Fun in Sun Valley

Charles had a conference in Sun Valley, Idaho. We decided that the family would join him -- so we could explore a new area. It was SO beautiful! It was such a fun place! There were many families there too, which made it nice for us. The last conference we stayed at we were in a Hilton Hotel, and they were not quite as family-friendly!

Here are some pictures (in very random order) . . .

Here we are by the Clydesdale horses. They were right next to the bike trail. They were so big and beautiful! I loved them!
The kids had fun just being kids!
We rented some bikes and pullers and went for a long, pretty bike ride. It was so refreshing after being sick for so long! :-)
In the middle of our bike ride we stopped for some dinner at a Hawaiian restaurant. It was really yummy! The ride home was a little more difficult though -- I was SO full! Heave, HO! The hills were a little more painful! Riding a bike with a full gut is not recommended! I am glad I made it!

Waiting to order
Hanging out in Ketchum, Idaho -- just minutes away from Sun Valley. A very pretty town. Very touristy.

Yup, I sure do love this guy!
Just one of the areas around the hotel. It was all like a Swiss village -- so cute!

Ready to roll!

Mmmmmm . . . Hawaiian food. I loved the sign for the bathroom, I should have taken a picture! The sign said, "Take a Leaky."
William enjoyed Daddy's shoulders
We enjoyed listening to the great music played by the awesome orchestra.

There were tons of ponds and creeks flowing through the area, it was so lovely. They had tons of swans, which added to the beauty.

We had a really great time! I am sure we will go there again sometime!
