Boise/Homedale Idaho

Before we left for Minnesota, we headed up to Idaho to visit Brandi (Cody's sister) and her family and some of Cody's friends in Homedale. We stayed at Brandi's new house and had a blast spending time with Brandi, her husband Kyle, and their kids Chandler and Emma. As part of the festivities we took the kids fishing and also on a bike ride. Unfortunately, we forgot to take pictures while we were there, but we do have a few of the bike ride that we took Chandler and Emma on.


 Here we are on the river parkway. Emma's bike is too big for her so she needed some help getting started, but she did great once she got going. 


 At the end of our bike ride was a bmx bike track and everyone had a turn going down the big hill. 

We also spend a few days in Homedale, Idaho where Cody attended his senior year of high school. We attended church there and it was fun to meet people that Cody has told me about. We were also able to spend time with Cody's friend Chris and his family. We had Sunday dinner at his house and I was so impressed when almost everything on the table came from their garden. We had a roast that came from one of their cows, we had potatoes, green peppers, corn, and cucumbers that were straight from the garden! On Tuesday we went fishing with Chris and his wife Brittany and it was great to get to catch up with them and also to meet their baby, Blaize. While in Homedale I also got to meet Cody's friend Amber and her family, I have heard wonderful things about them so it was nice to finally meet them. We had a great time playing the game Scum with Amber, her husband Ross, Chris, and Brittany. We like it so much that we taught the game to my family when we got back! Amber was also kind enough to cut Cody and my hair while we were in Idaho. We packed everything we could into this fun trip and enjoyed every moment of it.
