Island Park

This weekend we went to Island Park, ID with my mom and siblings for a little getaway. It was nice to leave home and spend time with my familiy. Erik has started his football season and doesn't get home until late, late during the week and even on weekends he's so pre-occupied with drawing up plays and meetings that it doesn't feel like he's home. We stayed at a friends cabin and just relaxed.
Saturday evening I took Kire with me to Robin Hood, a little play at Mack's Inn. It was totally cheesy, but it was fun and I laughed out loud.

Here's me with my mom and sisters Amy & Julia
On Sunday we drove to Yellowstone. It was windy and both of the boys fell asleep so we just drove around (I think Old Faithful's over-rated anyways). Then we went swimming at the lodge, had a nice dinner and watched Date Night.
It was a short trip and a long drive but I know that if we would have been home we would have just cleaned, so I'm glad we went so we could spend some time together; the boys LOVE spending time with grandma Melanie and their aunts and uncles.

BTW The Northridge Football team is 3-0 so far this season! THe boys love going to games and rolling down the grass field.

HOw fun! Those short trips can be hard but are always worth it! I've always wanted to go to Yellowstone!

Congrats on the wins! You look dang cute in that picture at the football game with the boys and your hair is getting freakin' long too!

Do you want me to e-mail those marathon pics to you? I don't want to post them on FB- I hate me in most of them.
