Christmas in Colorado!


We left for Colorado last week. We drove for 3 days through Reno, NV - Salt Lake City, UT and Wyoming and then down to Loveland, Colorado. This is the mountains in Winnemuca, NV, where we stayed one night.



Breanna enjoying the ride!
We stopped and played in the snow in Utah! We had to unpack all the snowboots because there was about 5" if snow on this playground! It was good to get out and stretch our legs :)





Driving through Wyoming, we drove through a windstorm. We saw 2 semi-trucks that had blown over onto their sides...how scary! It was very cold too!! Couldn't decide if it was worth it to get out of the car to go to the bathroom or not!







And we finally made it to Grandma and Grandpa McMorrow's home in Colorado!



We are headed out to the playground behind Grandma and Grandpa's house! There is some snow on the ground and Daddy got us a snowsled!












Aren't I just the cutest thing! These are Columbian snowbibs that Mommy found for $10 at a resale shop!!


Grandpa McMorrow and Breanna headed for the snowhill!








Baylee and Bryce are the first to test it! I think it's a go!
































Grandma and Breanna's turn!













They made it down the hill and are walking back up!










Bryce's turn!



















Good thing the chainlink fence was there to stop them!










Grandpa McMorrow and the grandkids!

















There are all kinds of "new" books to read at Grandpa and Grandma's house!
We are having a great time! Kevin went off to Kansas to birdhunt with his brother, Pat and his family! He has already gotten a few pheasants and is hoping to get some quail!

Breanna's Birthday Party!


Breanna turned 2 on November 23rd! She is such a big girl now, doing everything her siblings are doing...

Breanna got a new winter coat from Grandma and Grandpa McMorrow.



Opening Birthday presents!







Mom made a pumpkin cake for the big day!








Breanna just loves her new tea set!!

Josephine County Fair!

We went to the Fair this year with the Gattey family! Of course, we had to get some Umpqua Dairy ice cream.... :)



Baylee and Bryce made paper mache bugs to enter into the fair. Baylee made "Lilly the ladybug" and Bryce made "Bob the bumblebee". They both won exhibitor ribbons!







Breanna and I entered some homegrown sunflowers! Breanna won 2nd place and I won a 1st and a 2nd :) What fun to go and see how we did!











All the kids!

Down At The River!


It's fun to go down to the river, play in the sand and wave at the people in the jetboats going by!
Summer is a great time to play outside and get dirty!
