Sage's Cast, Birthday's & Goofin Off Once Again!!


The day Sage got her cast off was so exciting. She was nervous about the saw they used to cut it off. Once it was over she said it was really freeing.



Gretta Turns 75 (Feb 1st) We celebrated by watching the Super Bowl, making a nice dinner and having Deceptively Delicious chocolate cupcakes with avacado. The kids love these cupcakes and so did Gretta! Happy Birthday Nana!!


Nick's Birthday Adventure (Feb 8th)
We celebrated Nick's 51st Birthday (how did that happen, he's an old man!) by making it a family day. The kids love family day because it usually means we are exploring more of Idaho. First, we went trap shooting. The girls were a big help there, Sage kept score and Katy pushed the button for the targets to come out when we said pull. Then we went for a drive to check out our next fly fishing spot on the South Fork of the Boise River. There was plenty of snow, the river looked great and there was plenty of fish to be caught. Can't wait until spring. After our road trip we took Nick to Famous Dave's Bar-b-que restaurant for dinner, YUMMO!!



Katy & Nolan roller blading inside. Now that's Funny!! No they aren't supposed to roller blade in the house but sometimes you just gotta let them have fun when it's cold outside!!



Until next month. Stay Safe and Much Love!

Keechler's came to Boise

Just after Christmas the Keechler's came to Boise. It took them forever to arrive due to traffic and weather conditions through the mountains.yes, they drove up to Idaho this time. I'm guessing they regretted not flying.. Oh well, they finally arrived on Saturday after Christmas and the kids were so excited to see their cousins, Sam & Jack. We were happy to see you too Sue & Joe!!! Here are some pics of the kids having fun. We did kid stuff like played Wii, Sam & Nolan wrestled a lot, went sledding together, they came to Sage's indoor soccer tournament, the Keechlers went skking one day and Nick took Sam & the girls skiing the next, then they had to go home before New Years. We miss them so much... It's so hard to live this far away sometimes. Nolan was really sad to see Sam & Joe leave - they are his buddies & play with him so he will miss them a lot. Every once in a while he'll say "They're coming to our house tomorrow". I tell him No we're going to their house next and he gets so excited.
