The Truck Ride Home

This is what happens of a week of hard playing!! I just love how my kiddos fall asleep in there car seats in the truck! They are so cute! They didn't last very long before they feel asleep in the truck on the way home! They were really happy to be home and play with their toys, but they really missed Amber and the kids! We will have to go back soon!!

Playing at a Park in Boise

Here are just a couple of pictures from a park we went to in Boise! The girls had a ton of fun! It was really nice being able to get away from home... and to see such good friends! It was so nice.. can't wait to go back!!

Beautiful Mountains

These are some pictures of the mountains between Mountain Home and Arco! I love taking pictures of mountains.. not really sure why, but I find them to be breath taking! Jake and I were both amazed with how much snow were still on the mountains!! It is so nice.. to see!! Hope you all enjoy!

Shocked

Just when we needed a little up lifter... We decided to do something cheap and fast last night for dinner.. So we went and got a famous $5 pizza. Well Jake went in (he was in uniform, just got off work) and there was a little line. So he got to the back of the line and patiently waited. Well he got up to the counter and was told that a customer a couple people in front of his bought his pizza and wanted to thank Jake for serving our country!! Needless to say he was very shocked and said are you serious and thank you! Jake would have loved to tell the mystery person thank you! I thought it was very nice! Right now times are not good for anyone, and for someone to show such kindness just amazes me! So I just wanted to say.. doing something that small could really help someone. Granted we are fine we could have paid for our own pizza it was just nice to know that there are people out there that appreciate our military!!

Ducks

When we got to the river today the ducks were very hungry.... the followed use everywhere we went. It was really funny. In the very last picture that duck followed us everywhere. It was making Gracie very uneasy. She kept on looking back and then she would start to walk a little faster!! It was super cute! I can't wait till it is warmer and we can enjoy going to the river a little more!!

My Big Girls

The girls have been dying to go to the river... So I took them today. Yes in the freezing cold!! Needless to say we didn't stay very long but it was really nice to be outside of the house!!

Gracie Sportin' Mommy's Glasses

This past weekend we got to go to a hockey game with some friends! Well Gracie was getting kind of bored so I let her look in my purse! I look up and she has my sun glasses on!! I think she looks so cute!!
I must say the hockey games were a blast. Thanks Amy and A.J. for inviting us!! I wish I were able to get more pictures but I didn't. The first hockey game was kinda lame. It was between Sun Valley and Skyline. And well Skyline did not put up much of a fight!! The second game was between Meridian and I.F.!! Well Meridian was the defending champs and let me tell ya I know why too!! They have a very aggressive team!! When we left the was about 10 minutes left in the last period and Meridian was up 9 to 0!! What a game!!

What Jake Does When He Is Bored

When Gracie got sick we had to take her to the doc. just to make sure everything was okay. Well Gracie wasn't to thrilled when the doc. gave her the strep test. So Jake being the great Daddy he is got a glove and started playing with it. Blowing it up and teasing Gracie with it. Well when we got home Jake got the bright idea to blow it up and put it on his head. Here are the end results! Thanks for being such an awesome Daddy Jake!!!!
