Sun valley!

SO for the fourth, Jeff and I decided to take advantage of his weekend off and head up to Sun Valley Idaho with the Jones' for the family reunion. We left saturday at 11 with jeff's gorgeous cousin Kate and finally got up there around 530. Half way there, Jeff and I realized that we were going to be homeless because his parents weren't arriving until monday night! thankfully the lovells allowed us to crash with them. aaaamazing family. Saturday night we participated in the Jones cousin ritual of game night I learned to play speed scrabble which was so fun!! Sunday was the fourth and because we went without the G.A. (craig christensen) we were about to ditch out after sacrament to watch the cute haley idaho parade. once again that night more games with the cousins... this time speed scrabble AND card games. We learned to play euchre (pronounced yoo-ker)... frustrating at first but then SO fun... thank you parker jones :) monday we just hung out all day. played tennis in the morning. went to the pool to do the WHIRLPOOL (jones family initiation for me) where everyone walks in a circle quickly to make the water like a whirlpool... all while the little cousins are jumping all over ben and jeff. we also hit up the candy store... a must do at sunvalley and got some yummy strawberry icecream :) that evening jeff and i went to a cute chinese restaurant with his parents. Tuesday we played tennis again (i watched of course... silly back) went to a yummy diner for breakfast then said good bye and headed back to provo with danny. over all an AMAZING weekend. Highlights definitely were...
