Boise!

So Thursday we headed off to Boise and though it may seem small to some it was a big deal to us! We got up early and started out day. Our children are not morning people! Pictures below!


Trenton's ever forced smile and squinty sleepy eyes!


Joe did not even want to talk about how early it was


The over excited parents who have not had a vacation in too long!

The tigers at the zoo were very playful and the best thing there by far. We decided that we were way too spoiled living in San Diego and that is the only zoo for us!



A rare species of tortoise called at Joton. :-)


Rex and Joe in the prairie dog hole



The boys got spoiled with brand new build a bears. Trenton got a dark brown bear to go with his light brown bear at home, naming his new one Mocha Hollywood.......the other bears name is Kozmo Hollywood. I just don't ask anymore!

Joe was excited to see that Build a Bear had a bright orange cat like we have at home and had to have it. He properly named his Marmalade after our kitten. He was very excited with the whole process of making his new toy!

And as we were meandering around Boise getting lost, and just enjoying the day, Trenton excitedly spotted a restaurant named after his fave grandpa, yelling and screaming as we passed Papa Joe's ! (the boys have always called my dad papa Joe and thought this was soo funny!)

Our day was great and we bought tons of goodies and came home exhausted. It was fantastic! OH and our new little Escort wagon got FANTASTIC gas mileage there and back! Averaging about 43 miles per gallon! GO WAGON GO!
