Going to Boise...Never mind, Idaho Falls











We tried to go to Boise on Friday after Christmas to be with some of Johns family and have a Christmas get together. The rodes were so icey and after two hours in the car and finding out that the rodes were closed we had to turn around. Brilynn and Maycie were devestated and I felt like I had spent hours packing for nothing. It was a huge disappointment for all of us. John's sister and her family were going to Idaho Falls the following Monday to visit his other sister so we decided to go as well. Although it was a very quick trip, the girls enjoyed being able to play with their cousins and loved opening their gifts from their Grandparents.

Hey Amanda, gosh it's been a awhile. Holy cow, four girls! How are twins? they are so adorable. How old is your oldest? I can't remember if I had Taya or not when I saw you last! No, we don't live in Idaho anymore we were only there a little over a year. We have been back in Logan for about 6 years now. I'm so glad you found me. I found Bri's blog awhile ago from Tasha's off of my little brothers. It's so fun to find old friends. Where are you living these days? I'm excited to keep in touch. I was telling Bri it would be so fun to get together sometime. Do you talk to her often still?

Yeah, we should really get together sometime. I go to Layton quite often to hit Target and Tai Pan. Next time I'm out that way we'll have to hook up, or if you ever come up this way, you'll have to let me know. Maybe we could even meet in the middle somewhere. The girls would probably love to play. That would be so fun to see Bri this summer. I haven't seen her since Highschool. I keep in contact with Kristen. Now that she has moved back to Vernal I usually see her every time I'm out there. I talk to Jamie Murray every once in awhile. Cynthia and my Aunt Lisa are best friends so Jamie comes to alot of our family baby showers or weddings with her mom. Amy Richardson just found my blog the other day, and my cousin Autumn just moved back to Vernal so her and Kristen keep me updated on a few people but I really haven't keep up with a lot of old friends. It's been really fun to finds some of them through this. Here's my email address if you want to send me your info. So you don't have to post it on a comment. justin_ash@msn.com I would love to catch up some time :)

We went up to Idaho Falls as well! The trip there took six hours and the trip home took seven! I'm not sure if it was worth it. I can imagine how upsetting that would be to have packed up the car and two hours of driving and then to go back home!
Your holidays look liket they were a lot of fun!

I didn't even know that you were traveling on those crazy roads. It was no fun. Well if you ever get stuck along the way. We know plenty of places you could stay in Pocatello!! That's funny you saw Gray!!! I just couldn't resist. We'll have to get together again sometime!!!
