Once again, the boys didn't want to ride with me and Matt. So our car (out of the 3) became the "needs a break from kids" car, and "I need a nap" car, for any of the adults. It was really easy for me to drive and listen to a pod-cast via one ear bud, while a passenger took a nap. Matt rode the last half the drive with Tyson to help with kids and such. Me and Marcie had a fab time in our kid-free sharing tunes. She has really fun music and I do not. But that wasn't a great surprise, was it?
Our last full day in Boise was spent having some park-time with a great friend and her awesome kids. I've been very fortunate to make a good buddy or two where ever I've lived. But why do we all have to live so far apart? That's frustrating.
We spent the last half of the day with Boise family, swimming and talking and eating and having fun. Seriously, Matt has some cool relatives! And there was cake and ice-cream to celebrate Matt's upcoming 31st birthday, along with an aunt's and a cousin's too.
We woke up bright and early Thursday, July 31, and headed for the Boise airport.
It was a long day full of travel. Once we made it across the country via airplane to Atlanta, we had to drive to our home which is 3.5 hours away. We didn't make it back to coastal GA till like 10 at night our time.
We were ZOMBIES the next few days. However, we couldn't be totally lazy since the boys were starting school on the following monday. PLUS Matt had to pick out a birthday gift! Since the "going shooting" with the boys back in the first part of the Idaho vacation, Matt had guns on his mind. I was like, "whatever, man," so he picked one out and bought it. Apparently getting a new gun for a birthday is really fun? He's very happy bout it, so I guess it is.
And then Monday happened and the boys started school (a post to come) and Matt had to go back to work, and our vacation and our summer officially ended. WOW!
