Labor Day Weekend

We had a very fun, but very busy Labor Day weekend.  We mad a lot of last minute decision that ended up being really fun.  On Friday night we headed up to Kamas to spend the night at Chill's aunt and uncle's cabin.  We got there kind of late so we just hung out, built a race track, listened to some music and then it was off to bed.  Saturday morning we woke up and headed to Wyoming for some fishing.  We planned to go horseback riding but unfortunately we got there too late to do that.  Carson enjoyed fishing, or should I say throwing rocks in the river.  Bailey also thought it was pretty fun to throw rocks and eat them!  After fishing Doug needed to set up some hunting cameras (we were on the land that they hunt on every every year) so we went on a very bumpy joyride up the mountain.  We grabbed a bit to eat in Evanston and then headed for home.  Carson decided to spend the night at Grandma and Grandpas so Chill and I just had Bailey on Sunday.  Sunday at about 4 Chill and I decided we would pack up and head up to Idaho Falls to see my brother and his cute wife after dinner.  My parents had planned to go up there so we though, why not.  We went over for Sunday dinner at Chill's parents to celebrate Aunt Lynda's birthday.  We ate and then we left from there and headed to Idaho. We thought for sure the kids would sleep all the way there...not so!  Bailey cried much of the way and Carson couldn't get comfortable!  Needless to say we made it to Idaho at about 11:00 pm and it was lights out.  Monday morning the boys got up bright and early to go golfing.  Min and Matt decided to head to Idaho as well so up they came.  After golf it was off to Perkins for some breakfast...this is definitely one of my favorite places!  Bailey needed a nap so we hung out and watched Carson, Min, and Brent play a little pretend Rock Band and then we packed up and hit the Eastern Idaho State Fair in Blackfoot.  Now my sister Nat loves this fair and from first glance I honestly could not understand why.  It looks pretty ghetto.  After we got in walked around and ate some food, I completely understand why.  The animals were awesome and the food was absolutely fabulous. Carson was so excited to ride the rides.  He loved the roller coaster.  He thought it was the best thing ever.  Chill ate a fried twinkie which he said was tasty and Bailey devoured an entire piece of corn on the cob.  (yes she still LOVES food).  My favorite was the scone nuggets.  Way better than the Utah State Fair I must admit.  We were so sad Nat and her family weren't there since this is their thing!  I will definitely be hitting that fair again!  Once again we made the journey home and we were completely exhausted from our busy, but fun weekend of traveling and family time!
