Thunder Hat

Yesterday in the car I told Asher, "Oh wow, it looks like it's going to rain!" Asher responds, "We should have brought our rain hats and our thunder hats too." I said, "A thunder hat? What is a thunder hat?" He says, "Yeah, it covers your ears so the noise doesn't scare you!" That's actually not a bad idea!

We're back!

We just got back from a three-week trip to Park City for my step-brother John's wedding. I took the boys with me and Moises flew in for a weekend and then again for the wedding. We had a really nice time going to the ranch, hiking with Grandpa Jim, fishing, visiting friends and family and just relaxing!

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Kucera!

Dani and John had a gorgeous wedding in Deer Valley surrounded by mountains and wild flowers. The ceremony was so heart-felt and sweet; the dancing afterwards was quite a party!

More of Park City

Here are some pics I took of the fog one morning from my parents' balcony.


Elie has been teething and he gets really clingy, wanting to be held all the time. If you tried to put him down, he would wrap his legs around you and hold on for dear life!

Moises and Asher rode the Alpine slide up at the Park City ski resort. Asher loved it and wanted to go again and again!
Jan, Moises, Dale and Asher went fishing one morning and caught three trout and one bass! The next night we grilled them for dinner. Asher was very proud!

Grandpa Jim

While visiting, we were able to spend a lot of time with Grandpa Jim. We went hiking, fishing, and hung out at his house.

Post Ranch

At the beginning of our stay we spent some time at my parents' ranch in Idaho. This place is truly special. Not only is it absolutely peaceful and gorgeous, but there is so much stuff for the kids to do. Asher helped Bampa plant some trees by digging holes with the tractor, rode around the property with the four-wheeler, fed the chickens (Elie loved this!), and collected their eggs each day.
