jo and lo

jo's skiing and logan's walking

hot chocolate and marshmallows were johanna's favorite part of the day.

logan can't be stopped now.... walking everywhere.

its a whole new level of cleaning and eliminating temptations. whew!

see the trail sign?

johanna's jaunt is the site of her first ski day!

here we come TURNER!


happy little ski bunny.

life around here...

yeah, this picture is witnessing logan's first trespass onto one of johanna's trains/paths.

logan's favorite hangout.

the lower windows in the living room are just right for him to hang on to and look outside. he'll stay there for a long time, commenting on all he sees.

johanna helping dad at work again.

this is the sexiest photo i've ever seen. i love a hard working man.

johanna watching dad at work....

johanna is showing you moose poop on our trail.

logan having fun with the pans!

i decided the potatoe party needed some more recognition. she was so proud of these potatoes!

johanna's jaunt

pop put up fun signs to find along the way of our trail...

johanna loves to play chase around the living room and dining room. its a nightly ritual with her dad. she always goes clockwise and cannot play quietly.... she tries not to squeal with excitement, but ... cannot do it.
this day, jo wanted logan to chase her, dad obliged.

this is johanna in her naughty spot. while having rest time in the afternoon, she decided to make a mess in mom and dad's room and picked 30 green tomatoes. that's what's in her purses. "apples, mom" she said when i asked her what they were.

fun cleaning job aye? she sat there and helped me clean for two days, the little stinker.

there's been a sighting, now caught on film, of a rare mountain tiger! feeds on candy.


yep, johanna is so excited for halloween, she couldn't contain it to just one night.

this was our hike to chase lake.

she jumped in EVERY mud puddle along the way.

pop and gigi : western tour 2009

logan got to hang out with pop a lot.

logan is a crawling machine. pulling himself up mama's leg most of the day. he can pull him self up to standing at 8 months. maybe he'll beat johanna's mark of walking before 10 months old. we are raising some strong skiing, hiking kiddos. johanna hiked for 3 hours one day to take daddy lunch on the upper property. yippee!

we had logan dedicated at our church while gigi and pop were here. johanna is very comfortable here and was hamming it up on daddy's shoulders, being quite animated.

johanna's favorite hiking attire, pretty dresses and her hiking shoes. pop helped us figure out our trail, loop is 1/2 a mile long.
