Chukar's Game

So apparently I was wrong. A "CHUKAR" isn't a car sick kid after long drive on switchbacks. It is apparently also NOT a pregnant woman or someone with food poisoning. A chukar is a bird. To be exact it is: A Eurasian partridge (genus Alectoris) similar to the red-legged partridge, but with a call like a clucking domestic hen.

It is also the mascot for the Idaho Falls minor league baseball team. We got some free tickets and decided to take the fam to a game.


After 2 hours both Landon and Dallin were begging to go home and go to bed. Makes me laugh. They get tired and want to go to bed no matter how much fun they are having!

Parker on the other hand......was begging to stay. Mr. Baseball was in his element. ☺Check out that shaggy hair. We agreed that he doesn't have to cut his hair until school starts. He hasn't had a hair cut since May and he is starting to rock a bit of a mullet. Thank heavens school starts soon.
 As we walked out of the ball park and passed the designated smoking area and the beer booths I couldn't help but snap a shot of the temple in the background. It was just beautiful in front of a purple sky.


 Summer nights and FREE baseball! A good thing!

So fun. I also am a little jealous that you get to have a Temple right in your backyard! It is so beautiful!
