This weekend I got to fly down to Boise to see my baby sister compete in the Miss Idaho pageant. Madi did great and we were all so proud of her!
Madi made it into the top seven and won two awards - one for community service and also the preliminary talent award. She was awesome!
The pageant was two nights and Lucy went with us the first night, but didn't quite make it all the way through!

All the sisters!
It was so great to see my family again and spend some time together! Here's part of the gang at breakfast at the hotel.
Lucy and Iris.
One of my favorite parts of the weekend was meeting my newest nephew Tripton for the first time! He is such a cutie!
Same hairdo as Dad!
Bailey and Trip.
Saturday was so much fun. Some of us went shopping at the outlet mall, then we all met up at the park by the zoo for a birthday/Father's Day picnic. (Quincy, Bailey, Lisa, Lucy, and Grandma all had birthdays this month - Grandma's was on Saturday) Here's Halle and I in our cool shades.

We also got to ride the paddle boats on the lake, which was SO much fun! Here's Jamie, Easton, and Bailey.

To all my family,
It was SO great to see you all! Thanks for everything, Mom and Dad! I love you and can't wait to see you next month!

Seeing the pictures of your family was so fun. It looks like you all had a great time being together. Madi looks gorgeous, and congrats to her on her awards.
I can't believe how much your family has grown. They are all so beautiful and handsome. I guess the memories that I have of them from 15-20 years ago would have changed! I love to see all of the grandkids (minus a few) and imagine how happy your parents must be to have raised such a great group. Congrats to Madi.
Thanks for all the pictures. It looks like such a fun weekend. I am glad you were able to join them. It sounds like Madi did great and she looks beautiful.
Erin that's so fun that you got to go visit your family! looks like you had a great time.
Great pics, Erin! I'm so glad you came- you made my weekend :).
Madi
