Family Fun Time...

Last Wednesday Thomas and I went to the Caldwell Night Rodeo with my family. Great rodeo! The clown didn't show up until halfway through because he fell asleep before the show. He made up for it though!





On Thursday we went to Couer d'alene. We stopped at Subway for breakfast. While we were there Thomas asked the woman helping us to toast his sandwich. This was their interaction:
Subway: Our toaster is broken.
Thomas (very uncharacteristicly passionate): WHAT?!? That's why I got the sandwich.
Subway (as she pointed to a sign): There's a sign.
Thomas just looked like he had no idea what to do. I've never ever seen him react like that. Totally made my day!
I thought we were going to die before we got to our destination. We almost got in two accidents within an hour of each other. The first time the woman driving ahead of us thought it would be a great idea to drive on the opposite side of the road for awhile before she turned left. The only problem was that there were three cars coming toward her! Later someone tried to pass a car while we were driving toward them. Luckily we survived! During our drive we also noticed that there is a ridiculous amount of wheat growing in Northern Idaho. The fields looked endless!




When we got to Couer d'alene we went straight to Silverwood and met Thomas' family. It was a fun rest of the day except that the rollercoasters shook way too much!
These were some of the conversations during our two days at Silverwood.
Background: I LOVE chocolate ice cream and salsa...not together, but separately!
Thomas: I don't want chocolate ice cream. I want sherbert.
Sam: Me too!
Thomas: Where did Sam go? Where is my wife.




Later that night...
Sam: I just want chips, not salsa.
Thomas (again, very uncharacteristicly passionate): I don't even know who you are anymore. You don't want chocolate ice cream. You don't want salsa. Where is my wife?!?
The next day...
Sam: These pants are legit!
Nephew: What's little gyms?
Later...
Sam: I'm writing down funny quotes from this trip.
Thomas: Who are you texting?
Sam: I told you I'm writing down funny quotes.
Thomas: Oooooooooooooh. I didn't listen.
Our trip was not exactly the most relaxing for me. While Thomas and I were on the ferris wheel he started making fun of me because I was semi-freaking out. 
Sam: Theme park, family vacation, first time with your family, and I'm sick? You're just asking for a meltdown!
He just laughed at me and gave me a hug and thanked me for coming. Ha!

On Saturday we explored Couer d'alene! The lake was beautiful! There were tons of awesome shops around town too!




We kept trying to get a good picture but it didn't work, so we gave up.

 On Sunday we came home and Monday night we said goodbye to Thomas' sister and her family. They were here for the summer but had to go home eventually! We played a sweet awesome game with zing shots. I want to buy some! They are just sling shots but are designed very well!

On Tuesday night we went to the fair and saw Foreigner in concert! It was fantastic!

I want this belt, but it was too expensive!


So excited for Foreigner!
