An Idaho Falls family is celebrating after winning $250,000.

Martine Nelson is the fourth out of six winners in the Idaho Millions scratch games.

Nelson said she is a frequent lotto player at the Speedi Mart off Anderson Road in Idaho Falls.

"I thought we would win some but nothing like this,” Nelson said.

The family said they will use the money to finish paying off their house.

Nelson is the second largest Idaho lottery winner from Idaho Falls.

The Speedi Mart that sold the winning ticket also received a bonus $20,000.
