A Day with Grandpa

Today was the day we have been waiting for for so long, it was a day spent outside!!! It finally warmed up enough to take the boys out and let them roll, run, and eat snow. They had a ball!! Tallon was able to spend the night with Grandpa and went prepared to do some snowmobiling and coyote hunting. Tyler and I bundled up the twins and went down this morning to join them. Tallon was wet and cold by the time the brothers and I made it out, so off to the house for some hot coco and a warm fire he went. The twins, cousin Clancy and I were able to go coasting for about an hour before the cold hit us. Orrin really came out of his shell, which was so much fun. He squealed and laughed and giggled, which is rare for him. He is my sober child and it was a delight to hear how much fun he was having. Vivin is always full of enjoyment and coasting fit him to a tee. Once we got off the hill, the twins were not about to go in the house, so Grandpa took them for a tour of the barnyard. They saw the baby pups and calves, and were so happy to be out.




Tyler finally had to make the boys come in. A pig stick would have come in real handy at this point. He would steer one twin just to have the other sneak back to play with the animals. It was to funny to watch. He finally had to pick them up and pack them to the house. The whole time they were both just a bawling.

It was truly a wonderful day. I am so thankful the boys are healthy and big enough this year to enjoy the outdoors. A little bit of sunshine can go a long way and we were in desperate need of some. The best part of winter is finally having it warm up enough to enjoy its beauty and fun. I am really looking forward to the warm days ahead.
