What we've been up too

Can I just say that I live in the most beautiful place in the whole world! This past week we have really enjoyed our surrounding and each other....and we only had to drive 20 minutes from our house.
Our first adventure was up to Joes Valley one day after Kade got home from school. We loaded up our sled and our snow clothes and headed out for a hike up to the coolest waterfall ever.


On our way the boys thoroughly enjoyed the snow. They rolled in it, the threw it, they ate it....they LOVED it.

While on our hike we came upon this fun little hole in the rock, so the boys had to pose with their heads sticking out.



Finally the end result of our hike. Amazing isn't it.


Our next adventure was out to the desert to check the cows. This adventure was definitely exciting because we got stuck! This is something that we are very used to in our family. Kyle seems to get us in a pickle quite a bit. This time, we had to have Kyle's cousin Kash come and pull us out.

It took Kash about a hour and a half to get to us. Kade was determined to dig us out while we waited for Kash.





As you can kind of see, the back tires are not touching the ground at all. Even though we only saw 3 cows and spent most of the day stuck, we had a good time and made a fun memory with our boys.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year! Can you believe that it is 2012? Weird! We had a great time ringing in the new year by going sledding around Buckhorn Reservoir. The kids had a blast getting pulled around and dumped off the sled.

We had a nice camp fire that Kade help make


After a few hours of sledding, we all headed over to Groggs for dinner.

And then off to the bowling alley

Superman is quite the little bowler!

The next day Kyle took us all ice fishing up to Willow Lake. We ended up getting skunked, but it was a nice ride and it made for some cute pictures of my boys!

I can't wait to see what 2012 brings!
