Tree Hunting

There hasn't been this much snow Christmas tree hunting before, it certainly made things more adventurous. We came prepared with snow shoes, sleds and cross-country skis, but we really relied on our husbands to find and cut trees this year. The kids had a great time sledding, making snow angels and berrying their heads in the snow.

Snow fun....

A few snow storms hit town last week and dumped a few bits of snow on us. Roads and schools were closed, but that didn't stop us from having fun. Tuesday we got the four-wheeler out and played. Gabe didn't stay out long, but it was long enough for him to rip it up on the four-wheeler. He laughed, smiled and had a great time. Madi loved riding in the sled behind the four-wheeler. Her cheeks were bright red and we still couldn't get her out of the sled or inside, she could have stayed outside for days. Once we did get her out of the sled she made snow angels which is one of her favorite things to do in the winter.

Swimming

We went to Boise over the weekend for the 4a State Semi-Finals between Shelley and Bishop Kelley. Unfortunately Shelley lost, but the kids had a great time swimming in the hotel pool. They swam for almost 2 hours.

A picnic in the park....

Before we took Madi to school, we went to North Bingham County Park to eat lunch. It was a quick trip, but it was nice to be outside enjoying the beautiful Fall weather.
