Love This!

What More Can I Say......

What is Your Weather Today?....

Our weather today is snowy with a likely hood of SNOW! Hurray! No one is complaining here, even Wilfred has an official snow day. This is our 3rd storm in 3 days. Clayton built this snowman yesterday.
Joel loving on our good dog Ed!

Enjoy your day!

Feeling very Spoiled.....

Just before Thanksgiving I had a birthday. Nothing too impressive...just inching ever closer to 30! I received some beautiful Lilies from my hubby and some yummy chocolates. Kaleb did his part by eating the entire bag of chocolates. Thanks buddy, guess I didn't really need the calories! I was also taken out to dinner, but the real treat was the dishes.
That's right I said dishes...Not just any dishes, FIESTA WARE!!!! Aren't they beautiful?! I love them and am feeling quite spoiled! Birthdays aren't so bad, especially when they come with Fiesta ware!

Kaleb, oh dear sweet, naughty Kaleb! At 2 years old he insists that he is old enough to cook at the stove. No matter what I do I can not keep him out of MY kitchen.....I guess I had better get used to it and accept the help!

Today came the with the first bits of moisture. We are desperately needing any wet we get. Today it came in the form of ice and a bit of snow. We don't get that much snow here so our state is ill equipped to deal with it. Wilfred got caught up in this mess trying to make his way home this afternoon. This is on the interstate, which they finally just had to close. But then there was a rollover on RT 66, which blocked the 2 main routes to our town. Wilfred made it home unscathed.....I wish I could say the same for these poor trucks!

They were effectively holding each other up, keeping them from rolling over.

And the WINNER Is.........

Idaho Trip PART 1....

Wow....what happened to summer? I have lots of pictures I could post but it would take me days. So I decided to just tell you all what we have been up to and only post the pictures from our latest adventure. Enjoy them and don't forget to comment!
We have been keeping busy...our well went dry, we lived water-less for a few weeks. We did finally manage to get hooked in to a water system. Lindsy got a Beagle puppy, named her Daisy. Kaleb turned 2! A week later Clayton turned 7! A trip to the zoo with Auntie Rae and Jeremiah. The start of schooling again. Lindsy is doing Kindergarten, Clayton is tackling 2nd grade. Wilfred has been working both in town and out of town. I became a Consultant for NORWEX Enviro Products. I love the company, the products, and the change it has made for me. I will post more on that later. Until then find out more at www.jeanettecronk.norwex.biz
That it is Summer in a nutshell...
Neither Wilfred or I drew out for our Elk hunts, so we decided to celebrate our 8th Anniversary and take a trip. We decided to go to Idaho and back via Wyoming. We loaded our 4 kids and 2 of the dogs, (Missy and Daisy) plus all our camping gear into the car. Drove all night and pulled into Green River, WY in time to eat lunch and stay the night with Grandma and Grandpa Wilson. (Wilfred's grandparents)

This is how we Roll! Remember 2 adults, 4 kids, and 2 dogs packed in here!

A real Happy Camper!

Can you find 3 kids here?

Not a real morning person when there is FROST inside the tent!

Fishing....

Lindsy was the only one to catch a fish! It must be the pink pole!

Lots of hiking....had to watch for bears.

It happened to be time for the yearly Salmon Run. They turn red as the trek upstream to spawn. Amazing to watch!!! Also part of why the bears were so active.

Making homemade biscuits in camp, Kaleb was a great help!

Idaho Trip PART 2...

Our Tent....during the middle of the first night, Wilfred had to go out and tarp us. There was frost on the inside of the tent. We were cold but enjoying the whole experience! Breakfast.....yum!

I do believe this is the first time EVER, that my children were allowed sprite for breakfast. It will likely NEVER happen again!

Water, water everywhere.....

Wheat Harvest in the Swan Valley. Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!
