The happiest place . . . in Boise

I finished my clerkship on Friday and am now enjoying a two-week break before starting my new job. Chris is also spending some time away from the office this week and next. (But don't worry Gary, he'll be working plenty too.)

We decided to treat Isaac to a "fun day" with mom and dad. We took Lucas to "school" and headed off to the Wahooz amusement park and the Roaring Springs water park. It was an amazing day!

The arcade is much nicer than Chuck E. Cheese. Isaac enjoyed checking out the games,and was especially intrigued (and terrified) of the pirate.

We then played a round of miniature golf. There are two 18-hole courses, both in the shade with nice landscaping and interesting obstacles. Isaac surprisingly was very patient. Chris wasn't. He diligently kept score until he realized I was winning. Then he stopped.

The highlight of the day for Isaac was the bumper boats. He said that Papa Gary needs to get some for McCall.

We then headed over to the waterpark. I was concerned that it wouldn't be much fun since Isaac is too small for the rides (actually, I'm barely tall enough for some of them). But it was a blast! There is a playground in about 12" of water with teeter totters, slides etc. One of the slides was wide enough for the three of us to go down together. My favorite part was the "endless river." You just hop on tubes at any point in the river and float as long as you want. Isaac had his own tube. I wish I had pictures to share of the waterpark, but I checked the camera into a locker.

Lucas can't wait until he can join us next summer.

Chris is in McCall now and I'll head up with the boys on Thursday.

Tata for now.
