Jackpot!!

A new favorite thing for the boys to do is go shed hunting in the mountains. They came across this skull the other day and I think Mason had died and gone to heaven!! It is the first thing he shows to everyone when they come over!! Is he his father's son or what?!?!

Meet Rosie.....

Yes.... I actually held her. I even got a sticker to show for it!! It really wasn't that bad!! Here is Wendy holding her. She was even more brave than me!! :)

And the bravest of us all was Mason.... I think he would want one as a pet if his Dad could deal with it.

The Butterfly Pavilion

I had to take a picture of this sign.... so funny!! And very true!! :)
This is so incredibly wrong that I can't even speak about it!!

Mason was able to hold this gorgeous one here: I think this one wanted out.... gorgeous though, huh?

These white ones were absolutely paper thin!! So gorgeous!!

Here's Landon cheesing it up for me as usual!!

This gave me nightmares.... so gross!!
And the giant preying mantis.... of course!!

We had never been here beofre so we ended up bringing our best friends here during their stay. It was so much fun!!

Happy Turkey Day!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! We miss our family and friends in California and hope you have a wonderful holiday!!! GOBBLE TIL YOU WOBBLE!!!

I promise to be back with lots of new posts. We have some of our best friends out here for the week and we have been busy showing them some of the sights. And trying to get them to move out here too!! :) I have some pretty fun posts coming up and hope to get some free time to post them all!! Have a great holiday until then!! And yes..... scrap room is DONE!! I am utterly shocked out how much stuff I had.... and how organized it is now!! I am in heaven!! Can't wait to start creating!!! Will post some pics soon!!

Their first official snow day!

Our front yard:
Our back yard... I am not sure if I even know where it is:

The snow drift on our front porch:

The kids sledding in the meadow out back: Even Landy had a great time (he usually freezes within 5 minutes...but not today!):

And of course, Mom (me), was snowed in at work and had to spend the night away from my boys (WAH!!!). Probably the start of my bronchitis too!!
