Trip to Boise (yes another trip!!)

Friday night I came home from a SimplyFun party and Jared told me we were going to Boise the next day. So Saturday morning we packed up the car and drove the four hours to Jeremy and Lisa's house . We stayed till Monday morning. I am so tired of traveling. We thought back on the last eight weeks and realized that we have only been home one weekend during that time. Crazy!! Jared was supposed to go to Virgina this coming weekends but thankful he is finding someone else to go in his place. We really need to start working on the house and get it ready to go on the market.
So anyway, Jared's dad was in Oregon for a motorcycle race. I believe he won first in his class! Go Grandpa! Anyway, he decided to head over to Boise for a visit before driving back down to CA. He called and asked if we would come up so he could visit with us as well. And that is why we took the unexpected trip to Boise. We very much enjoyed our trip and the kids had fun seeing Grandpa and playing with their cousin Makale.

Grandpa and his trophy We took RJ fishing. No bites, but RJ still had a blast.





The boys bonded again over pumpkins.

And the kids (my kids) enjoyed pulling out the gunk.

Savannah even tired some pumpkin.

She didn't like it.

RJ tired his hand at drawing a scary face on his pumpkin

Savannah and Makale played in the dog's water bowl.

Pumpkin seeds. Lisa made really good seeds with salt and cinnamon.

With the help from Daddy, RJ's pumpkin had the scariest face of all. He was very pleased.

Jeremy's, Jared's, & Hawk's jack-o-laterns

Grandpa Hawk's birthday is on the 28th, but we decided to celebrate it early with a Steak and shrimp dinner followed by yummy cupcakes that everyone enjoyed.



Grandpa and his three grandkids. Lisa is also expecting so there will be five grandkids next summer. Not sure if we will be able to fit all five on his lap next year.
