Who said it Ain't Purdy in Wyoming?

Alex got all of us to go on an adventure (which usually means drive until we get lost and try to find something to see on the detour). But this time - it was pretty cool. We saw the Flaming Gorge and drove on some back roads and found this random pod of ice fishermen. I've never seen guys fishing on ice before - and these guys were really into the sport and had professional drills and everything.





Alex taking the yappers out on the lake - and two seconds later, Zoë fell down.



It looks like Zoë pushed my last button...actually I was just swinging her around, but it looks like that ice fisherman in the background is running to the rescue.

I miss cold weather :( You're probably thinking I'm crazy, but I envy you your winter :) It sounds like you guys are having a good time, wish we could see you.

Haaa!!! Laughing at the picture! I was just in a store today and my little angel threw a tantrum (you know how intense they can get.) The way Ezra was carrying on, the sales personnel thought I was kidnapping him! Ah, life. Looks like a fun trip.

Oh, I wish the pioneers could have crossed when it was frozen like that!! It really is beautiful there!

It sounds like you will get into great shape. My little one was kicked-out of preschool last week because he had a sensory overload moment and attacked lol! They didn't think it was too funny. Give me a call when you can.
