Trip out to Idaho

Before starting our drive up to Boise, we attended the Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House. The kids really enjoyed it. After you tour the temple, they had refreshments in a tent & there was player piano playing hymns. Rick asked, "Lexie, is that a ghost playing the piano?" She replied, "No, that's the Holy Ghost."

I asked Joseph if he could feel the Holy Ghost while we were in the temple & his reply, "I felt Jesus, but not the Holy Ghost."

We did make it to Boise & the kids enjoyed playing at Grandma & Grandpa's house.

On Wednesday, we all headed up to McCall to stay at a cabin & go boating. On the drive up, we pulled over to see a spot where Rick camped with his family as a child. Andrew thought he was pretty cool trying to drive Grandpa's car.

Lexie & Joseph both managed to cut themselves climbing on the trees & rocks. But, they were patched up fine & still had fun.


The kids got to meet their new cousin, Jada. Andrew loved holding her & giving her kisses. And Lexie, loved giving her lots of attention as well.

We were able to go out on Uncle Scott's boat twice & go tubing.

Those were great times. Lexie loved it! We had a lot of fun with cousin's up there & were glad to be able to do so many fun things with them.
