Bretty's new bike
Today was a BIG day for Brett. We got him a Strider balance bike. They are the coolest bikes that don't have any pedals and teach two year olds how to balance. Brett was getting frustrated on a tricycle because he couldn't figure out the pedals. Our neighbor had one of these balance bikes and Brett loved riding it, we looked into it and they really are the best way to teach kids how to ride a bike.
Jeff hid the bike in Brett's crib and we told Brett it was time to take a nap. He headed to his room and was heading towards the crib when he saw the bike. He said "I found bike in da crib". He was all smiles and elated for many hours. He rode his bike all around the house all day. He kept saying "I found bike in crib" and then snicker like it was a funny joke.

Snowshoeing at R mountain
Saturday was beautiful weather. We went with family on a hike up R mountain in snowshoes. It was a blast. The best was running down and jumping of cornices. Thanks for taking the pictures James.
Brett had a great time in the backpack. They even crashed a few times and he never whined once. Near the end of the hike Jeff and Brett were in the rear and Brett started to whisper in Jeff's ear "go daddy, go go." They started off and we all raced to the parking lot. It was Jeff and Brett vs James, until James face planted in the snow. When we made it home and got out of the car Brett yelled, "yay, did it." He was so proud.

Our February thus far...
We took a trip to Utah to see Hailee and Derek. It was so awesome to see them and hang out. We played scrabble every night and watched movies. Of course, me and Hails were out cold during the movies, but that's typical Allen girls when a movie is on and it's past 8:30pm. Brett just loves Derek so much, he even has named the color brown Derek.
Cabin at Island Park
We spent a weekend at the cabin in Island Park, just our little family. The driveway hadn't been plowed but Yota (Jeff's truck) trudged through 3 feet of snow and we made it...barely, we were nearing the red zone on the RPMs. It was so relaxing and nice! Our weekend in pictures:
Dantzel woke up early one morning and Jeff kindly got her and took her downstairs. When Brett and I finally woke up this is how we found them. So cozy.
