Idaho

Oli, my brother Trevor, and I went to visit my grandparents in Malad and my sisy in Idaho Falls. It was a great time. We went "sleigh riding" on the farm with my grandparents, which is always a treat. We also got to see Jamie and John and their cutest little fam. Calvin, the newest addition to their fam, is the cutest chunker ever! He is such a good baby and was super fun to spend some time with him. Jack, Oli's other cousin, is always a joy and keeps you on your toes. We only wish they lived closer!
We love Idaho, but especially love the people who are there and the good memories we make. Thanks for the good times!
