Fall Break

Well fall break has come and gone. The kids had 2 weeks off of school. It is hard to believe that they started back in the beginning of August, and here it is almost November. We enjoyed the time off. We took one week to vacation up in the mountains near Wyoming. We rented a cabin and the first day we hiked and enjoyed the relatively warm air. The next morning we woke up to snow!!!!!!! We spent much of the rest of the week in the hot tub, playing cards/board games, and watching Harry Potter movies. We enjoyed playing in the woods and climbing all of the massive rocks. At one point we were out on a deserted trail and went off to climb this huge collection of rocks. When we got to the top MBJ said, "I just saw an animal run into that cave". I asked him what it looked like and he said "It has 4 legs", he also said it was as big as a dog, so we hurried out of there :) There are mountain lions and bears and all kinds of things here whose den I wouldn't want to wander into.

We took Sunny with us and she really enjoyed chasing chipmunks from rock to rock. I swear they were taunting her all week. We didn't see any bears or moose, but we did hear coyotes in the evening. We were advised not to let Sunny out by herself in the evening or morning, she might wander into something unfriendly...yikes!!
