Island Park Trip










This weekend Evan and I did a little road trip to Island Park, Idaho (just below Yellowstone) for a snowmobiling adventure. It was great! Our lodge was right on the Snake River with incredible views. There were hardly any other visitors at the lodge so we basically had the undivided attention of the staff. The food was truly amazing! The cook was a little black man from Louisiana with a true gift. Evan did some male bonding with him over "Gator" on the Sci Fi channel; obviously a guy thing. We had a nice snowstorm blow in the evening after we arrived, which was kind enough to stop by 9:30 am so as not to interfere with our snowmobiling. We set out on a 20 mile ride to Mesa Falls through Targhee National Forest and didn't see another human being for a good two hours. Wow! was it ever beautiful! Evan is hooked! We are definitely going back with the rest of the family next year...or maybe sooner. We'd like to put together a summer rafting trip with any other willing family members. Think about it folks! :-)

Driving the Frog-mobile



Okay Elders, your dad wanted me to show you the funky Honda Element I won (for a month) from my work, along with cash and a gas card. It's a fun car to drive; sort of like a green ice cream truck! :-) Actually, the more I drive it the more I like it. At the end of the year they'll give away a new Element for someone to keep, until then they just pass along this one to someone new each month. Fun. Fun.

Wishful Thinking


We're not quite there yet, but we don't have too long to wait before we start seeing a little green.

Our Favorite College Art Teacher



Danielle working with some students on their funky art projects. Hopefully she won't kill me for sharing the picture of the baby bump!...but I'm sooooo excited be a grandma that I just can't stop myself!
