We had an Erickson Family Reunion the weekend of the 22nd of May.  It was a blast.  Lydia and I went up on Monday before the reunion and stayed through the next week.  It was fun for Lydia to get to know her aunts, uncles, and cousins.  She also met Joseph whom she has never seen before because he just returned from his mission from the Czech-Republic.  All the siblings were able to make it.  It was so much fun to see my sisters,  whom I haven't seen in a while.  I am not sure when I will see them again either.  After the reunion Ben flew up and spent some time with my brothers and family.  He has so much fun with them.  He plays basketball and football and completely wears himself out.   We also were able to see Ben's parents.  They came over for the afternoon on Thursday.  It was fun to see them and for Lydia to recognize them from the webcam chats.

Twin Falls.

 

On your way down the canyon there is a waterfall.  I tried to take a picture from the bottom.  You can barely see it but it was a beautiful that night.

We had a cookout that night at the park.

Lydia and I are here at the table enjoying a fruit salad, pasta salad and hot dogs.

Funny Face

After dinner we went on a little walk to the bridge.

There were some neat waterfalls along the way.

The bridge. You cross this to get into the Twin Falls.  People also jump off this bridge with parachutes.

 I have been horrible at posting, but I have been taking pictures.   As the weather has been warming up so have we.  We have been exploring all the parks.  We went down a little trail that walks under the Twin Falls bridge.  We went to Shoshone Falls and Twin Falls.
