we spent this past weekend in beautiful grand targhee idaho. brett's aunt jeanette and uncle rod were so kind to let us stay at their cabin for the weekend. the first day we spent skiing at the grand targhee resort. brett's little sis hayley, aunt jeanette and i rocked the mountain.... well we thought we did. i hadn't been skiing in about 3 years so i was proud of my skills. it was the best time of our lives...so so fun! brett, uncle rod and zach did some true skiing and conquerded the entire mountain. visibility was not the best but we skied pure powder! i mean i have never skiied in snow like that....EVER! it was beautiful snow! thanks to brittany and brandon we were able to go. they watched little steele back at the cabin so we could have a great day.
the rest of our trip was filled with family fun! snowmobiling, sledding, good food, games and quality family time.
when the sun was out it was very warm. we probably didn't even need our coats but with all the rolling around in the snow it was smart to stay dry.
hal was very helpful as always. now she even feeds steele all by herself. pretty impressive for a 4 yr old!
the back porch had about 3 feet of fluffy snow. we had a blast jumping from the back porch into the powder. look close and check out our faces. we got some better pics on other cameras but this was the best from mine. craziness.
the boys just aren't as cool as the girls....
happy valentine's day
crazy love
{disclaimer: i am not responsible if anyone reads this that is not supposed to...}
we all say hayley is in love but she'll bashfully disagree. she just met the guy 3 weeks ago. we'll have to see what happens. he sent her this beautiful bouquet of flowers all the way up at the cabin because they couldn't be together on v-day. he did his research and found the one flower shop that would deliver all the way up to this rural place. Ahhhh.
hayley then returned the favor and left a day early to surprise him on valentines day. josh and i helped her cut out tons of hearts to decorate his room. {hayley needs to go back to the second grade and learn how to cut out a decent heart. you should see the hearts she cut. seriously hilarious!}
boys bath time- bentley always takes baths with his girl cousins and he finally got to take a boys bath. they had so much fun splashing and going crazy.
this was the result of their fun....
