Winter wonder land

Last Tuesday and Wednesday, we got a HUGE snow storm that I don't think people were prepared for. We knew there was supposed to be a chance of snow, but we weren't expecting to have a big, wet, heavy snow. It was beautiful and peaceful and so fun to watch come down. It snowed for pretty much two days straight! I went out and measured Wednesday before I headed out for the day and it measured 8 inches and was still snowing. Christian measured in another spot that day and said we had around 11 inches! What was even more crazy was that by Saturday, it was almost 60 degrees and melted all away! I'm a little sad that we didn't even have time to play in it because it would have been perfect for making snowmen!

Some of our icicles.

This was the cooler that was left outside. It was almost covered to the top!

Our winter wonderland!

 Wednesday, Travis, Landon and I made a trip over to Powell to pick up Carson from Grandma Foulger's house. Tuesday afternoon, he got to go with Grandma Foulger to Billings to pick up Megan from the airport. She was flying in on the 11pm flight, so he got to go and do some birthday shopping since grandma Foulger will be out of town on his birthday and go out to eat at the place of his choice. He chose to eat at Texas Roadhouse...yum. His favorite part was going to the new Scheels store to bowl, do some pitching and walk around and check things out. He got two really cool under armor shirts (that he's really been wanting), and cool spy guy kit and a stocking cap. He spent the night at grandma's Tuesday night and Wednesday, we hung out with Butts and helped grandma get food ready for Thanksgiving. Grandma had some crafts for the boys to do while they were there and we were working on cooking. It has kind of become tradition for the boys to make place setting cards of some sort for Thanksgiving so they did that too.

Travis worked really hard on the place setting cards for everyone.

All our finished turkeys and owls for everyone.

They were so cute.

Butts helping the boys make some Christmas ornaments for the tree.

Wednesday night, All of my sister-in-laws (and soon to be sister-in-law), mother-in-law, grandma Dorothy and I went out to dinner at El Tap as kind of a bridal shower for Renee. We ate and then had her open gifts. It was fun to be together with just the ladies for an evening!
