More Vacation

We continued our vacation this week by driving up to Rexburg and seeing my family. Haley and Matt are moving to Texas in a week, so this was our last chance to see them for a while. Luckily, we were able to spend some time with Krystalee too since she is living with my parents. Here are some highlights.

First of all, we’ll mention Evelyn’s behavior. She has sort of been a grump this week. I think that everyone holding her all the time is starting to take its toll as she misses out on her normal nap times. That said, it would be unfair to her to say that she was always fussy. It’s just been a little more than normal. She continues to delight everyone with her smiles and gurgles. Also she fell asleep in Courtney’s arms today, which was Courtney’s ultimate desire for the week.

Rachel, Haley, Allison, and Krystalee (Courtney was in Boise playing tennis) had a girl’s day where they worked out with Richard Simmons videos and went shopping in Idaho Falls. Also, Rachel broke her toe by walking into a parked car, so she’ll be wearing sandals for a while until her toe gets better. Meanwhile, Griffin and I went to the collage and played racquetball and rolled kayaks in the pool.

Broken Toe. Ouch!

On Saturday, we rented canoes from the collage and did a section of the Snake River. It was Eva’s first river trip, but many more are sure to follow. Also, she looks great in a life-jacket! After the river, we made Dutch-oven pork chops, beans, biscuits, and peach cobbler. It was a good way to end a good day.
