B-town visit

When I found out the boys had both FRIDAY and MONDAY off of school I knew I had to take advantage and head over to Boise. Nate wasn't invited this time around....he wasn't going to RUIN this trip for me! I didn't need another broken collar bone episode.  Juuuuust kidding! He needed to stay for work. I packed up the boys and away we went!

We squeezed in as much as we could. We played with friends and spent time with my  family. It was so wonderful to see everyone.

Friday we went to the zoo with Nat, Em, Jen and a new friend...Melissa. So fun.


Saturday my dad took the family over to Wahooz for a day full of go carts, laser tag, and mini golf. We ran into our great friends the Langfords there. I was so much fun to see them and hold their cute baby girl!
That night I was able to meet up with all of my friends for dinner at Red Robin. I LOVE and I MISS these girls SO much I can't even put it into words. We stayed from 7-close talking and laughing. I miss me some major GIRL time! Thanks for the fix ladies......I'm recharged once more!
Sunday we went to church at my parent's ward. I kept looking over at this man because I KNEW I recognized him. He kept looking over at me like, "Who is this crazy woman starring at me?" Finally I went over to him and asked him if he was from Idaho Falls. He said that he was. I was like, "Are you the news anchor on channel 8?" And he was! How funny! I guess his son just moved to Boise and is in my parent's ward. RANDOM.
Monday I met up with my darling friend Aubrey and her family. We went to Chuck E Cheese and let all of our BOYS go wild. I love that she has 4 boys and she completely understands how it feels to be surrounded by testosterone 24/7.!

From there we headed back home to our dad who hates when we are gone. He's good for about 2 days alone and then he can't stand it anymore. It is nice to be missed. :)
 I really do miss Boise....especially the people there. I drove through my old neighborhood and saw that all the homes that were for sale when we put our home up on the market are STILL sitting there. I felt extremely fortunate.
I thought I would be sad to go back home to Idaho Falls but surprisingly I wasn't. Boise is great....and Idaho Falls is good.

It was fun to see! I'm glad we haven't had to go too long in between visits and I'm glad you are accepting Idaho Falls!

sorry we missed the chuck-e-cheese fun, my parents came home from canada late sunday so we did my dads birthday before the game started.

Nice to finally meet you and get a cameo on your blog.
