Idaho Winter Trip 2019 - Dec 31st

Date: Dec 31st

New Year's Eve!

We spent half the day playing in Blackfoot.
Once the littles woke,
we headed to Idaho Falls to visit Brad!
He had been in California for the week and had just gotten back home.
We had dinner with him and just chatted and caught up on life.

Luke and his crew came over later to have a little NYE's bash with us!
We played some games and party'd it up...at 8pm! lol

 

And yes I brought our trademark mini Martinelli's to the celebration!
(and yes Ryan thinks I'm crazy that I hauled these from AZ! lol hey they're hard to find!)

The kids always love these!!

Trex's party glasses kill me! haha

Cheers and more cheers!

 

We loaded up and headed back to Blackfoot about 8:30pm.
The joys of having toddlers!
Gotta get them to bed before the meltdowns happen!

Anden and Taylee stayed up with me and Ryan!
And yes we actually made it until midnight!! lol

Anden tamed the wild cat
and then even taught it to watch youtube videos with him! lol
(probably of other people playing video games!)

 

We ate and played games and watched the NYE bash on TV.

You know whatever it took to stay awake! lol

 

 

Taking a pic with Ryan is almost as hard as taking pics of toddlers!! lol

Ok finally he stopped goofing out!

3...2...1....HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Such a fun little night!
Can't wait to see what 2019 has in store!

Idaho Winer Trip 2019 - Dec 30th

Date: Dec 30th

We woke up and went to church with Papa Nolie & Mama Nita

Then back home to play in the snow!

Later that afternoon Luke and his family came over to play too!!!

The big kids had been dying to see them!

That cute girl in the middle of the RZR...oh it's Trex wearing Aisy's snow clothes! lol

Of course the inevitable snow ball fight broke out.

It was a drive by snow ball fight with the RZRs involved as well!

Their tough war faces!

As usual Ryan takes it a tad too far!

Eastlie and I decided to stay our distance so we wouldn't be the ones crying soon! lol

Like Father, Like Son! lol

Hey honey stand with Laiky and let me get a pic of you guys!

And then suddenly I got pelted with a snowball right into my brand new phone!!

After I cleaned the snow off my phone I realized I got the action shot! lol

Nice a big snowball coming at me and Ryan gets keeps smiling like he didn't do anything!

About then Eastlie and I headed in to help with Dinner.

Eastlie told Grandma Norma all about the crazy snowball fight!

It took some convincing but we finally got the rest of the crew inside for dinner.

Well except Trex.

He literally was going to stay out there all night by himself! haha

Kids table shenanigans!

The adult table...which is still a kids table lol

Eventually Luke's family had to head back home.

So it was a chill night of movies, snow cones (literally snow!) and popcorn!

Annie patiently waiting for Eastlie to drop some popcorn!

Then Taylee started panicking that she lost her tooth and thought she swallowed it!!

So it was a mad dash to clean out her mouth and figure out what happened.

I went with my gut,

and dug through her popcorn bowl.

YEP it was at the bottom!!

She was so sucked into the movie that she thought she had bit a popcorn kernel

and had spit it out into her bowl!! lol

No honey it's not an old maid...but rather a real molar!

After the littles went to bed,

I learned that Anden has talents that I never want to know or see! haha

Apparently he has a flexispine!

And with that we ended the night and went to bed! lol
