We just returned last night from our visit to Idaho. We didn’t have regular Internet access while we were there so I’m a little late on getting the details out here. We pulled in on the 2nd and left the 29th. We stayed almost four weeks. We were able to spend time with each of family members and have a little fun too.



Some of the things we did:


* Attended Dalton’s Pirate birthday Bash, Jocelyn searched for Treasure
*Went to 4th of July Parade in Buhl, Jocelyn and Beckton got way too much candy
*Enjoyed Pop’s fried Chicken
*Watched CSI’s firework show
* Morgan cooked steaks for my Dads b-day
*Went boating with our good friends Steve and Autumn
*Morgan got to water ski with Kory
*Morgan talked us into an evening at Jackpot
* Morgan and the kids walked potato and corn fields and took a tractor ride
*Took a family picture at the Twin Falls with my family (didn’t turn out great)
*Swam at Banbury’s hot Springs
*Ate Alligator
*Saw the big trout and huge sturgeon in Buhl
*Toured the Hydro-power plant and saw the waterfall
*Swam at Dierkes Lake with Roxy and Kody
*Toured the Twin Falls Temple during open house
*Floated/tubed the river at Lava (Jocelyn’s new favorite activity, Morgan lost his glasses)
*Morgan bought new "stylish" glasses and sunglasses
*Spent a weekend at Bear Lake (where I got hooked on the Twilight Saga)
*Visited relatives in the Buhl cemetery and Dayton cemetery
*Watched the Blue Angles fly (from distance)
* Jocelyn had a camp-out with Poppy and Roxy, a slumber party with Dante and a slumber party with Nana Kathi
*Attended a fish-fry
*Experienced a Japanese steakhouse (excellent grub, everyone should try this)
*Attended Dante’s Scooby-Do/Swim Party
*Listened to my brother Kody give his homecoming talk (from Chile), then watched him start Chemotherapy
I’m sure we did much more, but I can’t remember anything else. It was a busy trip, however we found ourselves bored on occasion, so we bought a Wii, (I’m an excellent bowler and tennis player). It was great to see all of our family and friends, but we are very happy to be in the comfort of our own home.
