Lliljenquist Reunion

This summer we also went to Idaho for Matt's family reunion.  We went to this little place called Swan Valley just north of Idaho Falls.  It was really pretty and ran along the Snake River.  It was at this large farm/ranch house where there was tons of activities for everyone to do.  There was ping pong, pool, zip line for the kids, built in slip in slide for the kids, horse shoes, big slides, volleyball court, fire pit, and of course the favorite- a 9 hole golf course.  It was a lot of fun to meet the rest of Matt's family.  

 We found these pretty falls along the river one day when we were going for a drive.

 This is where we stayed.  Matt's immediate family decided not to be campers and we stayed at this little hotel above a bar.  And it was definitely a bar...loud music would suddenly turn on at 12 a.m. 

 Matt's family getting square ice cream at the little ice cream shop.  This is Matt's mom and dad, his sister Randi/kids and his sister Tammy with her husband and kids (I had actually never met them before). 

 Daddy and Carter playing horse shoes. 

 The last day was rainy and chilly.  We LOVED it.  Made it harder to face the reality of going back to Phoenix.

 This little stinker WILL NOT sleep when there is something on.  Taking naps at this reunion was a nightmare and we typically ended up driving around.  Well, the last day she finally passed out in our arms.  It was such a rare moment I ended up taking like 10 pictures of it! LOL. 

 Carter in her cute little hat my mom and I made her. 

Matt going down the large slide...scary.  I chickened out and only went down the little one (barely-I almost chickened out of that one).
