Cayden's Trip to Utah & Idaho!

August 3-7, 2011
Cayden flew out of Phoenix with Papa Bear and cousin Taylor for a 4 night/5 day all expense paid trip to Utah and Idaho courtesy of Papa Bear! I sent Cayden and Taylor each with a disposable camera and told them to not come home without using up every picture on their camera! LOL! They both did an awesome job of taking pictures of their trip! Thank you Papa Bear for treating Cayden to such a fun time. He made memories that will last a lifetime.
Before Papa Bear flew out with Cayden and Taylor to Utah he took us out to eat at Firehouse Subs! Don't you love Papa, Lexie and Keira's hats?!

Cousin Taylor and Carson looking good in their fireman hats!

The first night they staid in Logan, Utah! They went on the Utah State College Campus where Papa Bear graduated from and had them some famous Aggie ice cream!

Preston High School in Preston, Idaho! Preston High was one of the main filming locations in the movie Napoleon Dynamite. My Grandma Goodsell was one of the first graduating class from this high school!

Cousin Jayden and Cayden! Jayden came down to Grace, Idaho from Idaho Falls to hang out with Cayden and Taylor while they were visiting!

Sightseeing beautiful southern Idaho!

Papa Bear took the boys to Chesterfield, Idaho! The Chesterfield Town site is an old rural village frozen in the time period before 1920. It is located between Lava Hot Springs and Soda Springs, Idaho and along the Oregon Trail. This is the Moses Muir House.

The Chesterfield Meetinghouse! This place is now a museum.

Inside the Meetinghouse!


Soda Springs, Idaho has the only captive geyser in the world! This geyser reaches 100 feet in height!

Cayden and Jayden playing by the geyser and getting wet!

Cayden and cousin David! Cayden loves to play with all his little cousins.

It was the Caribou County Fair and Rodeo in Grace, Idaho where my family lives and that is where Cayden, Taylor and Papa Bear stayed for three nights. Cayden got to go to the parade, rodeo and the demolition derby! He of course got to ride lots of carnival rides. This was Cayden's favorite ride.


This was another favorite ride of Cayden, Jayden and Taylor! This is the ride that Taylor puked all over in after eating too much fair food! LOL!

Aunt Brenda and Uncle Dave's dog named Rose Bud!
