McCall, Idaho (Last ID post-I promise!)

Us at the top of Brundage Mtn

I wanted this picture for the trees. They were amazing!

Liam watching his brothers sled in 9F. They lasted about 45 minutes.

Zim's hot springs. The water is heated by magma and comes out at 145F-we were in the 90F pool. The kids had a blast!

More of the crew at Zim's.

We took Owen and Noah snowshoeing. They did pretty well-two hours was about all they could do.
Grandma and Nick came snowshoeing too. Aunt Becky and Uncle Mike came-but were not in the shot.

How many cousins can you fit in a tub? Nick wanted nothing to do with this motley crew.

The kids played for HOURS on these snow piles from the snow plows in the parking lot. They wre very creative and made castles and had hostile takeovers of neighboring castles. Noah was the King (self-appointed of course), Lydia the Queen, Owen was General Officer (he came up with the name), and Luke was the Duke of Luke.

Wintson loved to carry firewood for the wood burning stove that heats the condos. We had to keep a fire going constantly or it got really cold.

The Pied Piper-aka Uncle Adam, with the bigger cousins.

Christmas morning-they got iPod shuffles from Santa.

Cousin Lydia-the lone female cousin getting ready to be a big sister again.

  1. Love all the pics--I'm glad Lydia got to hang with your boys and that they were so good about letting a girl play with them. They are such sweet kids and we look forward to seeing them again....even if it isn't until November!
