lava hot springs, idaho.

on thursday night, jon and i decided to get a group together to go to lava hot springs. he's been going there since he was young and knew that was one thing he wanted to fit into our trip. it was such short notice but katie and sam found people to watch their kids and kim got work off! we drove up saturday morning and stayed until sunday. it was a blast!
we stayed at the Lava Hot Springs Inn and they give you tiny towels to use. it used to be a hospital. the inn is really old fashioned, but that only adds to the experience. gary and mei and katie and sam each got their own rooms. there were about two rooms to every bathroom! so interesting. there wasn't enough room for the rest of us, so we stayed in an apartment-type thing across the street with three queen beds in one room and our own bathroom. it was such a fun slumber party! 
(HAIR!)
the dining experience up there could have been a lot better. our party of 9 overwhelmed every restaurant we went into! it makes for some good stories though. we all had a great time, the group we went with was so fun! kim wrote about it here!
katie and sam drove us up in their family car. the drive up included hot topics like the election, government aid, and mormons/anti-mormons. the drive back was a little bit more laid back with some PITCH PERFECT! if you haven't seen it, i feel bad for you. but when you see it, call me so we can quote it together.
