The first weekend in March we decided to drive to Pocatello and surprise Aunt Sam for her birthday. After careful planning with Dani and keeping the kids away from the phone for a few days we were able to pull it off. I have to admit I don't think I have ever heard someone scream so loud, and she was all the way across the parking lot! We had a blast spending the weekend there. And much to our delight Ken and Allison also came up from Utah and Trica went down the day before us, so we had a slightly smaller then normal family reunion. The first night we ended up going rollerskating and then crashing at the hotel. Emilee really liked the rollerskating.
The kids were so excited to see everyone, and I think that they really enjoyed staying in the hotel now that they are old enough to sleep in the bed and go swimming. we were able to get joint rooms and they really liked being able to go next door with the girls, and Ken of course.
Working up the courage....
Brave Boy!
It's a good thing I know my kids love me because the whole weekend they wanted nothing to do with me! I guess that is what happens when you end up with such cool Aunts and Uncles!
Saturday we went out to dinner at Chilis to celebrate and ate lots of yummy food, Jake really went to town on the corn!
We had a great time but the weekend went way to fast! I was really glad that we went and that we were able to keep it a surprise!
