A few weekends ago Chad and I had the opportunity to get away for a few days and what a sweet time it was! I “surprised” him (it started as a surprise plan but he found out about it before we left) with a trip to Boise to watch a BSU football game on the Boise State “smurf turf”. We flew out early on a Friday and came home on a Monday. We really love the Boise area and it was fun to revisit some special places from our dating era. What an experience we had at the game! We loved walking around and taking in all the tailgating parties, these are some very loyal BSU fans! The children had a blast at their respective homes for the weekend. Mitchell and JD enjoyed some time at the E’s, the middle three had a blast at the Beld’s for a couple nights, then sweet Maddie girl took care of them all here at home for the last night. What a treasure trove of dear friends we have! It was a very special and much needed time away together. It was so good just to relax, refresh and regroup alone as a couple as we start this new season of family life without Papa and Gigi. Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
