Idaho Trip!

So after Christmas we decided to make a trip up to Idaho to see my family up there! We went up on Friday afternoon. Of course Ethan sees all the snow and wants to immediatly get his snow gear out. So first thing after arriving there we got Ethan and Cambree in their snow gear and outside we went. Of course being the budget mother that I am got there snow gear a size bigger so that it would last a couple of years, so they both looked like little marshmallows like Ralph's brother on a "Christmas Story".
It was hilarious to watch Cambree walk around and try to climb the steps. Cambree was quite leary about the whole rolling in the snow thing. She kept walking back and forth on the plowed driveway and then stick her love in the snow bank every little while and got real excited that snow was on her glove. Ethan had no fear, as usual, and jumped right into the snow. He was everwhere. He especially loved picking up a big handful of snow and throwing it up in the air. Todd helped Ethan, Micah, and Chelsea make a snow fort. Ethan would throw little snow balls at Micah and then Micah would pretend it hit him and would fall to the ground in 'pretend' agony. Ethan would laugh with glee thinkin he was all clever and all. Even Grandpa Scott came out and threw a couple snow balls. Ethan squealed with delight when he would get so close to hitting Grandpa with a snow ball. Ethan even turned on his mom. He tried to hit me with a couple of snow balls so I had to hand my camera off to show him who was boss. Unfortunatly I did not have any snow gear on and Ethan beat his mom! I'll get him next time. Everyone had so much fun!
After we went inside we had of course more presents to open!! The kids had fun opening there presents and McKadee loved helping Cambree open hers. (Although I think Cambree wasn't to sure about McKadee helping her.)
Cambree loved having McKadee to play with although neither of them were too fond of sharing. But what one year old is? They had with fun with their dollies and pushed them around in strollers everywhere. Ethan was Micah's little shadow all weekend! Thanks Micah for being Ethan's little buddy! He is still talking about all the fun he had with his friend Micah or sometimes "Mikee" as Ethan pronounces it sometimes.
We went over and played a little WII at Brandi and Jared's. Brandi challenged me to some boxing and I couldn't turn down a challenge. I am still sore from kickin butt at boxing!! Ok...so maybe there was a little more of kickin MY butt but still quite a fun workout. Todd and Jared jammed out with little Guitar Hero! Ethan enjoed going over to Aunt Brandi's house. He of course got spoiled with candy canes and gummy worms. He still has two of them that he is still carrying around the house and putting them in special places so that Cambree doesn't get em. I guess he is saving them for some special reason. Thanks Aunt Brandi for the yummy treats!
We had a lot of fun playing in the snow, going sledding, shopping, visiting the new Rexburg Temple, and going out to eat with Dad & Tami, Brandi & Jared, and little Kayden! Thanks everyone for letting us come and visit! Thanks to Shelby for giving up her room for us to stay in. We hope to see everyone again soon.
