!
It was a great weekend! We were able to enjoy the July 4th weekend in Kalispell and had alot of fun! It was the first year that Geoff was unable to stay down at Echo lake since he was a baby, as his grandparents sold the property, but we were still able to hang out at the lake and catch some awesome fireworks there! We took in the parade, the House of Mystery (our kids always call it the Mystery of House), The Bumper boats and Maze, and had an overall great camping experiance!

Kaiya and Mrs. Taylor
Kaiya was so sad that grade one had come to an end but was sure ready to start
sleeping in. She's really not a morning person. Hmmm... I wonder who she gets that from.
