Snowy Winter Pictures

The snow has been falling for weeks, and at times it seems like it's never going to stop. We've definitely gotten more this year than last year, or it seems that way every time I have to go out and shovel the driveway. Last year at Thanksgiving we took some pictures with the Clayburn family, but they were autumn-like and sunny, but this year we had to trudge out through the snow to get it done. Here are a few I had on my phone.

Even Dexter wanted in on the glamor shots...

Drax just wants someone to throw the ball. Please. Anyone. Just throw it.

Pumpkin Spice Month

October meant Halloween, fall leaves, and a tenth birthday for one of these boys! Here are some of the pics from back then...

Birthday... pancakes?

Henry Ford at the school wax museum...

Three Forks pumpkin patch!

Farrah has never really been fond of free hugs anyway...

The Fall of Montana

Fall came and went as it always does, and winter is already here, as well as the end of the year. But we did a few things here and there this fall. The boys headed back to school again, Adam ran in some cross country meets, and we did a little disc golf here and there. So I guess there were some busy moments...

Drax was sad he didn't get to go back to school...

Paul was excited to attend his brother's cross-country meet...

I went cave hiking at Craters of the Moon National Monument while on a work trip to Boise. Thankfully, more of the roof didn't cave in while I was there.

Adam violin marched in the Griz Homecoming Parade!

Backwoods disc gold up at Lolo Hot Springs and Lolo School...

Battle, Battle, Hit it to Seattle!

The last stop on our end of summer trip was to Seattle, a place I hadn't been in 20+ years and the kids definitely hadn't been. We took the ferry from Bremerton for an awesome entrance to the city, and used the city pass to check out the aquarium, the Space Needle, and the zoo. We topped it off with a couple of games to see the Cleveland Guardians take on the Seattle Mariners. Though the Guardians didn't win, it was a beautiful ballpark and an all-around great trip!

Had a great time at the pop culture museum... Paul became king apparently.

And Nolan rose from the dead...
