Our Family Vacation


Aren't family vacations great? Kids create lifetime memories and parents want to go on a real vacation (meaning no kids). But seriously, in this family it is important that we do fun things together, the more positive memories they have the less room to remember the bad ones right? So this year we went to Boise, our state capitol! We stayed at a hotel with a pool, that is a must. The boys enjoyed swimming, playing in a huge playground, a trip to the Discovery Center of Idaho (check it out at www.scidaho.org), a picnic and a trip to the zoo. This is a picture of the boys in a hut in the Africa section of the zoo. I think they all had fun (except for that morning Brenon burned his finger on my curling iron and two seconds later Trevor got his hand slammed in a door). We had tons of fun and brought home lots of souvenirs, including some new stains on the carpet in the van. Hopefully we can continue to have these annual trips together so that someday the boys can look back when they take their kids on a trip and realize that their mom was a brave soul.
