Boise Photos

Downtown Boise

Too bad we didn't bring a change of clothes-you can run through it!

The Discovery Center, a hands out science museum

Fascinated by wheels and anything that spins


And fascinated by balls, especially when they hover in mid air


Um, Kenson as a set of quads

Julia Davis Park

Paddle boating, or as Kenson calls it, a bicycle boat

Zoo Boise

More large animals than the last zoo, but not a lot else

Hiking trails in the Boise foothills

Seriously the best vacation activity ever. Check out the state/local parks for hiking trails and off you go! Really cheap; usually you just need a park permit. In this case, not even that. We've done hiking on almost every vacation and hope we can keep up that tradition.

Uncle Dan's apartment

More fascination with things that have wheels

Drum Central

A way late jam session where community members come and play drums. We joined them for a bit. Kenson and even my rhythym challenged husband had a great time keeping the beat with the real drummers .


One sleepy boy-we're still recovering

It looks like you had a lot of fun. We try to keep spare clothes in the car during the summer "just in case."

What a very fun trip!!! We ran into the exact same scenario over the weekend with my little nephew....a surprise sprinkler with no extra clothes! This may be bad, but he wanted to go so badly that we just let him jump in his clothes. We had a blanket in the car, so we just wrapped him up in it and put him in his carseat....LOL. Did Kenson enjoy the hiking or did he get tired?

Katy,
Kenson did really well on most of the hike. He was tired and wanted to be carried for maybe the last 1/3 mile. There were lots of people walking and biking and many of them brought dogs so he was content just watching them. Plus, in the flat spots, he could run. (Usually he would start to run after a runner would go past us...really cute.) As far as the water goes, the fountain was early on in our day. If it had been later, I would have had no problem just going in as is.
