February

I have been a little behind in blog land but here goes. So far this February we have celebrated Valentines day with our tradition of getting pizza from Papa Murphys in the shape of a heart. I then cut the pepperonis into heart shapes as well. We celebrate Valentines as a family and the kids each got their gifts when they woke up. It was fun to see their faces light up. Cory got me a shirt, flowers and movie gift card. I got him candy, golf passes, and golf accessories. We had a great night with a candle lit table,

heart champagne glasses, and our heart pizza. Yummy. The kids liked eating in the dark and it was fun. That weekend we drove up to Idaho and spent the weekend with my family. We stayed at Mel and Phil's house and Friday night we ate at Buffaloes in Idaho Falls with the family and my Grandma Betty Mead. We try to visit her every chance we get. She is quite the funny grandma. It was fun to eat and visit. Saturday, Cory, Mel, Phil, Ryan, and Alex got up and all went to Grand Targhee ski resort in Jackson Wy.


They all went skiing while I stayed home with kids and we went to spend the day at Grandpa Jenn's house. Cooper took a nap, and we relaxed and talked. Cory had a great time skiing since he hasn't been since before we got married 7 years ago. He had a blast! We met the crew up at Green Canyon Hot springs in Teton for a dip in the pool and hot tub. The water is a warm 96 degrees and the hot tub is 105. Perfect warm for a winter swim. Cooper and Cayman loved that they could walk pretty far into the pool before it got deep and that it was so warm they could've stayed in forever. We then got out and roasted hotdogs on the fire and ate a fun dinner with the family. I wish I would have gotten pics, but I didn't. We then left in the middle of a snowstorm that you literally couldn't see the car in front of you. The wind was blowing and snow was falling and a 30 minute drive ended up being over an hour. It was pretty intense. We made it back safe and we all pooped out and went to bed. Sunday we just hung out with family and then headed back to Utah. We had a great fun weekend.

That Monday we went to The Gallivan Ice rink and Cory took the kids ice skating. Cooper was done after a few minutes and Cayman had daddy all to herself.

They went around for about an hour and had a few Hot Chocolate breaks in between. It was pretty nice weather and not to cold. Cooper had fun running all over. We then went to Hires for dinner and we had a great family night. All in all it has been a pretty slow month. The weather has been pretty nice with not much snow so we have been spending time at the park. It is so nice to get outside. More later!
