We went to Idaho for three weeks in November. We spent most of it in Boise with Kevin's family and were also able to go to Sugar City for a weekend, which was a blast for me to be home again. It snowed while we were there, so we were able to 'get our fix' and are happy to be back to warm weather.
We went to the zoo in Boise. It was much colder than we were used to, but the fall colors were so pretty!
Wade had a lot of fun at grandma and grandpas house, especially when all his cousins were there.
- Climbing all over Brigham, who is only two weeks younger than him (top left)
- His all-time favorite thing was to play in the dog kennel. He did this all day, everyday! (bottom left).
- He took a bath with Beckett almost everyday. Its much more fun when there's someone to play with! (bottom right).
This is a video of Wade singing Christmas carols with mom while we were in Sugar City.
Seriously, this kid cracks us up everyday. This is him squishing his face up against the mesh on the portable crib.
One of our many cold walks to the park.
We went to a trampoline place. It was a blast! And wade LOVED crawling around on the trampolines. I guess a tramp is on our future purchase list!
This street is right behind the candy store. We couldn't miss this photo opp.
Wade's new cousin! Terese had her baby while we were there. Isn't she gorgeous! I was able to take a few newborn photos for them.
DECEMBER!
There was a Christmas parade in Glendale, it was fun, and surprisingly really cold, since we were sitting in the shade.
- Wade and his buddy Tallin watching the parade (top)
- There was a group of old ladies who were dancing. I will join a group like this someday! (middle left)
- Most of the floats were nativity scenes. The camel was awesome! (middle right)
- One of the streets near the parade had shops made from houses. This was a cute candy store. (bottom)
We dressed Wade up in Kevin's shoes and hat. He was adorable, and surprisingly loved it! Until we took it away, of course.
Wade took his first steps (Dec. 11). He's already come a long way since then!
- Wade was not very excited to pose for me and wanted nothing to do with the santa hat, but he sure is cute anyway! (top)
- Sunday before Christmas all dressed up. (bottom)
Christmas eve was beautiful! We went to the park, and were wishing we had worn shorts because it was pretty hot! And, yes, the leaves are just starting to change color.
Later that night, we drove up to my cousins house and spent Christmas Eve with her family. She made an amazing dinner, and later watched the kids frost sugar cookies for Santa and open Christmas pajamas. She even got Wade a pair of pj's. So thoughtful.
Christmas morning was a lot of fun! Wade got some cars and a race track that make a LOT of noise, from grandma and grandpa N. But, at least Wade loves noise.
Later that day we went over to a friends for a fancy dinner. It was a lot of fun, and they set up a big gate so we didn't have to worry about the kiddos. Although at one point, it got really quiet. We checked on them, and they were gone. Wade had opened the screen to the sliding door and snuck out onto the patio. Of course, the other followed him out. boys...
We got together with my cousin, Sarah, and her family and took turns taking pictures of each others families. She's a great photographer. They turned out awesome!
