Christmas Fun Run

My work sponsored a 5K fun run in December and it was mucho fun! It was a mid 20 degrees outside that day, I believe. Brrrrrrr.

My co-workers and I.

Immediately after I finished the run, I went home and got Carter and brought him back. I am glad I did because we got to jump on a carriage ride pulled by giant horses. Carter was thrilled (as you can see on his face).

 I like my new fish-less fish tank says Carter

 Neat clock Nana got Papa

 Yes, Carter put a band-aid in his hair. We are not sure why. It hurt coming out

Holiday

We got the cutest real Christmas tree this year. I loved the fact that it was small enough for Carter's little hands to decorate.

December

 We always have fun sledding at our local ski hill before it opens for the season.

Carter and his friend Jordyn. I think Jordyn was sledding down on her belly here.

Dinner with friends from out of town at the brewery.

 More sledding

 Laila

My Mom and I at The Nutcracker. It was our first time seeing this local production. We loved it!

 

Halloween 2011

Carter was a dinosaur this year. Unfortunately he liked wearing his costume much more before Halloween actually arrived.

The night we bought his costume. Love!

  

We went to the annual Zoo Boo kids party at the Pocatello Zoo, but Carter didn't feel like wearing his dino costume that day. We had a lot of fun with Grandma. Especially when that person jumped out of the coffin and scared her! I got a good laugh. :-)

 Making new friends

 Story time

 Playing on the spider web

Grace turns 1! We all had fun at her First Birthday/Halloween party.

 

 I think this Lion (birthday girl) has her eye on a certain older dinosaur : )

 Brandon, Steph, and baby Jameson. Cute little family.

 

Carter took Nana and Papa trick or treating at my work. Very fun and very overwhelming. So many people. So much candy.

Adult Halloween Party - lots of fun! No candy.

 Jeremy wins best costume. That is, when the category is "tightest costume" and the requirements are you have to wear your wife's clothes. So funny - love it Jer!

Cherry Springs

Just to give you an idea how truly beautiful our Idaho mountains are. Especially in the fall.
