FINALLY!

 Ryan's excited face as we're getting ready to leave Seattle!

After much anticipation we arrived in Idaho Wednesday afternoon.  It was a long 5 + hour trip, but the kids did great.  We met up with Grandma Karen and Grandpa Bill about an hour and half outside Seattle by chance and had lunch with them, then traveled together the rest of the way.

We got checked into our hotel, then headed to Uncle Michael's!  Ryan was SO excited to see him (and Jenn)!  It is adorable how his face lights up when he sees Uncle Michael.  They  have so much fun together!

Uncle Michael and Aunt Jenn got Ryan a pitching machine as a gift for being the ring bearer.  He was thrilled!  I'm sure that machine will get a good workout over the summer. 

Jenn's family was also at the house helping out with wedding stuff, and it was great to see them again.  They are the most wonderful people!  It really isn't hard to figure out why Jenn turned out the way she did.

We all enjoyed some pizza for dinner and each others company.  We all got on the same page of the rest of the weeks activities.  It was a fun evening.  We were exhausted when we got back to the hotel and all slept so good.
