We're back!!!

OK.... So it has been forever since I have posted. Hopefully I will be able to update a little more frequently and that my pictures will actually post correctly. SO, this is what we have been up to....

We took the boys and their cousin Carson out to Hardware Ranch for a sleigh ride to see the elk. The boys have really liked going and seeing the deer, moose & elk during hunting season so needless to say, when they saw the elk up close and personal they loved it. There apparently was more elk this year than there has been for years. I can't believe how big some of them were.







We took a trip up to my families cabin in Bear Lake with my cousin and his family. We had a great time. We spent the day sledding and snowmobiling. There are some great hills right in front of the cabin and both boys ventured down the hills by themselves.



Boy it is bright out here. I tried to get a picture with the boys but anywhere we tried the would not stop coving their faces. The just kept telling me "I can't see, the snow is to bright."




While we were getting everything ready to go snowmobiling, TJ got a little excited and hit the gas. So now he can officially say his has been snowmobiling by himself. It scared him a little bit but the 2 feet he moved wasn't bad. I don't think he will play around with the snowmobiles anymore.




TJ turned 5 on January 24th. He is so excited to be 5 but keeps telling me next year he will be 6 and then 7, all the way up to 12. The sad thing is before I know it he will be 6 and then 7 and then 12. Times go by way to fast.


TJ had a birthday party at school and was very excited to share his Thomas cake and balloons with all his friends.



We also had a party with all the family to celebrate TJ, Carson, Taylor and Maranda's birthdays.


With all the snow that has been flying around here, my dad had to go and get his skid loader to move all the piles he made with his snow blower. Jayden had a great time with grandpa moving the snow.



Time for hair cuts!!! We had our cousins over one day to play and when I came out into the family room this is what I found. The kids found TJ's tools and thought it would be a great way to cut hair. It is amazing what a plasic saw and plyers can do. I had to remind them all that the only thing they can cut hair with is the plastic tools. Needless to say I found all the scissors I have and hid them.


So there you go. Those are just some of the highlights from the beginning of the year. We are still busy with school and gymnastics and everyday living but I will try to be better at keeping the blog updated.
