Here is our attempt at a family picture. It would have been great, but Hailee didn't really want anything to do with sitting on our laps.
We got there Friday night. We were a lot later than we had planned. We ran into a few delays on our way there. A wreck on highway 20 in the construction area where we had to wait for 30 minutes or so, and then at the Walmart in Rexburg on our way out of our parking spot, someone else decided to pull out of their parking spot behind us at the exact same time, so we had a minor little collision. So by the time we got there, we didn't have much time except for setting up to go to bed.Saturday morning, my mom put on a treasure hunt for all the grandkids, it was awesome! They had a lot of fun
My mom had gone all around the area and had hidden a lot of different clues for them.

A pic of my sibs and me. We hardly ever get to see each other all at once, so it was really fun!
Later that day we went to the cute little canoeing pond.
Nana, Kathleen, and Elsie getting ready to canoe too!
We were all having fun splashing each other, when my brother Brent accidentally tipped his canoe over with his kids! Luckily everyone was safe and had their life jackets on. I bet the water felt so good because it was so hot!
Saturday night we went to the celebration thing they do in Driggs where they have Glenn Beck as a speaker and then do fireworks afterward. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening. It was beautiful! Here is a picture of Glenn Beck up there on stage.
The fireworks were amazing. It would be impossible to have a bad view. We were actually clear in the very back sprawled out on the grass, but the golf course where it takes place is shaped like a gigantic bowl so everyone has a great view and less crowds! I definitely prefer this firework show over the Idaho Falls Melaleuca one!
Here's the entire family together. This hardly ever happens!

you look beautiful! and that actually sounds like a perfect way to spend the 4th...minus the fender bender. (:
Wow! Sounds like a perfect All-American weekend! It makes me feel pathetic for how un-patriotic my weekend was. Sorry about your collision and glad it wasn't severe! Still no fun, I know. Fun to see your whole family together!
It was so fun. I'm glad we took a family pic because we didn't get any of just us as a family so it doesn't look like I was there at all. So now there's proof that I did come! LOL!
(Brent) These are great pics! The whole family one turned out really well. I did not know about you little fender bender. Did it do much damage?
