Yes, this is TESS driving us up to Idaho! She did a great job driving on the trip. On our way home a deer actually hit the car while she was driving. It was barely dark and she saw a BIG doe standing right in the middle of the next lane. She yelled and laughed "Hey Chloe, a deer!" They had been joking the whole trip that she would hit a deer. Then just as we passed it, it turned toward the Suburban and ran into us, hard. Thunk thunk! Tess slowed down and let out a scream but not swerving or panicking. It was pretty funny after we all calmed down a bit!

This is what Chloe thinks of Tess's driving!

My nephew, Jake, LOVES me! He was my little buddy the whole time we were staying with him and his family in Pocatello. It was fun to be a celebrity for a few days :)

On our walk to the park down the street Tess and Hailey had fun taking lots of pictures.
Here's a neighbor with an interesting chew toy

Beautiful flowers!
