Trip to Rexburg, Idaho

We spent our 4th of July visiting family in Rexburg, and had a great time there!
Gracie, our niece, has a stroller for little dolls and Crystal fell in love with it. At first she would push around this little bear...but it wasnt long until she realized that SHE too was little enough to fit in...hehehe. The kids loved pushing her around.





The rest of the time was spent in Rexburg; we had a great time seeing everyone! The BIGGEST hit was watching Crystal with the Strawberry, Rachael's horse. She LOVED the horse and could've spent all night playing with her if she could.




Crystal immediately found her new favorite aunt for the week - she LOVED Rachael to hold her, play with her, and even feed her.


Austin and Brian also built a tree house while we were there. It turned out GREAT and the grandkids love it.


We also made home-made ice cream...absolutely DELICIOUS!!

My sister, Rachael driving us around in the 4-wheeler


Here are some picture at the 4th of July parade...
Brian and Nathan (brother-in-law) were soooo excited to be there...cant you tell?

Stephanie was Crystal's second mom while there.

Randy, Gracie, and Crystal


And MORE of the family reunion...
Renae's kids LOVED playing with Brian in the jungle gym...I couldnt resist getting a picture...sooo cute!

My second favorite was Brian teaching all the little boys cousins how to play football...it was hilarious to watch

Sarah, my niece was such a good "older sister" and loved hauling Crystal around.

Wow! Crystal AND Rachael are so much bigger than I remember. Tell Rachael she is beautiful! You two look so much alike.

How exciting that you got to go back and visit all your family. Is Gracie a niece? Were all those kids in the last pictures, neices and nephews, or cousins??? Your family seems much bigger than I remember.

I also love that picture with Crystal touching heads with the horse. You can tell she likes horses well enough.
