Jake's Home Mate!

We took a final trip to Idaho before the start of school to welcome Uncle Jake home from the Sydney Australia North Mission.  It was so fun to see him after two years apart, the all the kids took to him like it was yesterday - except for Max!  It took a full 24 hours for him to warm up to Jake.  

As always - Idaho proved to be full of fun and cousins.  We made the most out of our trip; hitting up our favorite eats and fun spots.  We even laced up the old roller-skates for a fun afternoon of skating.  We were so grateful to be able to be apart of Jake's homecoming and have the kids witness the great experience that his mission was.

  

Jack and Lyv tested out Great Grandpa Frank's motorized swing.  Michelle moved it from Granny's house to hers after it was sold so the family still gets to enjoy it for generations to come.  Smiles all around.

Lyvie rockin' the limbo! and Jack was the man of the hour.  He had never skated and he was determined to figure out how to do it within the 3 hours there.  He fell literally a hundred times.  But bless his heart, he dusted himself off and tried and tried and tried and tried…..and tried again!

Riding the crazy Rollerskating Train!
