Their first time in Idaho!

Joshua's Grandma, Aunt and cousins came to visit us in late June. We had a great time visiting with them and showing them what we love about Idaho. I know I've said this before, but we LOVE Idaho weather...and that means it's beautiful in the evening to hang out on the back patio and light the chiminea. And of course, when the fire dies down a bit, you MUST make s'mores!


Two of Carter's favorite things in the world are chocolate and graham crackers...so you can imagine the bliss of this picture...

I've also said before that the reason we originally moved to Idaho was the Snake River Gorge. So there was no question that when Grandma and Aunt Cindy wanted to "see the sights of Idaho" we took them straight there.

Eeeeks, don't lean too far over, guys!!!

Woohoo, we had someone with us so ALL FIVE of us are actually in one picture!

Kudos to Cindy for thinking of taking this shot where you can see the river too!

This is a super fun spot too. I don't think it has an official name as it's just sorta there, and unless someone tells you about it, you'd never even know when you drove by. We call it "That Place On That Road Where You Can Pull Off By The Concrete Barrier And Walk Behind The Water Fall."

Say CHEESE, Lexie!

I snapped this one when Cindy, Tyler and Lexie were posing for Grandma's camera...

We also took them to Shoshone Falls, which is sometimes called The Niagra of the West because it is actually higher than Niagra Falls.

One more family picture...

Last stop on our trip was Carmella Winery. Joshua got his love of wine from Grandma so it was a must to stop and let them do a little wine tasting together. CHEERS!

We had a wonderful visit with you guys...come back soon!!!
