Snowy Vacation

So, the last week we went to Driggs and Island Park and had a nice winter vacation. We spent a week in Driggs and did some skiing, sledding, watched a lot of movies, and played a lot of canasta. We had a lot of fun, then we took two days to play in Island Park. We went snowmobiling, and even took Corgin along for one of the rides. We had tons of fun. Here are a few pics from our little trip.

I had a birthday while we were in Driggs. Here I am with my cake.

We took Corgin sledding. He was so funny because he would just face plant it off the sled to eat the snow. Once he was in the snow he did little push-ups and kept putting his face in the snow to eat it. That boy likes snow!

This is how we looked when we came in from sledding. Corgin's face had to be freezing from all the face plants, but he was having a lot of fun.

This is a panaramic of the view from the windows of our cabin in Driggs. You can see the Tetons and Grand Targhee where we went skiing.


We were packing up and getting ready to leave and had to put Corgin somewhere because he was getting into everything. He was happy in this box.

This is in Island Park. We got Corgin all bundled up and took him for a little ride on the snow machine. I think he liked it because later whenever he would look out the window and see a snowmobile, he would say "vroom, vroom" and "bye, bye".

This is Big Springs where we took Corgin. Just a family shot of us enjoying our vacation.

The whole time we were gone, anytime anyone would go outside and come back in Corgin would run to the door and start eating the snow off the floor. I tried to keep him away, but he just kept going back for more, the little pill. But, he makes me laugh.

Brent (Clint's dad), Clint, and I took a ride the next day and went to the top of Two Top. This is the only place we could get out of the wind for a picture. It was a fun little ride, even though Clint's sled broke down before we made it up.

So, we had a blast and enjoyed our vacation. Thank you Mom and Dad for getting the cabin for us for the week and for the ski tickets. Thanks Brent and Kristi for letting us come bug you at the cabin and use your snow machines. We had lots of fun.

Cor-Drawer

Well, Katie got a new camera for birthday slash valentines day. So these first pitures we were just playing with the camera and Corgin always puts on his best smile for pictures.

Then last night Katie and I were making chocolates and Corgin thought that he would hang out in the Kitchen with us. Corgin did what he knows best by getting into everything including this drawer

This is where he got caught

Then laughs about it

One drawer is never enough for Corgin

Dancin' Dancin'

Corgin likes to dance and so I decided to post a video of it. He dances anytime he hears music and he is starting to spin and occasionally head bang. I love it! Sorry it is so dark =( It makes it hard to see his feet moving, but hopefully it's okay.

Happy Birthday Corgin - and Christmas too!

Corgin's Birthday!

Today Corgin turned one. I can't believe that my little boy is already a year old. Anyway, I took tons of pictures, so here are a few (at least a few compared to all I took).

So, we started by opening presents.

This one was funnest for him, I think.

He made quite a haul.

Next, it is time for the cake. We made one for him and one for the rest of us.

He's not really sure what to do here.

After a little help, he gets the hang of it.

He even gets it in his hair!

He had sooooo much fun!

Time to get cleaned up!

Notice the frosting in his nose. He'll probably have really green boogers for a week!

Christmas Eve!

This was Corgin's first Christmas present that he got to open. He had fun opening it and he loves playing with it too.

Christmas Day!

This was what Corgin got from Santa. He likes it too.

Here he is having some fun in the box full of wrapping paper.

Those are all the pictures I got of Christmas, but we had a lot of fun. We were at my parents house for Christmas day and then we celebrated with my in-laws on Sunday. We recieved so many gifts that we love and we want to thank you all! =)

Christmas Gift

This is just a quick post, but I got this for Christmas and put it up today. I'm pretty excited about it - I think it turned out well. I will post Christmas later because we aren't done celebrating it yet. And Thanks Mom!

Mommy's Little Helper

Corgin likes to help me do the dishes. This is how he helps.

We took some family pictures, so here are a few I wanted to post.

This one just makes me laugh! Taking pics with a kid is quite an experience.

Little Drummer Boy

This is what Corgin likes to do now. With a little help from Dad, of course, to put out the lids like a drum set. Also, here is another video of what he does all day. He has a little toy kaleidoscope which he puts in his mouth and walks around with all the time. He will breathe really loud out of it and sometimes make other sounds. It makes Clint and I laugh.

time for the walking shoes

Last Week

Today

Here are some pictures of what Corgin has been up to. He keeps me laughing.

He usually just pulls the pan lids out of this drawer, but this morning he decided to climb inside. What a little busy body!

This is an early Christmas present from his Grandma Merri. He loves to ride on it and push it around.

Recently Corgin has learned how to clap and he loves to play "patty-cake". He got a little distracted by the camera when we took this video, but you get the point. I love it!

all moved in . . . well, mostly!

Alright, here are some pics of our house with some furnishings. We still haven't put up most of our pictures and wall hangings, but we are getting there. I got sick and was running some fevers last week, so it slowed us down a bit. We've got all our stuff in, so it's just a matter of getting it all organized and put away. It's nice to be in finally after all the work!

This is the entryway - not much different from the last pictures.

This is the living/family room. We bought a couch before we moved and it wasn't delivered until the week we left, so we hadn't even used it yet. We were excited to finally pull it out of the boxes.



This is the dining room and a little Corgin helping Mom take pictures.

Corgin's room.

Here is the main bath.

Corgin loves vacuums! He's riding it here and whenever I run it he has to chase it. It makes me laugh! =)

My kitchen sink is way deep, so Corgin takes his bath in it sometimes. Here is one of those times. I like it because he can't splash near as much here as he does in the bathtub.

We have finished the master bathroom and bedroom, but the battery on my camera died before I got those pics. Those will come next post, I guess.
