Trip Home!

Nils, Jacee and I went home to Idaho this past weekend. Nils' sister Viktoria, her husband Troy and their daughter Reese came down from California. And also all of my dad's siblings were visiting. We got there Thursday night, and just hung out with my family. Friday we went with my sister Kim her kids, Katy, Madi, my Aunt Lori, Uncle Dennis, cousins Wayne, Jennifer, her husband Ryan and thier son Jayden, Aunt Sherri, and Lori and Dennis' clients, to the alligator farm and to see the sturgeons. It was a fun little trip and afterwords we met the rest of my visiting family at my Grandma Anderson's house. Nils and I didnt stay long because we were meeting his mom, stepdad, and sister in law at Canyon Crest to eat. It was a nice dinner. Saturday we had a family dinner for my dad's side at our house. There was a lot of cousins and aunts and uncles there that I don't get to see much, so it was nice. We had a big lunch and afterwords we played games and just talked. Sunday we went to our niece Reese's 4th birthday party. It was fun, and good to see everybody. That night Nils went home and Jacee and I decided to stay for a couple more days. Monday night Katy, Madi, Jacee and I went to Kim's house and had s'mores. Eligh and Madi played in the mud, it was really funny! Tuesday we went to Madi's tball game. It was interesting. After that we went to the elementary playground and let the kids play. Wednesday Christine came down! We all played a family baseball game that night! It was me, Mom, Dad and Kim against Christine, Katy, Riley (Katy's friend) and Madi...we got our butts kicked! The bat broke so we all went inside and played apple to apples. Mom and Madi were a team together and the word was ridiculous, so we all played our cards. I know that I played the Dallas Cowboys, and there was clowns, and Puff Daddy. Madi picked clowns, and Kim was like "Puff Daddy! Come on!" Madi then said "I don't even know what the Puff Daddy is!!" We all laughed, because it was funny! Thursday Mom, Christine, Katy, Madi, Jacee and I all loaded up in the car and drove to Utah. We came to my house and stretched out for a little bit then we drove to Sandy and went to the Mayan Restaurant. We had to wait an HOUR to get in...crazy. It was a really neat place. The food was good and they had cliff divers, so that was pretty cool. All in all it was a great trip, and I'm always thankful to spend time with my family!
