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!

Cora and the boys

Dave's friends, Scotty, Ryan and Danny, have been taking good care of us this week. We're thinking about asking them to move in long-term! Ryan is currently making us a fancy breakfast and Danny is still trying to find us the perfect Subaru Forrester to purchase.

Cora Biedel Nelson

We welcomed Cora at 5:41pm on Saturday, July 18th after 12 hours of labor. Thanks to the help of our wonderful doula, Carissa, we were able to stay at home for the first 6 hours of labor. Our nurses and midwife at Kaiser Sunnyside were wonderful and helped Lindsay get through the labor and delivery drug-free. We came home today and are already lost in the world of poopy diapers, feeding and getting sleep when we can. Oh the thrill of sleep deprivation! We'll be in touch when we get our heads above water.
