Jared's younger brother Jeff had made a deal with Jared. Jeff would come down to San Diego for a week to help Jared get some new accounts for our business if Jared would go up to Idaho for a week and help him get some business accounts for his carpet cleaning business. Originally Jared was going to go up to Idaho by himself at the beginning of June, but I begged him to wait until Julia got out of school so that we could go too. Now, normally when we go up to Idaho it is winter and all we can see for miles is snow, snow and more snow. Now don't get me wrong, the snow if fun for about a day, but when his whole family wants to get together for an extended amount of time, it gets hard to accommodate everyone indoors. We haven't really taken the kids up to Idaho during the summer because it usually is impossible with Jared's crazy summer work schedule. Well, I'm so glad that we did because Idaho was absolutely beautiful! There had been a lot of rain and it made everything sooo green. We got to do so many fun outdoor activities that we don't normally get to do, like go to the lake, riding horses, go to a water park, camping and marshmallow roasts, jumping on the trampoline and just running around outside. We had such a wonderful trip visiting with everyone and just hanging out with the family. Even though we weren't really planning on a family reunion this year, it kinda turned out to be one because all of Jared's siblings got together for a number of days while were there. We even got to hang out with my little sister Lorraine who is going to BYU Idaho while we were there. I couldn't have asked for a better trip.
