Videos

I posted these on Facebook, but for those that aren't on Facebook I couldn't resist posting them here too.

This is something he's been doing recently.  Dean and I find it hilarious!  He'll walk across the room doing this, then stop in his tracks and looks at us.  He's a silly boy!!

This one is just funny.  He looks like he's trying to tell me something really important!  It's amazing at how much he's grown up recently.  He's definitely not a baby anymore and is coming into his own.  The funniest part is watching him watch these videos.  He gets so excited and laughs and laughs!

Idaho/Bear Lake Trail

On Sunday, Dean and I wanted to get out of the house, so we went for yet another drive.  We decided, since Jack hasn't been to Idaho to venture up north.  We were headed to Pocatello (for NO reason in particular, but we did have Jack in the Box while there LOL).  On the way, we stopped at a rest stop (shocker) and I got some brochures of things to do.  Dean saw a scenic byway that takes you around Bear Lake from Pocatello, so we went that way.  It was neat!   We went through Lava Springs and we stopped and took some gorgeous pics of Bear Lake.  Dean and I had been there before, but not with all the snow.  

Here are some pictures from our adventure!

Our little Cookie Monster!  (I put this in for Nana)

Somewhere in Idaho

Bear Lake (pretty!!!)

Jack in the snow (not too impressed)

Us goofing off (we never have anyone around to take our picture when we're out, so I've resorted to taking them myself.  Not too bad, if I do say so myself!)

Flaming River Gorge

On Wednesday I had plans to meet a friend for lunch, but she got sick (hope you feel better T), so Dean decided he didn't want to stay home all day.  So, we decided to take a drive out to see the Flaming River Gorge.  Dean has wanted to go see it since we lived here last time.  We had a great time!  I was far and we left later in the day than we should have, but it was fun nevertheless.  The only bummer is I wish I would have taken a picture of the big pink dinosaur we saw in Vernal.  How often do you get to see a pink dinosaur?  (I guess everyday if you live in Vernal).  LOL!  I'd say next time I'll take one, but not sure how many more times my travels will take me to Vernal, Utah.  

We also saw a ton of wildlife.  Well, we saw a ton of deer, but that was more wildlife than we ever saw when we went to Yellowstone.  And Jack got to go through his 6th state.  We'll add Wyoming to his list of Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada and Utah.  Here are some pictures.  We have a ton more, but these are the better ones.  

The sign that explains how the gorge got it's name.

The gorge from the dam.

Bridge on the way to the dam.

Me and Jack

This is a weird, neat light we saw.  We figure it was a plane, but it glowed in the sky and was going too fast at too sharp of an angle to really be a plane. 

We're not really sure what this is, but it was really pretty in person.  It was getting dark, so the picture is way dark.  It's a body of water frozen over and the shallower ends are melting.  

The big H question

Lately Dean and I have been asked the big H question.  What's the big H?  Haircut.  So, I thought I'd put on here our opinion and when that's going to happen.  Yes, we know his hair is getting longer, but it's not that long.  Dean and I have talked about the haircut and fortunately we're both in the same boat.  The answer to when is...not any time soon, so stop asking!  :)  Neither of us have the heart to cut his hair yet, or the desire.  I personally think his hair is gorgeous, so I'm definitely not cutting it soon.  The thought breaks my heart.  I posted pics.  Look at the beautiful curls he has!  Who would want to cut those off?

(I combed his hair right after his bath.  He looks kinda dorky and he's obviously not amused.  I won't be doing that again).

Don't bother me Mom, I'm reading!

Jack decided he wanted to read the Ensign too!

Pictures...as promised!

It snowed sooo bad here today!  Worst than we've ever seen it here.  It was pretty though, but one day I was very glad I didn't have to go to work or drive anywhere in it.  

Obviously I found all my camera parts.  I also took some pics of Jack.  

Ok, I admit I must be Blogger stupid because all the pictures I upload don't come on the blog in the same order!  Oh well.  Sort of makes my comparison pictures harder to see.

Jack and Daddy

(I thought this picture was cute)

Here's what the outside looked like about 2:30 this afternoon.

This was about an hour before.  You can't really tell in the photo, but it was significantly less snow than the first picture.

Jack just chillin' in Daddy's truck.

My cutie pie!

  

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope everyone had a nice Valentine's Day!  We did.  We stayed at home because it snowed all day and lots of it!  So, we decided to stay in.  I wish I could find my camera battery charger.  Jack looked so cute in the shirt Nana gave him!  It says "I'm Irresistable", which he is.  We're still doing well here.  Still trying to get all our stuff settled.  Soon, I hope!  Hopefully soon I'll find the camera charger and take some recent pics.  Jack is getting so big!

We're Here!

We made it to Utah safe and sound!  We're been busy getting settled, so I haven't had much time to post.  Jack is adjusting ok, he's a little cranky at night, but that's expected.  He's been quite the little adventurer!  He's been exploring his new surroundings and getting into everything!  Hopefully I'll find the camera soon and post pics!
