Merry Christmas

This year both of our families rented an amazing house up Croy Canyon in Hailey, Idaho. It was so fabulous to celebrate Christmas and my dad's birthday with everyone (minus Shauna- we missed you). We spent the week snowshoeing, skiing, eating delicious food, playing games, watching movies, and cruising around Ketchum and Hailey.
Christmas morning was a bit chilly and dark, due to the massive power outage that half of Idaho experienced. Luckily, the house had a wood burning stove to keep us toasty. Once the sun came up, we showed Addie all her gifts from Santa and the family. Addie was showered with gifts from everyone including a custom made rocking horse from Grandad Riley, custom painted piggy bank from Uncle Dan, Mommy and Me set for her babies, lots of clothes and books.
As always, time goes way too fast when we are back in Idaho. We love being there and get caught up in the moment. We didn't get to see all of our friends, but we are thankful for the time that we spent with the Churchills and Fredbacks. Addie and I had a great time with Davina and her adorable kids - Owen and Hadley. We look forward to our next visit in Idaho.
