"Are we at Idaho yet?"

On Wednesday, we drove to Idaho Falls. We spent a lot of time with my sister, Holly, and her 3 boys. My brother, Bryan, lives in Rigby, and had a birthday we helped to celebrate. Then, my other brother, Ben, came up from Ogden on Friday night, and we spent time with him. The only one missing was Nat. But, we sorely missed her, and thought about her a ton. I don't know why I didn't take many pictures of us all together. I don't have any of Bryan and his wife, and didn't get one of Ben's beautiful wife, and their baby, Josh. Who, by the way, is quite the cutie pie. We got all the kids together on Sunday morning, and went to Walmart and got a grandkids photo. Trying to get 8 kids to sit still was a challenge, but we think it turned out great. I can't wait until we see it!!

Dancing and singing is always the norm at Hamblin get togethers. Ben played the guitar, and the kids danced and sang along.


Holly's boys are blonde, and Ben's have brown hair. But, all of the grandkids have blue eyes. The cousins were lined up here, waiting to play with the fire truck. I think that Tyler organized it, and it eliminated a lot of fighting!

Tyler, Holly's oldest, and the oldest grandson, is in Kindergarten this year. He has learned to read, and entertained everyone with this newfound skill. One of the favorite books was "The Ants Go Marching." He loves to make the cousins laugh. So cute!


Everyone took turns holding the new baby. Although, I don't know if he liked it so much!

Taylee and Ben's 2nd boy, Jakey. (Not named after my husband) He is the one that looks most like the Hamblin side.
