Grandma Julia's 50th!

We headed off to Sun Valley for the weekend to celebrate Grandma Julia's 50th Birthday Party. Papa rented out 2 condo's for the weekend and we piled in all of Blake's immediate family which included all 22 of us. It was my first time to Sun Valley and we had a blast! Everybody was out biking, swimming, dining....it was so fun.

We spent a lot of time together with everyone, which usually doesn't happen, but was so fun. We went biking with everyone a couple of times thanks to papa renting everyone bikes. We all went swimming and hot tubing in the gigantic hot tub; Blake was in heaven. Blake will not swim in the pools because they are too cold. The hot tub was pretty much the size of a pool and he was in heaven. He was the last one out of the hot tub and he almost got left behind. All of the cousins ran around together and enjoyed their time. Thanks Papa and Grandma Julia and happy 50th!

We got some news while we were there...Von (Blake's little brother) and Desiree are getting married. Our new sister-in-law to be.

Nothing like playing Scum with the Hansen's

Of course, we can't forget any organized family pictures while we are all together. We had to do family pictures not only on Saturday, but also on Sunday when we were all in different outfits. This is a cute one of the two loves of my life.

It sounds like you have had a fun week! Your trips (and the pictures) made me miss Idaho. Congrats on 5 years of marriage!

I love playing scum- it's soo addicting you start playing at like 6 and the next thing you know it's midnight. I love it
