Our trip to Rexburg

The kids and I went to Rexburg in the middle of August to have some fun. And boy did we have fun! Our week was jammed packed with excitement.

We met Leslie and the kids in Idaho Falls to do some shopping and lunch at The Great Wall. (yummy)

The little kids wanted to do this fake "build-a-bear" at the hobby store where Adam got his TOTALLY AWESOME remote control car. The animals were pretty lame, but the kids loved it.


The next day we spent at Twin Bridges. Emma was pretty quick to take the plunge...


...quite a few times, in fact. Go Emma!!


Ryan hung pretty close to the big kids. No bridge jumping for him.


He loved playing with the boys in the fast current of the river.


Adam and Chelsea taking a breather.


Ryan was the perfect size to fit in the holes in the rock. He said it was his bathtub.


After bridge jumping, we went to dinner at Big Judd's.


Chelsea and Emma enjoyed decorating their fry sauce.


Dig in!! Huge, huh?!


Oh yeah...and Leslie made me help her paint her dining room. UGH!! I think she forgot that--Andrea doesn't paint!! Turned out nice, though.


Maren and Emma had a fun week of playing together. They enjoyed lots of Disney Channel, and playing house with their babies. Cute cousins!


John took us to get popcorn quite a few times at his office. While we were waiting for the popcorn to pop, he let me take a few tractors out for a spin.

The Rexburg temple on our way to get popcorn. A little blurry picture, but such a beautiful temple.


This one was my favorite, the Gator. (I'm pretty sure because it was the easiest to maneuver.)


That's right...hang on, John! I practically jumped the curb...LOL.


This one was fun, too. A little slower than the gator.


And this was the big one I drove. I had a little trouble driving this one. John said it was because I was in 21st gear instead of 1st. Go figure!!



Next time I visit maybe I'll try something bigger!!! Thanks guys for such a fun week. We all had a blast!

Sounds like you had a lot of fun in good old Idaho. I keep forgetting to call you, but we are all planning on scrappin' in October. Let me know what the food assignments will be.
