Family Time

The day after Thanksgiving was almost as enjoyable as Thanksgiving. 

The family that was together took a trip to the mountains to enjoy the snow and cold and find a Christmas tree.
Maya,  It will be fun!

Notice the green grass.  
It is about time to leave.


Pomerelle Ski Resort parking lot
Alivia is ready to go!






Joel is not quite sure if he likes the cold!
He is sure cute in the fuzzy suit.

still uphill
The 2012 Christmas tree has be chosen.  We are waiting for everyone to make it up and take a picture before we cut it down.


James is having a great time this year.
He enjoys the snow while he waits.

Anna got to cut the tree down.
Caleb cut it shorter.  While he was cutting, the chain saw ran out of fuel.  Chain saws can still cut without fuel.  It is much harder, but still possible.  Good job Caleb!

Time to go back down the hill
Alivia gets to have a fun ride.

Everyone is about down

Here comes Millie


It is too hot for coats!

Benjamin Allred family
The boys had enough of the cold.




As soon as we get back Maya jumps to her favorite spot in the house.


When we got home, Jay Christensen family was playing a game of football.  Max came and joined the action.
Watch out for Peter.  He is small and fast.
I believe that Nellie is doing a dancing step while the other team is in a huddle.
I think everyone is waiting for a pass.

James is running with the ball.



Anna is playing quarterback.


Catch it!!


The football game stopped and then it was time for some shotgun shooting.  Caleb is throwing the clay pigeons.  There is just a few more minutes with daylight.






What a wonderful world to live in!!!

It was a run to the end of Frenchman Island and back. 2.5 miles!


Maya spent time holding Joel.
