Christmas Vacation

Christmas seemed to fly by this year. We made the trek home the weekend before Christmas and headed back to Boise the weekend after. Got some good family time in. Good thing I guess because we don't know when we will be back that way. We hope everyone had a great Christmas. Here are some of the pics from the holiday.

Close up of Joshua, Aunt Dawn's foster son. He kept crawling closer and closer to the camera.

Bailey got to try on Lucy's bells.

Bialy felt left out so she had to try on the bells too. They didn't quite fit her as well.

Lucy sleeping under the Christmas tree.

This is beautiful Azalea. She is Hazen's cousins daughter. She got a new broom for Christmas.

Aubree went to her mom's work and got her picture taken with a few of the residents.

Snow and Fun!

Same old story. Aub is still working two days a week and Hazen is closing in on a couple jobs. We have been spending our time finding new and exciting ways to not spend money. I know it sounds like bushels of fun. Seriously though, we have been enjoying ourselves and the eventual end of our vacation time. Lucy continues to keep us on our toes. We have gone on a few drives in the area and had a great time. We also got out and watched the WSU/Gonzaga bball game at a local bar. It was a lot of fun as there were a lot of cougs around. Here are a few pics.

Exploring around Boise: The Swan Falls dam on the Snake River was a beautiful sight and a fun drive. Aub got herself into some trouble (see video clip on this post)

Aubree and Lucy went for a walk above our house to get a view of Boise covered in snow!

Looking back down at our pad.

Lucy figuring out she can watch things out the window. She spends many hours just watching squirrels, joggers, and dogs go by our window. Squirrels are her favorite.

The new "choke" collar not really doing its job. Don't worry, it sounds much worse than it really is.

While down at Swan Fall's dam Aubree and Lucy wanted to run through a flock of Geese. Against Hazen's recommendation, they went and this is what happened.
