After gassing up our vehicles and grabbing a bite to eat, we traveled to my brother Ryan's home in Idaho Falls. The drive was quite scenic. I was amazed by the different landscapes and how pretty the lava fields were to see. Wish we could have made it to his home earlier in the day. The dairy we passed by on the way to their home was really inviting!

We got there just about sunset and it was beautiful. Their was also a huge temperature change and I welcomed it. Something about cooler air and a lightweight jacket is calming. Their front lawn is so green and pretty too. We toured the inside remodeling work, the kids played, then set out sleeping bags for the kids downstairs and they watched a movie while us grown ups chatted away. After all the kids fell asleep, Hailey Rae joined us. She is like her father and has an amazing ability despite being tired to stay awake. She was super tired but wouldn't just go lay down in an unfamiliar place without us. Silly girl. We crashed for the night in the boys bedroom downstairs. I love the setup they have. It is a cute house and I can see why they like living there in Idaho Falls now.

Alice and Brady cooked yummy pancakes for us for breakfast. The children played some, we rummaged through a box of pictures and said our goodbyes. We had plans to spend a few days in Yellowstone National Park. Thanks for letting us crash at your house. Next time we will stay longer - promise!

Beautiful Caroline!
