Week of Visiting

This is the only picture I took on our whole week of visiting family!
On Monday the kids and I went to Blackfoot to my parents house. My Mom and the kids and I did some Geocacheing at the Gravel Pit in Morland. It is actual very pretty with all the tree changing colors. Later we did two more when my Dad got home. The next day Tami (my sister in law) came over, and I did some shopping from her trunk. Then we were off to Rexburg. We went to my sister Michelle's and that is were the kids rode the little four wheeler. Tyler loved driving around the parking lot and on the sidewalks. We did have a couple of accidents, but everyone it OK. We tried to do a few Geochaches, but with no luck there was one by the temple but it was very close to the highway and we did not want to bring five kids by it (plus they were pretty noise for the temple grounds). We tried the park, but we could not find it either.
We went to my brother Shawn that night. Tyler loved playing the Wii. Especially Paper Mario and Wii Fit! He said, " Ha, I'm exercising?"
The next morning we went to Gabe's preschool and had breakfast with him. The kids played for forty five minutes before we left. Even Tyler had a good time. He was not sure about going to Pre school. After that we went back to Blackfoot. Kristin (my sister) was there that day with her kids and we worked on lots of vinyl projects. That evening by brother Kory came over.
We left the next day and came to home to Grace. We I said to the kids lets go get Bud, they said we forgot we had a dog! Cam came home that night to bring a lode of bull home. We were so excited to tell him about our adventures. We went to the range and I will make another post to talk about that. That night my sister Angie came with her kids.
So out of my six brother and sisters I saw five of them!
The kids had a great time playing with there cousins!
There is nothing like an instant friend!

Wow. Nice visit. You know Scott, the 6th sibling is coming this weekend. Maybe Maylyn will be interested in coming to Grace with us on Saturday. I'm hoping I can find some things to buy for Christmas presents.

It must be potato harvest in Grace. The whole time I'm reading I'm thinking "I can't believe Janel took her kids out of school for a whole week!!! No matter where you live it's always nice to go HOME!

Are you ready for school to start again tomorrow? I have mixed emotions about it! Sorry we didn't get together to go geocaching...we've only gone those 2 times. If we don't make it before the snow, we'll have to go in the spring.

Hi Janel, I didn't realize that it has been a while since I looked at your blog. Love all of your posts.
