Grandma's Feather Bed

Do you realize how hard it is to find a positive song that mentions the word in-laws, so this was the best I could do. Although we didn't actually go to grandma's house, she and grandpa came to visit us last weekend. Alicia was ecstatic to have her mom and dad come join us for half a week. At the beginning of the trip we drove to Boise, Id. which proved not to be all that bad of a drive, which made us even more excited to have the possibility to see Ryan and Kristina more often. The reason for the trip to Boise was to see Alicia's cousin Mallorie off to her mission in Dallas, Texas. We know she will be such an amazing, personable, and loving missionary. WHile we were there we stayed with Alicia's Uncle Bryan and his wife Aunt Susan. We love them so much and are so happy to have them as part of our family. It was really nice to see just how happy to see everyone enjoying their time together. When we got back home to Rexburg the thing we most enjoyed was relaxing with Barbara and Kevin. Going out to dinner with them was a plus, but most of all we just really liked spending time with them. One day after Alicia's classes they drove to Yellowstone for the remainder of the day and saw some really cool things. Enjoy the pictures:

Lila loved the green landscape of Boise.

I love my cute girlies!

Alicia reconnected with one of her old childhood friends. She owns a Motel with her husband in Yellowstone.

Alicia said it was so gorgeous.

Lila loved spending time with Nana and Grandpa.

Yes that is a Bison giving birth to a baby bison on the side of the road. What an amazing thing to experience.

Good ol' Faithful.

This is how we see Lila every morning. She stands up and yells until we come in the door to get her.
