SO behind.. Idaho Adventure

 Mid July.. I know like I said I am so behind, we went to Idaho to spend time with Trent's family. Trent and his siblings planned a mini family reunion. Lorrie really was the camp director and she really did such a good job. We had so much fun just being around everyone. It was nice to be back in Idaho staying at Brent and Diane's house, at the same time though it felt strange without them there! I got there Saturday night with my kids, Braxton was so nice to drive up with me. He was such a big helper. The boys look up to him in so many ways. He is a great kid. Trent was stuck in Minneapolis airport because he was flying standby... NOT HAPPY! Cory's girlfriend Dee pulled out all the stops to make sure that he made it to be with his family. Boy, was I glad and grateful. It is a kind deed that will not be forgotten. We had a great time getting to know her too. We headed up to the family cabin on Sunday after church. The kids were all so anxious to get up there and have a good time. We made a  short trip of it and then headed back down to make it to Trevor's baseball game.
 We of course had to fit in a trip to the mall. The kids had a great time playing on all the play land equipment. We had lunch at Cafe Rio too.
 This little missy was all over the place this trip. She was so glad to have the open space to just run.
 It wouldn't be a complete trip without stopping in and seeing Great Grandpa Pat. We love to hear his stories. He was so cute with the kids. He let them each pick out a toy to remember him. Pierce picked out an old Mustang car and Brock got a sea turtle. He even prepared lunch of pulled pork sandwiches and ice-cream and cookies. He is such a great person and I feel blessed to know him. Love you Great Papa Pat.
