Holiday weekend fun!

This past Labor day weekend we spent time down in Boise with family and what fun we had!! Our days were filled with train rides, parks, ice cream, and fun in the water. Josh's sister and her family are there and they had yet to meet our littlest one so we thought it was high time we introduce her to them, as she is pushing ten months and all. What a great time we had catching up with each other and just enjoying the weekend away.

Saturday we took a three hour train ride which was full of robbery, gunfights, drama, and even a wedding! It was one of the main highlights of our trip and one that Anthony had been looking forward to for almost a month. This is right before the gunfight which left Anthony in tears.

The wedding ceremony took place on the trip home.




Sunday after church we promised the boys a little fun in the sun so we hit a huge park near Audra and Ryan's home. It was amazing!

My boys making some music.

And some more music.

Then it was time to cool off in the water area of the park. Anticipating the bucket dump.

Sam...and look you can see where he lost his first tooth!

Miss Stella trying to hose down her auntie. Thank goodness the thing wasn't loaded.



Harper waiting patiently for her turn in the water.

Next stop...ice cream!!

Then it was off to the pool for some more fun.

Harper wasn't to sure about the water at first...
...but she eventually warmed up to it.

We had such a great time, Audra and Ryan, and there were many, many tears from Anthony when it was time for goodbyes. Thanks for all the memories!
