ANNUAL VACATION TO IDAHO!!!!!!

Each Summer our Family goes to Idaho for vacation.
We usually stop in SLC, Utah and play for a day or two
then head to Idaho.....here is what we did.........

First stop was the Church history Museum in Salt Lake City.

The kids thought how tough it would be to put all their
stuff in a wagon and head west.

Statue Moroni--facing the statue on the SLC Temple.


A replica of a ship the pioneers came across on.



They had a kid play place where they could dress up and
be part of the manger scene.

Jacob Loves Trains!


Next stop was Bruce's Missionary Companions Home.
He owns farm animals. Their name are the Marriots.

They played with the goats.


Played on the Haystack--this is their youngets son
with Jacob.


Rebecca learned to ride a horse all by herself.


He saddled up 4 of his horses so we all could ride.


We all had a great time and tons of fun.




Sariah tried to catch a chicken but couldn't.


Next stop was Lagoon and Lagoona Beach.


We rented a Motel not Far From Lagoon.


The motel had a shuttle service that took us to Lagoon
when it opened at 11 a.m.


Then picked us up that night at 7:30 p.m.


We took a train ride and never knew that Lagoon
had animals.

We rode on the rides.



The kids had tons of fun.


Sariah cried a little on her first ride, but then had fun on the rest.



They had a train museum , and Jacob didn't want to leave it.
He thought it was totally awesome.
He saw this village in a huge glass case and looked at his
dad and said "Daddy I want that for Christmas".lol. His dad
told him when he got older and got his own home he could have a
room built special so he could put a train village in it.

Tons of trains

More trains


Jacob loved all the trains.



Some of the rides said that the older girls were to big ro ride.

Next few pictures are just of the kids on rides.






The old woman's shoe from the nursery rhyme.

The ferris wheel was really big, scared me to go that high.


Sariah on her last ride of the day.


The kids all won a stuffed animal.

If you ask the girls about Lagoon they will tell you
not to go on the white roller coaster-it scared them.
This was the only big rollercoaster Bruce took them on.
Mitzy is so skinny she started slipping under the bar and almost fell out.
She said she would never ride a roller coaster again.
Next stop was the Pocatello Zoo.


Next stop was Burley Idaho
Bruce's Grandpa has the most darling park by his house.
Called the Story book Park.



All the materials, and time were donated.

The next few pictures are from the Park
































We had fun in Idaho. All vacations must come to and end:(
We packed up and headed south.

Last stop was the Clark Planetarium.

Walking on the Moon, Bruce and Mitzy are catching stars in their mouth.


Walking on mars, Jacob saw an Alien.







This scared Sariah.



The moon. We had fun and are exhausted. now for a week
to recover:)
