Family Vacation!!!

Last week we went on a family vacation. We went up to Idaho and Stayed in Pocatello. We played in the pool and played the pin ball game at the hotel and had a good time as a family. My kids were so excited they have only been to a hotel a couple times so the were in heaven. We went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse, one of our favorites! We got up the next morning and went to Bear World up by Rexburg. The kids loved being so close to real bears. Right now at Bear World they have baby cubs that you can feed a bottle to. For the small price of $50.00 can you believe that what a rip off. They have 5 little kid rides that we played on for a while. We went into the petting zoo and walked around awhile. We had a good time. We headed for home and decided to go the long way up around bear lake. It was longer than we thought so we told the kids we would find a place to stay again. They were so excited of course. Well we got to bear lake and had no where to stay. Long story short we ended up in Logan at a hotel and had a great night, of swimming and pizza! We don't get out much so it was so fun for us and our little family!

Wow, I didn't know Rexburg had a Bear World. That looks like a lot of fun! I'm going to have to take my kids! I love the picture of Jace and the pig! By the way, you look fantastic!

We went and did the same thing last week!! (take the family and stay at a hotel). It's amazing how much fun you can have with your family by not really putting much thought into it. Cute pics!

That is funny about your trip home. Pretty much we had the same experience when we came back from Jackson. Christian assured me that was the best way to go . . . sure a million hours later we were still driving!

Very smart thinking to get up and see bear world. We are crazy about that place. Everyone we tell about it is awe struck at how amazing it is to see so many bears up so close. It really is great, isn't it? I bet you all had a great time getting out and just having fun for awhile. You guys work so hard- you deserved that!

Looks like a fun vacation. I bet your kids had a blast. It's always fun to stay somewhere different & swim & play. Your kids look so cute & you look great. It still is crazy to me that you have three kids. Boy am I behind. It was fun talking to you, too. We need to get together again.

Oh.. So fun. Eric and I want to take a family vacation so bad. We decided that we would wait until next summer and make it a big one. You have such a cute family..

Hey Mandi!!

I randomly came across your blog and I'm SO glad I did! I have been wondering about you guys!! I think the last time I saw you, we were SO pregnant at the Circle of Life and ready to have our babies! I don't think I even knew what you guys ended up having! But your little boy is SO cute! I had my baby June 8 so I think they are only a few days apart!

Your kids are so big since I have seen them! And you look so cute with your hair cut. I'm so glad I can keep in touch with you through blogging. I want to see you in person too though. We are building a house in Tremonton and we will be done in a month or two. So I will be out your way.

Keep in touch. (I totally hope you remember me :). You know, Jake and Tina and you would come home teaching to Jake's parents :). Just kidding. I'm sure you will.

Talk to you soon.
Tina

Family vacations are the best, especially when we are married to farmers. We hardly ever get to have one and they are much needed.
