Our Family spent New Years doing two memorable activities.
Monty took all 4 boys camping in Lytle Creek. They had such a great time putting up their tent, setting up their sleeping bags, eating hot dogs, making smores, and hanging out by the fire. Monty took such great care of them. Monty said Kyle was funny because he was really worried about bears. When Monty told them it was time for prayer Kyle got all scared, "Why do we have to pray? Is it so we don't get eaten by a bear?" We think he has watched a little to much discovery channel. Kory was scared too, but Monty was able to calm his fears and they all slept peacefully...well, everyone but Monty!:)
This morning he woke up and took them too the Creek. They all enjoyed throwing rocks into the creek and making little boats to float down the Creek.
Five handsome campers! Monty helping Tyler sail his boatTrey enjoying throwing rocks into the creek.Thanks Monty!! You rock!!
I spent the New Year in Fillmore with my parents, brother Greg, and Grandparents. It was a very special trip. My grandfather is back in the hospital and as he's 86 in just a few days we know our time with him is limited. My parents planned a trip to see him and I knew I had to go. The trip was wonderful. We thought Grandpa might enjoy some Sparkling Apple Cider to ring in the new year and man did he!! We all toasted with him and enjoyed seeing a smile on his face.

I am so glad you got to go see your grandparents. Must have been a very special trip -- and that was so sweet of Monty to take the kids camping while you were away! I bet they had such a great time -- memories that won't soon be forgotten. What a great dad!
Ha! Lucky you. Jared and I went down on Jan 3rd and Grandpa was sleeping the whole time!! We only stayed for about 45 min. as nothing Grandma did could keep him awake. But it was still fun to see them!
