Idaho Falls

We started our vacation today! We loaded all the coolers and bags this morning and right after church we quickly came home, changed, grabbed some food and hit the road. It's only about a 3-hour drive to Idaho Falls, and we rolled into town about 8:45.

After checking in we made soup in our room and then headed for the pool. My sweetie took some pics at the pool, but they are stuck in the camera so these cute ones from our room will have to do for today. We swam for about an hour and then got the kids to bed.

I was a little annoyed to be halfway down the hall from their room, but Crafty is old enough to take care of things. Did I tell you we left all the older kids home so they could do schoolwork? It's so weird to have them missing. I love having all my children around me and with only 5 along the van seems pretty empty. Even the extra space to spread out is just not worth it.

We have big plans for tomorrow. My sweetie wants us all up early so we can get on the road for Yellowstone. I convinced him that we swam until after 11:00 so if we can be on the road by 8:00 it will be a minor miracle.

I will let you know.
I do believe in miracles. :)
