First Good Snow of the Season

Not much going on now. Getting ready for Xmas...lights up, tree cut and up, stuff hanging all over the ceiling, lights... Amber has really went to town, as usual. And, as usual it looks great.



We did get the first nice snow of the Season this morning... powdery, about 6 inches, and we could sweep it off the driveway it was so fluffy. Here's a few pics, we'll update more as Xmas draws near.

Getting ready for Turkey Day

Not too much going on the last two weeks. Weather has been incredible mild, today making it to 60 degrees and nice. They've been predicting snow for the last week but so far nothing except that one freak day of snow!

The girls have been able to play outside for most of the days except for a few days last week where the highs were maybe 35, and the lows 16 degrees. We've only had the fire burning a few days last week which normally we have one going daily by now.

We've got the house prepared for winter this weekend... wrapped the outside pipes, winterized the sprinkler systems, raked and mowed up the leaves, split and stacked wood and the girls helped with hanging winter decorations inside the house.

We've had some great sunsets that we've snapped a few photos of. Here's a few photos of the kids, the family, around the house, bunny hunting, hanging xmas decorations, festival of trees, blah blah blah. Have a great Thanksgiving everyone!

Pictures of the last week

Nothing really going on but school, work, and a little playing outside. We had some snow but the last week has been beautiful, perfect Fall weather. Frank went to the Swan Valley area motorbiking in the mountains and saw the fall colors all over the valley. All the trees in the neighborhood have changed. I'm pretty sure my finger is broke, I ate sh*t 4 times throughout the ride, but had a great time with a bunch of buddies.


Also, our neighbor Sonya is an artist and she drew Mia's face from a photo she took. We took the girls over to the Idaho Falls Art place to check out her drawing in the gallery during open house. Unfortunately an artist bought it from Chicago and her picture is off to Illinois! Here's a copy of it, she did such a GREAT job!!!



I'm sure we'll be posting more photos in a few weeks when halloween comes along. Here's a few pics and a vid or two of the last week... Some of the longer, narrower photos are panoramic shots... and remember you can always click on a photo to see the original size.
