Our Snowshoeing Adventure up Coldwater Canyon...

Just about to start.

This was a cool cave Blake spotted that we decided to hike up the ledge to.

Another shot of our cool cave.

Cutie!!!

Popo got ANOTHER haircut...I know...but he watched Daddy get one and was willing.

Before...

Getting started with the dum dums.

Ta Da! I wish he could hold still so the pictures weren't blurry.

Handsome boys with their handsome haircuts :)

Our Man Trent
Although his birthday has come and went
We have a tribute to our hero Trent

This year has been busy for this Idaho lad
Whose usually called Dr. or Dad

His activities include tour guide and family physician
Though as our photographer we may need a magician

He's also been serving as gospel doctrine teacher
One of many talents for this noble creature

We hate to brag or set a precedence
But he's also been acting as Head Resident

In  five months from now another adventure awaits
As he moves his family closer to heavens gate

For we all know that Heaven is  where family resides
And to top it all off, his friend Fred he can ride.

So on to Montana where we hope it's not much colder
For we all want to visit and help Trent grow OLDER!

Sorry it's late but love to you daily!

Gorgeous Whitney Brin!

Looking Lovely, even when she's "open mouthed passed out" 

Our sweet adorable Whitney Brin
Who's clever mind is far from Dim

We past her Birthday, what a Pitty
Sorry we are late, but here is her Ditty...

There once was a girl named Waddle
She's an expert with a raft and a Paddle

She has a heart of Gold
And loves the outdoors, even when it is Cold

Give her a puzzle, she'll make you look Slow
Hoping to have kids, like her cute nephew Po

With some country boots on, she'll dance all Night
But Sunday is spent, serving with all her Might

The cabin is her favorite Place
She also enjoys a challenging Race

She married her best friend, whom we all Adore
These two together are far from a Bore

Quite the hilarious couple, Whit and Ty
They can get us laughing till we Cry

If help is needed she's always There
Her sacrifice for others is truly quite Rare

A more loyal friend, you will not Find
She is humble, smart, loving, and Kind

Can't express enough, how much we love our Whit
Here's her B-day poem, it reads a perfect Fit

Happy Birthday Whit!!

News Years resolution

Dear Family,  I'm really going to do it this year!  I am going to put together a cookbook.  Yours Mine and Ours is going to be compiled, edited and printed.  So start saving your favorite and best concocted recipes and send them to me.  We go to print next November so we can give some away as Christmas gifts.  So let's start cooking gals and guys. 

Our "truck"

Tyler thinks it will be "FUN" to finish the basement (and add value to the house). So here we go.....

Sunny Play Day

The boys really needed some play time outside. Here they are tearing down what was left of the snow fort.

Ski Trip

Do you like our new furniture arrangement? Great and exhausting adventures getting in. So worth it!

On our resting day, Ben added miles to the trip by climbing the ridge and beyond! Cowabunga! 

Mom is not only a speedy walker, she is also a super speedy skier. We made it out in record time. 

Ben carried his pack all the way in and all the way out! Isn't that what the sled is for? Ben is TOO strong!

Much too warm for a coat. Better used for a butt tent! Ha Ha. 

Gorgeous up at the cabin in every season. 

Natures Beauties!

The end of a great trip!

All smiles on her 26th birthday!

Preparing to launch the machine to the landing platform. 

We basically had to rebuild the fuel line to get this machine to make the trip.
