This labor day Will went hunting so the kids and I took a spontaneous trip to Pocatello on Sunday. We got up and ready and out the door we went. We took a detour at the Shoshone Falls. The kids had fun watching the water. Emilee got a little uneasy on the lookout but she warmed up.
The kids got to smash pennies with the design machine and pick out postcards so they thought that that was pretty exciting. After the falls we stopped in the Garden of Eden Travel Center. The kids have really enjoyed stopping there on our trips east so I decided it would make a good pit stop. (With Jake potty trained and this being the first big trip we stopped a lot!) Emilee wanted a picture with the snake in the tree but I couldn't get Jake to stand by it.
When we got to Pocatello Al and Ken were ready and waiting for us..... with this! I think they missed Em and Jake! Nothing like getting all that energy out after a long car ride.
Uncle Ken had to adjust the straps and Jake got a little squished.
And if that was not enough..... Nothing like sugaring them up after wearing them out!
Em and Jake got to learn how to make cotton candy. And they ate lots of it. Who know there was more than just blue and pink. We got introduced to all kinds of cotton candy and the kids tried all 15 flavors of it.
Orange
Green Apple
Pina Colada
I love this picture.... I think it was towards the end of the flavors.
The kids got to spend the night at Al and Kens new apartment and then we went the next day to help Ken get some new fish for his tank.
They also got to see Tricha, Sam, Dani, and Dusty that day. What could be better than a weekend filled with that! Will actually met us in Pocatello (he was hunting just outside of Soda Springs) and drove home with us. It was a great weekend and a big thanks to Al and Ken for making it such a fun time for the kids! We love all you guys in Pocatello and we are really glad that it is as close as it is!
