While we were in Idaho we were able to spend time with many members of my family. As always we loved getting together with all of them.

Dinner at Uncle Gumby and Aunt Kristi's house.

Jared doing flips on the trampoline. It really did end better than it looks like it will here.

Gwen and her cousin Lizzy look so much alike that it constantly amazes me. However, you can definitely tell which one lives in Arizona.

Playing in the water with cousins. These girls loved playing together.

My birthday and Father's day fell on the same day this year so we got to celebrate together.

While we were in Idaho my brother Bob and his wife Tasha had their 9th child. They had a little girl who was born on my birthday. Since she was born on my birthday and I am also the 9th child I tried to convince them that this was a sign that she should be named after me, but they didn't go for it. That's okay, she will still have a special place in my heart.

Taycie Grace Lamoreaux was born on June 20th and weighed 8 lbs. 13 oz. She is such a cute and sweet little baby.

Even though she had just had a new baby Tasha was a good sport and let us come over and visit a couple of times and even let Nate spend the night with Jace one night. Thanks Bob and Tasha. We loved spending time with your family.

This was part of my children's attempt to convince me that we needed to take home one or more of their cousins' kittens. It did not work.

Ben checking out Bob's new toy. I think he might have drooled just a little.

I'll post later about our trips to Yellowstone and Craters of the Moon while we were in Idaho. Dan and Anne were so great to let us stay at their house and to travel around with us. Thanks so much everybody for your kindness and hospitality while we were in Idaho. Come and visit soon, we would love to return the favor.
