Island Park Family Vacation 2008

We had our Nick and Miriam Annual Family Reunion up at Island Park, Idaho. We stayed in a log home just a short distance from Island Park Reservoir. Jarom brought up his boat and Scott brought up the Rhino and we had ourselves a ball. One day the boys went fishing and golfing in the morning and the girls went to a spa in Rexburg for some tender care. Adrien had a chocolate pedicure, Amie had a mother-to-be massage, Kim had a massage and Lacee and I had facials. I thought I had died and gone to heaven!! After the treatment we had to hurry and buy a rootbeer float with some fries for our pregnant Amie (all you women know about those cravings). We went waterskiing, 4-wheeling, and even caught a couple of plays at the Playmill in West Yellowstone which was fun. We did go into Yellowstone and that was fun. The only casualties were two big goose-eggs and a scraped nose on Easton, bless his little heart. The only thing that would have made this vacation better is if Spencer could have come. He had to work. We missed Brett, but we would rather have him in the mission field right now. Here are some pictures:

Logan was always so cute with Clay. He would rock him to sleep.
Here are the kids at Old Faithful, Dax, Logan behind Emmie and Allie
Here is the family. Front row: Allie, Kate, Easton, Dax, Emmie, Logan and Landon. Back row: Jarom, Adrien, Lacee, Scott, Me, Kim, Clay, Nick and Amie. Brion was taking the picture.
We had lunch in Idaho Falls going up. The Idaho Falls temple was right across the river. Kate and Easton enjoying their lunch.

We put on a movie for the kids while we fixed dinner. Landon, Allie,Dax, Emmie and Logan.

Little Clay was a trooper. He was happy the whole time. He slept in the car, in the stroller, smiled at everyone and just loved being whever he was.
Amie, Adrien, Me, Kim and Lacee after our treatment at the spa. It is a little blurry, but don't we look refreshed?
Here the adults are playing NERTS. It is a fast paced game that they all loved to play. We took tons more pictures and hopefully the girls will put some of theirs on their blogs. We had a great time together and can't wait for our next adventure together!!!

Wow what a fun group to hang out with. I love facials too, you feel like you're a bit younger for a day or two until things settle back to normal. You do look like you are glowing. Glad you had such a good time. Grandbabies are all adorable. I'm glad Kim has such a good baby, and he looks like he's the only non tow-head.
