The Weaver Family Vacation.......Part two

















Well, we're a little behind in updating our blog for the second half of our family vacation, which is due in part to the exciting Olympics. We also had a visit from Mat's aunt Sue and cousin Kerry last weekend, who drove from Portland for a short visit. We had fun touring around Boise, and visiting the Birds of Prey Center.

Now on to the Second half of our vacation..........

After leaving the Small Farm we headed down to Bozeman. This was one of the longer legs of our trip, and we had to make a few stops along the way to let the boys out of their car seats. Our drive was pretty uneventful, and we arrived in Bozeman to a warm welcome from Mat's dad, his wife Rachael, and Grandmother Martha. The next few days were pretty relaxing. We spent lots of time visiting, and watching the boys cruise around the house. We were very impressed with the organic garden Richard and Rachael have been working on all summer. We also checked out the new library, and went on a fun hike up to the Trout Lakes. After a great breakfast in the beautiful Gallatin Canyon, we headed home. We decided last minute to drive through both Yellowstone and Teton National Parks. We arrived in Boise late and exhausted, but excited about our fun week.

Since our vacation, Kessler has learned to crawl. Both boys have also cut two teeth. I continue to be busy with the renovation of the Idaho State Capitol, and Mat has been traveling some to Eastern Idaho to work with local communities on water rights.
