Paging Dr. Dad
Play Date
Welcome to Idaho Falls
Even though we've been living in Idaho Falls since the beginning of June we haven't officially been here until today. What made it official? Snow. We were told many things about the area when we announced that we were moving here, but by far the most common was that the winters were nasty compared to Caldwell. Six months later and we are getting our first taste.
The kids have all seen snow before of course, but never really enough snow that stuck around long enough to play in. Snow in the Boise/Caldwell area comes in small doses and very rarely lasts longer than 12 hours.
Today we finally got some of the dreaded white stuff. It was only about two inches and it was barely wet enough to hold together and make a snow man, some snowballs, and some snow angels, but the kids had a blast. None of them were ready to come in after two hours even with the promise of hot chocolate.
Since we can't fight it I figure we might as well embrace the inevitable. Snowmen, snow ball fights, snow forts, ice fishing, and sledding are just some of the activities we look forward to over the coming months! Oh if anyone has blue prints for a snow tank Caleb would like to talk to you.

No Hair
This is a picture when Addy had hair. Several months ago Kylee had cut Addy's hair, it never did grow back right. So Geoff and I decided to shave it, why shave it? That is probably what most people are thinking, well since we have shaved it, it has come back twice as thick! Oh the joys of having children, I was upset that Kylee had cut her hair, but of course I forgave her. We have to remember that they are children and sometimes they do things that drive us nuts. Kylee learned her lesson, that is all that I can ask is that we learn from are mistakes. I can actually joke about it now! I love the look on Addy's face, she has this look on her face of ha ha, like she is planning something.
