After the races, we showed everyone our humble abode and then went back and had lunch.

| Our little cabin |
We visited and snacked for a while before we headed back to the big campsite.

| Landon and Sloane were best buds the whole trip! She loves him!! |
After lunch, our little family went fishing on the river. We walked down stream from where people were playing in the water and walked back towards the camp. Christian was the only one to hook one on our little trip. Christian, Jabin, Jason and Cassie, and the boys decided to drive down the road to fish some more, but I stayed back and hung out.

For dinner that night, we had delicious café rio and then everyone brought out desserts to share. My mom, Megan, Cassie and I all worked together to build a giant candy mix. We figured there was probably about $100 worth of candy in the bowl and probably weighed 10 pounds!
After dinner, we had a talent show and members from each family were supposed to share talents. A few of us sung a birthday song in dutch (which is the language my grandma spoke). There was more singing, dancing, and other various talents shared. My favorite was hearing my aunt Roberta tell stories about my grandma. I love hearing about my grandparents because I never got to meet my grandpa and my grandma passed away when I was really little. I can't wait for the day that I get to see them!

After the talent show was over, we said many goodbyes to people that were staying at Air b&b's in the nearest town and wouldn't be coming back for breakfast in the morning.
Saturday morning, we had breakfast and then loaded up and headed out. We decided to take two days going home and stayed the night in Idaho Falls. We went a different way to Idaho Falls than when we came and caravanned with grandpa and grandma (who had Travis with them) and Jabin and Megan.
We made a pit stop at Crators of the Moon National Park and used the bathroom and looked at the lava rocks.

| By the crators...that you can't see... |
Once we got to Idaho Falls, we checked into our hotel and then grabbed dinner at Outback with grandpa and grandma Foulger. We then went and walked around the Idaho Falls temple and then grabbed some frozen custard. The boys really wanted to swim, so we took them back and let them swim for a bit before grandpa came and picked up Travis so he could stay the night with them.
In the morning, we headed out and stopped in West Yellowstone to use the bathroom. There, Travis got in with us and Landon rode the rest of the way home with grandpa and grandma!
It was truely a wonderful trip and Im so happy that we got to go! In two years it will be in Idaho agin and we are already looking forward to it!
