IDAHO

We left behind the beautiful peaks of Grand Teton National Park this morning and headed around the mountains for our first ski day of the season (and probably one of the only). Grand Targhee outside of Driggs, ID (but the ski resort is actually located in Wyoming) was the place to be with a 70 inch base and 6 new inches in 24 hours. Unfortunately....it rained this morning so our day wasn't quite what we had hoped but we made due on our rented K2 skis and did as many runs as our roadtrip legs could handle. It was nice to just be on the snow and finally use the ski gear we've been hauling around for 4 1/2 weeks!

And tonight we've had a special treat. Our dear friend, who is known as Reverend Klingler to many of you, is from Idaho Falls and his parents own and run a beautiful Inn. It's located on the Snake River and the setting and Inn itself are amazing. And that is where we will be spending the night. http://www.idahoblueheron.com/. What a nice change after so many nights of camping and cheap hotels. It's fabulous.

We are truly on the way home now and more than anything, we are soooo excited to see Peeka in just a few short days (I know, I know...she's just a dog). A few nights in Boise and then we'll be heading to Portland...

We recently had family photos taken in the Columbia Gorge by a wonderful couple who travel around the world with their two kids taking pictures. I just love how they turned out!

Since my last post, a lot has happened in our household.  We took our first camping trip of the year to Silver Falls State Park and survived!  Cora even got to try smores for the first time.   Edie turned 1 on June 4th and just a few weeks before took her first ambulance rider to the ER due to an infection - ugh!  She's fine now...thankfully. We figure it's our first of many trips to the ER with two very busy little girls.  (On a side note, Cora thought riding in the ambulance was really fun!) I came down with a ridiculous case of Poison Oak that was awful for about three weeks and continues to haunt me.  It seems I'm quite allergic!  Thankfully, no one else got it.  Dave drove himself to the ER in the middle of the night for an emergency appendicectomy that ended up being (and still is) more complicated than normal because of the scar tissue left in his stomach from the car accident.  That was a few weeks ago and his...
