Fun in the SNOW!!!!

I got home from work yesterday and the kids and Daddy had been busy all day rolling snowballs and playing in the snow. They made a SUPER tall snowman!

As soon as we got home from church today they were headed out again. I crawled off the coach for just a few minutes to run outside and take some pictures. They are still out there havin FUN!

Headed to Idaho Falls "Just Cuz" we wanted to have some fun...

...play with friends, and run in the "Just Cuz" Pocatello half marathon.

Lexi and Cole had a 4 day weekend so I took some time of work and we decided to go and visit the Hix Family in Idaho Falls. Sara thought it would be a great idea to run a half marathon while we were visiting. :)
Sara is the host extraordinaire so our days were packed with FUN!!!
Some of the highlights...
We got a babysitter and had a dinner date, me, Sara, and Stephanie(my other great friend who now lives there), we ate at the Snake Pit and had the most delicious Fish Tacos I have ever had.
Had lunch with Ryker, Gavin, and Clarissa at their school, and then checked them out early so we could go play.
Went to a really pretty park and feed the ducks, posed for some pictures, and then headed to Bambinos for dinner. (Something I had been waiting for for years)
Went to the Visitor's Center and watched the new movie about the Restoration. Cole crashed out but Lexi and I really liked it.
Drove to Pocatello early Saturday morning, dropped the kids off with Sara's sister Anna, and then ran 13.1 miles together in cowgirl attire chatting with each other the entire way :)
Checked into the Holiday Inn and went straight to the p00l with the kids where they played for 3 straight hours in the water.
Went to the Pocatello Mall thinking there would be a wide variety of food for dinner, and there was only Pizza. So that is what we ate :(
Headed back to the hotel, snuggled down and watched a movie, Richie Rich, and then lights off, everyone was fast asleep.
Woke up and headed home, smiling the entire drive because we had so so so much FUN!!!

Trick or Treat...

Halloween is here!!! Lexi was a WITCH and Cole was a TRANSFORMER. We had fun hanging out with all our friends in the neighborhood. We made some yummy chili and soup, invited some family and freinds, Brenda and Brandi and their families came over, and the Ranstroms joined us too, then we made our rounds around the subdivision TRICK-OR-TREATING.
