Hiking Silly Mountain

Here they are up at the top of Silly Mountain.

With Bryant and Madi in FREEZING weather and here in AZ, we were enjoying weather in the 70's. We decided to go on a hike of Silly Mountain with the Rapiers, Wolfleys and Scotts. It was a great time and the kids did great. It was a beautiful day and we can't wait to do more hike. The picture of Max and Maya are at the being of the trail - the hike was about 1.8 miles.

- 22 degrees - Yikes

How do you prepare your child who has lived in Arizona all of her life for -22 degrees in Minneapolis?

I have not idea but I am trying my best. Madi and Bryant are going to Minneapolis for a cousin's baptism and I am really worried about the 2 of them. The high today in Minneapolis is supposed to be 5 but right now at 10:45 AZ time it is -7.

I was going to dress up madison like the little boy in the christmas story who can't move his arms but I told her not to stick her tongue to a flag pole even if Bryant dares her to.

Hopefully, when they return late Sunday night - I won't find 2 popsicles at the airport waiting for me.

New Years Day Fun

On New Years Day, we went quading with some families from our ward. It was a lot of fun. Maya liked to go fast, Max liked to shoot BB guns and Madison loved to steer the quad while Bryant was driving and liked to go on long rides! It was lots of fun to get out of town for a few hours!!

Riding the Light Rail!

On Wednesday Morning, we went to ride the light rail. It was free and we got there early enough in the morning that there were no lines. After the ride we went to Cracker Barrel for breakfast!! Yum Yum
