Snow Trip

While Justin was off over the holiday's he took the kids up to Twilight Canyon our favorite tubing spot on Mt. Graham. I stayed home with Mr. Grant and worked on things at home. They had a wonderful time I heard. I got a little worried when they were gone for 4 1/2 hours. I guess they were just having too much fun to come home! The kids loved this snow house they made and they kept asking their Dad if he could bring it home for them. I think Kiersten could live in the snow and be happy. Logan all bundled up. Having warm snow clothes makes all the difference! Thanks Mom and Tif for letting us use all your stuff. Most of the snow clothes are the ones Justin wore when he was a little kid which is kind of cool. The kids liked wearing stuff that they knew their Dad wore and played in. Of course Logan just kept laughing because he didn't believe that his dad was ever that little! He thought that was a pretty fun joke! Hunter loved tubing! This year the kids did more tubing on the actual tube then last year. They still like sliding down just on their bums and Twilight Canyon is the perfect place for "Bum Sledding!"
Kiersten getting ready for a little "Bum Sledding!"
WEEE HAAA!
Logan taking his turn. He had a great time this year! Last year his hands got cold in like 45 minutes and he was done!
Kiersten and Hunter getting themselves ready!
On your mark, get set, GOOOOO!!!
Even though their faces are blurry I love their expressions..............half fear half excitement!
Hunter having a ball! Once I saw all these pictures I was really bummed I didn't get to go. I had a blast last year "Bum Sledding!"
Landed right before the trees, nice job!
Kiersten striking a pose. Justin was such a good husband to take all these pictures for me. Thanks Sweetheart! He had a fun time with the kids and they always LOVE Daddy Time!
And there she goes!
Kiersten was so very excited to get up to the snow and build a snowman! They first made the snow house, then tubed for a couple of hours and then the boys were getting cold and they hadn't yet made a snowman. Kiersten was bummed but told her dad that it was OK and they should just leave because the boys were cold. She is so sweet and of course Justin had to stay and help her build her snowman after being so sweet about it! They had asked me to give them a carrot for their snowman before they left, but between making green chili burros, snacks, and hot chocolate (complete with ready whip) I forgot the carrot. They were lucky to find a carrot up there..........what luck huh?
So all in all they had a wonderful time and even brough back a truck full of snow for all the neighbor kids to play with. They had snow ball fights for two days!
