Another Round at Gozzer

We so enjoy our time with the family up in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.  It is so beautiful with the lake surrounded by mountains filled with the great fir trees that is everywhere in our Pacific Northwest.  I have shown many pictures of the lake and boating activities that we enjoy there, this time I have just a few new photos to show you and some new stories too.

First...Scott, Jamie and Dina all played in the Gozzer Club Championship....Scott was in the "senior" division, (which BTW...he WON!!!)  Jamie in the championship division and for the first time ever...Dina played in the Women's Division.  Her father and husband talked her into playing!  Now, what you may not know about Dina is that she just started playing the end of April...so she was a bit nervous about playing in a tournament and not knowing the rules.  But guess what?  She got a very nice framed plaque by coming in 2nd with the net score!!  How cool is that!!  And she played with a lady whose name is Janet Jones...she is an actress, has been in many movies and maybe the last one that I recall is "A League of Their Own" and let's see, Madonna played in that along with Geena Davis and one other lady, but I am blank on her name...oh well.  What you may associate Janet Jones with is the great Hockey player, Wayne Gretsky because she is married to him...they have 5 children from 22 years to 7 years old.  Their younger son is Tristan and he is 10, we hooked him up with Caleb and they had several days of playing together.  Ellie and Lily and Jalen all went over to their house to play with Emma the 7 year old daughter and to swim at their house.  So now I have some pictures to share of their backyard.  They have a lovely home on the Gozzer property and they also have 2 cabins for house guests.  They have a swimming pool with a diving board, a hot tub and then what grabbed everyone's attention was the two slides...oh such fun the kiddos had with the slides....Jalen was not shy at all and had no fear, he was barreling down the slide before his daddy was even at the bottom pool to catch him!!!

Doesn't that look like a blast?

Ready, set, GO!

Now, don't you think we need one or two of those in our backyard...oh... in the neighbors back yard?  The kiddos had so much fun and what great exercise because you know they did have to walk all the way back up to the top to go down again!!

the outdoor exercise room

This exercise facility was right next to the Gozzer swimming pool, tennis courts, basketball courts, and several other options on the courts.  Such a great place to pass the time with the family!
