We started our journey by driving to Las Vegas where we stayed at Circus Circus. While we were there we went swimming, walked some of the strip. We thought it would be fun to see the Pirate show at Treasure Island, much to our surprise it is no longer a cute kid friendly pirate show. Wish we had known, we would have stayed in our hotel and forked out the money and let them ride the roller coaster.
We got to Boise just in time to make my dad some of Loren's famous rice crispie treats before he got home from work for his 57th birthday.
The kids got to ride the bumper cars and had their fun with all of the arcade games with Gma and Gpa Idaho.
Always a favorite, jumping off the swings. Boise has some of the coolest parks!
Tyden, Gma, Brigg and Gpa checking out the 8 foot sturgeon in the water.

After about a week we drove to Utah for a reunion with my family at my brothers house. Before we got there, we stopped off at Byron and Jana's house for a fix with our favorite friends. We stayed up later than I have stayed up in a long time and laughed way to hard. They next day we said hello to some more fun friends, then on to my brother's house. All of the cousins under one roof for 3 days and it was a blast. My little bro and his family did not come because his new born was sick with RSV. So we are missing 2 kids. We cooked outside and ate our food in the garage, it was true Lungren style. We played basketball, soccer and kickball. Isaac turned 12 and Kamryn had a superb violin recital.
Before we took off for home, Tyden got to open his present from my parents and we sang the first of many happy birthdays to Tyden.
10 hours later we were home in our own beds. A lot of driving for some good ol family time, it is worth it but very hard at the same time. I wish we could get together more often. Brigg wants a telaporting device for Christmas so we can touch him and he can beam us to Idaho. Me too bud, me too.
