Curls

These pictures are for all of you that knew Isaiah as a toddler with light colored and fine hair. As he has grown older, they are dark, course and curly. He has chosen to let them grow since and so yesterday I took him to Intrigue where Trina gave him a good head scrub and trimmed off the dead ends. Lookin good now!


I squeezed a smile out of him


The theme for the boys over Christmas break is Star Wars.

Train ride



This was the bridge we walked to before heading back into town. It was sooo cold. We had taken
sandwiches along but those were eaten back in the train.

This picture gives you a view of the engine, the smoke, and how close we got to the edge of the moutain. The view was awesome, but I wasn't able to capture it with my little camera. When we went up the moutain, the smoke was really black.


We traveled in 1st class. A 1st for most of us. The train was not very full so we got plenty of attention. We were able to go to other cars, including the open car, which we often did, but it was too cold to stay out for long.

Note the car out the window. There were 3 guys with their big camera's that were stalking us the entire trip. Almost every crossway, they were out with their camera's. Our attendant said they had to cross private land to get to some of the areas.

Go to Carol's Blog later, to get some better pictures of our train ride. http://carolmil.blogspot.com/

Then we ended our day with some pampering.

39th Anniversary for Carol & Norm

Just so all of you know that I'm not only on vacation with my sisters. Anna, Wil and myself, joined Carol and Norm on their vacation to Durango Colorado to celebrate their 39th Anniversary. These pictures are a few of many pictures and this computer isn't letting me put them in the order I want. Our Mesa Verde adventure was on our 2nd day and we did a wonderful hike. It was a bit muddy at times and made our hearts race pretty fast, due to the altitude of course, not our age!
Our 1st day was spent driving the Million Dollar Highway, up to Silverton, Uray and the Teluride Ski Resort. We were told we could get a free gondola ride there. Norm said no one gives anything away for free and said if they are free, he would buy our dinner. Needless to say, it ended up costing him 5 dinners that night.

Our 1st night at a local mexican restaurant. Lots of laughter!

And then off to the hot tub outside, where the air was cold.

Carol & Norm-married 39 years!
