Boise Trip

So we went to Boise this last weekend for a tennis tournament for Russell. We had a really great time. The car ride was probably the hardest part. Because as most of you know that children are always asking--after you have been in the car for about 5 minutes---

"Are we there yet?"

So we heard this most of the way there. And because of this trip--Logan has learned how to arch his back when I put him in his car seat. He totally hates it. Oh well he has to sit in it anyway.

So we arrived in Boise on Thursday night. Friday morning we got ready and then took a little trip to Costco (good thing because it saved us $7 a ticket for Roaring Springs). Then we went to Roaring Springs for the rest of the day. Here are a few pictures.

This is Brock and Breanna. They had a great time going down these kids slides!! The boys went on a few bigger slides but I think the favorite for all of the kids was the wave pool.

Hattie enjoyed playing in the kiddie pool--there were these inner tubes and she would spin herself around and around.

Logan had a little nap

We had icecream for a late afternoon snack

Russell was supposed to play tennis Friday afternoon--but he was a little late getting to the park and they already had the line up--so he watched for a little while

and then came back to the water park.

Saturday he played in two tennis matches. Both of them they split sets--which means they won one and they lost one and so they had to play a third set to see who actually won the match.

So each match took them about 3 hours plus to play. Then they ended up losing both matches. Don't worry though--they were both great matches and he had a great time playing.

In the afternoon match-- I went to watch and

it looks like we have a future tennis player on our hands. We had a great time in Boise, at the water park, playing tennis, shopping, and most of all spending time with Aunt Darlene and Uncle Garry!!

Breanna wanted to stay at their house FOREVER!!

Heading home--the kids reallized that it was a long trip so they were content to watch movies

It was a good ride home!!
