Another great weekend!

Last night we got back from a very fun trip to Idaho Falls. We stayed with Amy's in-laws along with Amy & Rob, Rob's 2 sisters, and one of his brothers (plus 10 of their 15 grandkids). We had a very good time. We drove up Thursday night after work and Friday we played some games, did some shopping, and played with the Wii Fit and Wii Sports. I had never played the Wii Fit before but it was really fun. They have this board thing you stand on and there are aerobic exercises you can do and a bunch of things to test your balance. You can even weigh yourself and find your BMI to see if you're overweight or whatever. The funniest though was watching Jeremy on the hoolahoop thing. You have to circle your hips like you're doing the hoolahoop and then people throw hoolahoops to you that you have to catch. Anyway, his hips were goin' crazy and his arms were pumping to help him. We were all cracking up and I had tears streaming down my face. Unfortunately I didn't get the camera until after I finished, so I don't have any pictures of him, but here's one of Rob doing the hoolahoop:
And Jeremy doing a Yoga pose: haha! He actually has very good balance. At first you just stand on the thing and it tells you how good your center of balance is. It asked him if he had trouble walking without tripping because his center of balance was bad. Haha! But then on all the exercises (ski slope, ski jump, hitting soccer balls with your head, etc.) he did really well. So who knows.

Then on Saturday we watched Conference and in between the sessions all the girls went out to lunch (Rob's mom, 2 sisters, sister-in-law, Amy, and me). We went to this cute little bakery in celebration of Amy's coming baby. She's due with #4 in less than 3 weeks! They had this amazing Raspberry Cream Pie that we shared. Wow, it was incredible. Then we played some more games that night and had a fun time.

Sunday, we again watched Conference. All the sessions were so good! I might need to reread a few because there were a lot of distractions, but I was happy with how much we were able to get out of it even though there were 10 kids. During the Sunday morning session Amy had most of the kids playing Conference Bingo, so that kept them watching for that whole session. It was really fun. They had words like "Atonement", "Missionaries", "Baptism", etc. and if someone said one of those words you got to mark it. So we had a good time with that.

Here's little Grant during the Sunday afternoon session wearing Brenna's hat. He's so cute!
And Jeremy and I with Brenna asleep on us.
And Amy, Rob, Seth, and Rob's parents.
It was a great weekend and it was fun to see family! I'm going up to Boise to help Amy with her baby in about a month so that will fun. Life is great! Thanks for reading. :)

You guys are so fun, I'm so glad you came. You'll probably have the best looking kids ever, and with great balance.
