Oh that lovely drive from Phoenix to Pocatello! The last time we did it was in 2006, before we moved to Minnesota for the first time. We were pulling the boat behind us, so decided to stop in Mesquite and spend the night. We pulled up to the Virgin River Casino and I checked us in. We were worried that we were going to have to sneak all the kids in because we just got one room. How wrong we were! Nobody cared, we just hauled all our sleeping bags and suitcases in, brushed our teeth and crashed. Famous quotes:
Ethan, Eli and Jonah moaning because they were sleeping on the floor. Moan, Groan, Whinge, Whine
Curtis: I think we all need to be grateful that we have a bed to sleep in tonight.
A moment of Silence then:
(almost in chorus): We don't have a bed to sleep in!!!
HAHAHAHAHA. We laughed so much at that one!!
Thursday: Lunch at Tucanos, a stop at Old Navy for Family Picture clothes, and then up to beautiful Idaho for Grandma and Grandpa's Anniversary party. They celebrate 40 years this summer!
I-15 at it's finest
Potato fields and mountains in the distance.
We arrived at the cabin Friday night after a long day of buying groceries and dropping the boat off in Idaho Falls. Everyone else had gotten there earlier in the day and set up.

Grandma and Grandpa and all the kids played some fun games of spoons
Bethany Jo- what a sweet girl
Ethan, what a handsome dude

Goofy Sadie!
Bethany was so willing to let me take her picture, I loved it! Those dirty little hands with blue nail polish are priceless.
These three girls played at this little spot a bunch of times. They were trying to catch minnows.
Love that dirty mug!
Outside Dave's tent- totally Dave.
Jo and Beth using up all the marshmallows!
