Boise, ID

The day after Halloween we had the chance to go to Boise for Julia's baptism! They have lived there for well over a year and we had yet to go visit them so this was a great opportunity to do that and it is close enough that the drive was fairly doable :).  It was a quick trip, but we are so glad we were able to be there! We left Friday morning early because Ryan had an appointment he needed to be to by 2 in Boise.  After the appointment we went to Bryan and Annie's house and the kids played and we ate. Then we headed to our hotel so the kids could get to sleep nice and early :).

 Saturday morning we were fortunate to be able to go to part of Julia's last soccer game before her baptism.  Then it was the baptism and me being the idiot that I am didn't bring the invitation with the stake center address-so we went to the wrong church.  Awesome :(  Luckily we were shooting to be there a half hour early so we got to the right church right before it started.

 Then it was back to their house (since the church had been double booked :( ) for a delicious lunch! Again the kids played and played!!

 We had quite the pool party Saturday afternoon before getting some Golden Corral (the kids were in heaven).  Sunday we went to part of church and started the lovely drive back.

 Alli only spontaneously started crying once on the way home because she was so sad to be leaving Audrey and Julia :(.  Soo sad, but I am so glad she has cousins she loves so much (lots of them!) that she misses them!

 Had to put these in because Alli found these killer nails for Halloween that I convinced her not to wear to school so she put them on at home later and they lasted all of 5 minutes-maybe! And yet another sleeping picture.  Notice the 2 stinkers not sleeping????
