Snow and misc..

Everyone is asking how much snow we have so I took this picture (the back of our neighbors house)..

Yup those are his lawn chairs on the back of the deck.

Here is the icicle Bill pulled off the front of the house.

Warewolfs beware!

Wednesday was the full moon. At 10:30pm it was so bright out side, it was amazing. So I took my camera and bared the bitterness to get a couple pictures.





Lately I have been playing with the apeture setting and this was a perfect oppertunity to see how well it would do..

Tadaa!!
This really was taken at night.. See the stars??




Then I couldn't feel my fingers or my nose so I decided get out of the -4 degree temprature.

E & J

Ethan had a friend Jeremy come over to play in the snow. Ethan loves the snow and loves playing in it, he would stay out there forever if I let him. I feel bad that I can't really go out and play unless James is asleep. He plays out in the snow by himself just fine, but it makes us feel like he is lonely.


Not on Wednesday!!



After I put James down I went out and helped them build the tube slide and a couch to relax on the other side of the slide.

Saturday Morning

We had all these wonderful plans Saturday; Idaho Falls, errands galore, bowling and hang out time with some friends in rexburg.

Instead we woke up at 4 a.m. to Ethan throwing up everywhere and again every hour for the next 12 hours.




and after a clothes and blanket change...


While wanting to stay in the room with Ethan, incase he didn't make it, and needing to give James a bath I decided to give James a bath in the kitchen sink.

Oh how he loved it. Smiles and splashes the whole time. *this also worked out well since we needed to mop the kitchen floor*

Christmas Morning

We had a great Christmas this year.



Here are pics from Christmas morning.

Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve with the Thomas family this year. Dinner, Dessert (English Trifle, Acting out the story of our Saviour Jesus Christ's Birth (home made costumes:o)) and watching Tangled at Pierre's Playhouse (our awesome theater that only holds 100 people). It was a great night.

Christmas Eve Day

On Christmas Eve we went over to Allen's Hill for some sledding. It was a beautiful day to be outside enjoying where we live and we had such a great time.

Ethan and Bill absolutly love sledding and we would go more often but if you have ever had to hike up that hill while carrying the sleds and children you would understand why it is better to go when someone has a snowmobile to take you back up the hill.

We went with three of the Crow Families (Thanks Chad, Brad, Erika and Darren for bringing your snowmobiles!)
