We were blessed with a visit from Kelly, the kids and their dog for 3 days last week. Josh was at camp with the church kids so Kelly drove everyone over to Boise from Gresham! This was her first time driving with 3 kids and a dog in the car by herself for 6 1/2 hours. She was so proud of herself and we are glad that she did - giving us a fun time to play! We went swimming at the "Y" twice, visited Powell's Candy Shop (a dream for any kid as you can see by the picture), took walks, roasted marshmellows a couple nights, went to the movies "Kung Fu Panda", ate out, played at the park, took a small hike along the Boise River and waded the river. Skyler invented a fishing pole from things he found along the river bank to scoop out fish from the river. We hated to see them leave but Kelly said the return trip was uneventful other than the dog getting car sick over the Blue Mountains. We LOVE having them closer to us!!!
