F.H.E.

This is what we did for fhe tonight. You have got to love fall!!!!!!!

happy hair

So this is what we did yesterday afterschool. We got a litte crazy with the ponytails and what fun we had. Sara & Tessa wanted to wear theirs' to school. I told them they would have to wait for crazy hair day. Also Clara has been dry for two days now, she even went poop in the potty tonite. YEAH!!!!!!!

The mighty hunter

So Doug went out with some friends to do what all good Idahoans do this time of year, HUNT. He was trying to be such a good provider and such. But he has the worst luck with that. Of the 5 or so times he has gone 3 times he has ended up hiking back into town vehicleless. It has become quite a joke with us, (okay, just me, but it is funny!) This time was no different. After going out on errands with the girls I get a call from him wondering when we will be home so he can take the suburban back out to retrieve his broken down truck. This time it was the alternater that stopped, so he hitch-hiked back down the canyon into town, leaving his friend and two boys up in the hills to hunt or freeze, (which ever came first). So he got the parts he needed and we deposited the girls at a friend's house and made the drive up the winding and narrow road the retrieve his truck and friends. It was actually quite a nice drive up and we even found a few hot springs. Then he tinkered around and fixed the broken part, (he is quite good at that, luckily) and we headed back into town.
And that is what my mighty hunter did yesterday.

What we did this weekend

The girls had Thurs. and Fri. off last week for teacher inservice. So we went on vacation at home. We spent the mornings cleaning and thinning and re-arranging the house. And then Doug took the afternoons off and we went on drives. One day we went up above Horseshoe Bend in the mountains to Silver Creek Plung. It was so beautiful!!! I love fall!!! The hills were just covered. Then we got to go swimming, outside, in a light rain, but the water was from a hot spring and was about 90 degress. It was heaven and we had the whole pool to ourselves!!!! Needless to say we were there for quite some time. Then on the way home we stopped at a little diner in Garden Valley for dinner and hot chocolate. YUM!!!!
We also got to go to Linder Pumpkin Patch for FHE Monday night. The weather was so nice. I couldn't believe it because it has been so cold, but the light wind was almost warm. The girls had fun walking through the fields to find just the perfect pumpkin. And Amber being so considerate of others had to get a tiny little one for the baby.= >
