A Few Things Learned...

Just a quick update on a few things that have been going on and a few things I've learned so far...

Sledding in real snow down a huge hill is more fun than you could imagine..  

  

Regardless of how old a kid is, he/she will love to play in snow..

Allie Rai is awesome at building snowmen.  She topped many of the local's work.  However she is only one that put a hula skirt on him..  This picture is during a melt down...

These colors stand out BIG TIME when everything is white. 

The folks here live for St. Patrick's Day..... Here are some of our new friends who all transferred from other divisions around the country...  we have a great group..

Fishing around here has some of the most beautiful views you will ever see.. 

 

I discovered the one thing I truely dislike about winter here....

Dawn looks great cheering for any school... She is in the middle facing the other direction..

Allie Rai and I are awesome at building bag toss boards.. Yes we built it, and yes we painted it.. We are now taking orders if you would like us to build you one.  Georgia boards will be admired and will look awesome, all others will built to the same quality however laughed at constantly... 

(Betsy, in other words we can build one with a little bee on it for you and Dan) 

Allie Rai and I can make the best out of shopping for prom dresses for Dawn.

 Dogs are allowed to drive in Idaho.. Who knew??????

Dawns first prom.. So pretty it scares the hell out of me...

When building a barn from pop cycle sticks for a 5th graders project it doesn't hurt the grade to add a complete custom truss system.  Nor does it hurt to add a loft complete with hay..

Yeah we might have shown off a little...

Simple road trips have spectacular views..

Before our investment into a snow blower, kids made great cheap labor...

and families are truly missed!!!!!!
