Idaho

We had a lot of fun on our trip home! Of course we didn't bring out our camera hardly at all! We got into Idaho Saturday night and stopped off at Brad and Tifani's for a little while. That night we stayed at my dad's house and went to church in Weiser on Sunday. The next night we stayed at Tifani's and had homemade pizza and Thomas' Family pudding with icecream. We stayed up late watching some episodes of "24". On Monday I got my haircut, then later that afternoon we headed up to Idaho City for the reunion. We camped that night and the next night... and hung out with the family and of course ate A LOT! The reunion was fun. The highlight was probably the Tuesday afternoon kickball game... wow, that was intense! We left Wednesday after lunch to my mom's house in Weiser. On Thursday we went to Ontario to do some shopping and run some other errands that we needed to do there. The next day we hung out with cousin's and shot guns for a while. Sean went golfing with all the other guys. Saturday was the big birthday party for Mom and Makinzi, complete with water skiing, presents, horseshoes, and lots of food... Mom never lets us down with her bbq skills (or any kind of cooking for that matter!)  We stayed up late every night watching the olympics on top of all the other exciting things going on. Saturday night we built a fire in the fire ring in the backyard and roasted marshmallows and popped popcorn, we also ate more candy then was probably necessary! Sunday before church mom's side of the family met at the train depot in Weiser for family pictures. After church we helped my dad sort some heifers (cows) that my uncle was coming to pick up,  I miss working with him on the farm... it was fun to be there doing that with him!! After that we headed over to Kuna to stay the last night with Shaun and Christa so we could leave Monday morning and drive back. I was sad to say goodbye (I only cried a little) we had a blast on our trip and it was really good to see everyone! however, it is also nice to be back to the perfect weather of southern California... and our own bed.
