Boise Weekend Getaway

Tom now drills in Boise once a month and I have been saying I would make the trip down one weekend with him. Once Clayton was born, I had the perfect excuse to tag along, Uncle Dan needed to meet his new little nephew. My favorite thing about Boise, is all the delicious restaurants we get to try. The best part, Daniel knows which ones are top notch. We also toured the State Capital building. What a beautiful building! Last but not least, we stopped for a short visit with my Great Aunt Maddie Sue.....I'm a little mad at myself, I didn't get a picture of Clayton and Daniel together. I guess I will have to wait till Easter, when he's up for a visit. All in all it was a wonderful weekend just getting out of the house.

Idaho State Capital
Everything was solid Marble. 


Looking up into the middle dome. 



A statue of George Washington carved out of wood. 

Can anyone tell me what the pattern is on the floor? 

She's so goofy!

Sitting in the State Legislator room. 


State Senate Room 

Ground level looking up. 

Just love the architectural work 

Haylie loved it too......Have you guessed what the pattern is? Yep that's right its a sun dial. The point at Haylies left shoulder is pointing true south. This lower pattern matches the one upstairs. 

Old Elevator

Great Great Aunt Maddie Sue.
My Grandpa's Sister (on my mom's side)
This was the only picture I could get with Clayton not screaming his head off. He was worn out from all the traveling.
