Dance Party USA

Apparently Keillor really likes the Black Eyed Peas (I think it's the "Philly", but he can't say it yet). We had a dance party that he and Maya (and a little of myself) enjoyed for about 4 minutes. I never realized how tired you can get from just dancing!


We finally got our big snow at the very end of March. 14 inches one day, followed by 4 the next. It is a good thing that we did, as things were dry and the flowers were starting to think that it was time to bloom. Silly flowers! Spring is for snow! We also got to enjoy the making of Lisa the Snow woman. We used a little food coloring to spice up the outfit, but it was great being out in the snow. Maya also really enjoyed making snow angels. I think this is the one picture of K smiling while in the bear suit. K didn't enjoy the suit quite as much as we enjoyed taking pictures of him in it.

Utah March 21










Well, we left the kids and headed off to Utah for some Canyoneering. What fun we had. An easy day hiking up and down Ding and Dang canyon, and then a fun day dropping into Music Canyon into the Muddy Creek. Boy was that fun. A little rope work, down climbing, and singing in the Music Box area where your voice bounced around. Then wading through low 40 degree water, with our legs looking as if they were sunburned, but it was just that they were freezing cold. My favorite part of the trip? Coming around the corner and seeing 6 wild horses in the road. What beautiful animals they were!
