Oh Christmas Tree

This year we got the tree decorated VERY early (the day after thanksgiving) so we could enjoy it all season long. Emma Loved helping... as for Greg he enjoyed watching!

Merry Christmas!

There is no place like home

Happy Halloween. Emma was Dorothy and Diggy played Toto. He followed Emma around the neighborhood Trick or Treating.Emma never said trick or treat...but she did say BOO! It was so cute! Also check out gregs Hat...Pretty Cool...What a Sport! Ha Ha.Emma's Best friend Kate was Minnie Mouse

Halloween 07! Yea!

Spooktacular

We made it a tradition to visit Gardner Village when all the witches are out. Makes for some great photos. However, Emma is so crazy half the time...this is what we ended up with this year.

Come Halloween you will see Emma decked out in her Dorothy Costume. And the best of all is that Diggy will play Toto. Perfect!

"There is no place like home"
More Like there is no freaking place that carries Ruby Red Slippers. I had to call every target, wal mart and Payless and bid on every Ebay pair until I finally found them. Yea, My Halloween is complete.

Thank You Target!

Greg Turned 30!

We decided to celebrate in Jackson Hole.

We spent some time in Yellowstone too...

Greg was pretty excited about Old Faithful!

On the way home we stopped in St Anthony

to go Riding. It was my first time. It was great...

I even got the horse to gallop.and of course

Greg is a true Cowboy! Yee Haw!

Firsts

Emma has had a couple firsts in the last month.

Emma took her first ride at lagoon on her own. Well she was sat with a couple other kids who i felt really bad for...they did not really enjoy the ride and neither did Emma.

Well just stick to her new slide from now on. She can handle this ride.

Crossroads, the jumbo slide and footlong corndogs...YES!

We headed out early so we could visit the animals before the band, Crossraods went on. Emma has been learning about Farm Animals. The whole time we heard MOO...it didnt even matter what the animal was...they all said MOO!

We are Crossroads Groupies...especially Emma. She loves to see her Grandpa and Aunt Mandy on Stage. "They Rocked" as Greg put it.

After the performance, a footlong corndog, french fries, some BAD homemade rootbeer and Gregs visit with a few carnies we slid down the Jumbo Slide to end our night. Yee Haw! Cant wait until next Year.

Wes & Claire get Married

Summer, Summer, Summertime
