Jackson Hole {Ice Skating}

On our last day in Idaho/ Wyoming, we drove into jackson Hole and had breakfast at the Bunnery.  There was a lady dressed as a clown making weapons out of balloons, which kept the boys very entertained!!!  On our way back to the car we saw a cow moose just hanging out in the town center park....  So cool!!!!

Before heading home we took the boys ice skating.  They both had so much fun and were actually pretty good at it.  Scott of course put the rest of us to shame and was able to hold Reese.  She was so cute smiling and yelling the whole time.  

On our way home we completed our trip by getting ice cream at Reid's Dairy, it was the perfect ending to a fun trip!!!!

Jackson Hole {National Elk Refuge}

 In the week leading up to Christmas, we had absolutely no snow at our house!!! I love snow so I was of course very depressed.... One morning I told Scott I wanted to go somewhere with lots of snow.  Right away we planned and booked a trip to Jackson Hole.  Not only was there lots and lots of snow, but it was also 0 degrees, which wasn't ideal but we still had lots of fun.

We stayed about 20 mins. outside of Jackson in Victor, ID.  On New Years Day we drove to the Elk Refuge and took the kids on a slay ride through all of the elk.  The boys had a bingo game that had all kinds of things that they may see on the ride and were so happy to check things off.  When we got back to the Ranger Station they turned in their bingo cards and were given awesome gifts.  I think that Scott was the most entertained by the elk, but like always... he was constantly looking for wolves and asking locals if they have seen any????

Skiing Fun!!!!

Even though the snow has been horrible, we have still done a lot of skiing this year!!! At the begining of the winter bridger was addiment that he was not going to ski this year!!!! So, I decided to put him in ski school for a day and sure enough, he fell in love!!! He has improved so much this year and can deffinatly out ski his mom!  Dakota has also improved greatly this year. He is skiing black diamond runs and going off jumps like crazy! It is so much fun having both the boys skiing so well.

Bridger turns 6!!!!

On January 5th, Bridger turned 6!!!!

He is getting so old, I can hardly believe it....

I feel like Bridger has grown so much over the past year,

he started kindergarten and is doing so well,

And he has gone from being the baby of our family to being the best big brother in the world.  

Every time he gets home, the first thing that he asks me is "where is Reese?"  and if she is asleep, he is always so so sad :-)

This year Bridger wanted a Minecraft Birthday!!!

He started the day off with a big breakfast with his favorite... BACON.

After school he got to go shopping at the Lego Store where he spent all of his Christmas and Birthday money on Bionicles!!!  Then we ate pizza in the food court and picked up his special Minecraft cupcakes from Dippidee.  

Bridger chose Chili for his birthday dinner and had a lots of friends and family over for his big night. 

His big present from mom and dad was Roller Blades which we used later in the week at Classic Skating.

So happy Bridger is in our family!!!!

 Matt and Bridger always share a Birthday Party and 

I feel like we have about a million of these classic fireplace photos.

(even though this picture is blurry... I still love her open mouth smile!!!)
