Hunting Trip 2013

Sean got to go on his very first hunting trip in early November!

He spent five days in Idaho with his dad, brother and brother-in-law.

He got his very first buck and came back revved up about his new hobby.

Man time at its finest, folks. ;)

 

Pretty sure I know exactly what Sean will look like in 20 years.



Chilly Park Days

Our recent weather has been cold, cold, cold.

But it has also been really beautiful and sunny which I love!

I try to get the girls outside as much as I can, even in the cold weather.

We spent a little time at Coulon Park recently on one of these chilly days and though we didn't last too long, I was able to snap some photos of the girls!

 

They are growing quickly, these girls of mine.

 

 

 

Snowshoe Farms ~ Christmas 2013

For the third year in a row, we made the trek out to Snowshoe farms in Sumner to find our perfect Christmas tree!

(After 5 minutes they all look the same but that's ok)

 

Two years ago, I alternated between carrying Mara in my front pack and pushing our jogging stroller through the mud.

Last year, she had just started walking and was a running, stumbling, muddy mess by the time we left.

 

THIS YEAR... was golden.

Kennedy was really into the whole experience and with just a little guidance on the correct size of the tree, we let her pick it out.

She was BEAMING. So cute.

(Mara was in it for the candy canes and hot chocolate at the end).

 

We had a big posse with us this year which was so fun!

My mom, Dave and Rachael came as did the

Williams, Heimgartner and Harvie families, respectively.

 

Now for a few pics from our fun morning!

 

 

 

 

And a few tree decorating photos that I love and I know will be so, so special as the years go by.
