Erik, Lindsey and Conner left Friday morning with Gramers and Papa Morris to go up north (Pinetop) to cut down a Christmas tree. Of course I got up at 4:30am before they left and hit a few stores (Black Friday) catching a few deals! I stayed back with Carly and Cole, we stayed with Nana (Erik's grandma, that lives with his parents, she has dementia). 
Sadly for Lindsey she got sick on the way up (not sure if it was something she ate or car sick, probably a little of both). She spent quite awhile in the bathroom, then fell asleep for about 4 hours. Luckily she was fine by morning. 
Conner got to see, feel, and play in snow for the first time! He was so excited. Hung around town Friday, then went up by Sunrise Ski resort Saturday to find a tree. 
Conner one happy kiddo!
He is such a good boy.

Lindsey and Conner trying to stay warm. Conner where is your jacket?
Saturday morning, breakfast time! Conner had a cheese crisp, for BREAKFAST? (They ate 3 meals at this Mexican Restaurant (EL Farol.)
Conner, Erik and Lindsey trying to stay warm. We didn't have any snow clothes for Conner so his clothes fit really big! Erik's Uncle Jimmy and his kids came too. Lindsey and Conner liked that, he has Grand kids their ages.
Absolutely GORGEOUS!
Look at all that snow! Conner walking, Lindsey and Gramers.
Conner's clothes were really big. What a good sport. Luckily one of his friends had some snow boots for him. I am glad his feet stayed warm and dry.

Conner's clothes were really big. What a good sport. Luckily one of his friends had some snow boots for him. I am glad his feet stayed warm and dry. As for Carly, Cole, Nana and I we did just fine. We stayed warm and enjoyed each other's company. Nana was a good sport as I drug her around to several stores. She was sweet and helpful! Cole loves her! (above picture taken May 2008 - Nana and Tina). I couldn't believe I didn't have a camera to take pictures of our fun weekend.
Carly got to have Stephanie (Tina's only girl - Erik's sister) spend the night. The girls had a blast. They played, did crafts, colored, made cookies and kept each other busy. (above picture was taken summer 2005)
Friday night Cole did wake up at 2:30 am with a horrible cough. I gave him a breathing treatment and finally got him back to sleep around 4am. Saturday night Erik took him in to our dr.'s after hours office. Dr. said it is all asthma related, ugh! Time to do breathing treatments every 3 hours, fun!

Every 3 hours....bless your heart. How fun for the kids to go to get the tree! It gives me the chills just looking at these pictures brrrrr!
Sounds like a fun weekend! Sorry about the sick kids. Sid got sick from our vacation due to the smoke from the California fires...we are still fighting it!
Good Luck!
I didn't know you dealt with asthma, too! For the first time ever, Allyson DIDN'T have an attack in the cold Utah air. Maybe there's hope!
How fun. I'm feeling their pain about being cold. We have actually had to start BUYING warm clothes. UGGGH. Boots, coats, gloves, scarves. What did we get ourselves into? I do have to say it is kind of nice to be able to get some cute sweaters though.
You have such a cute family! How fun to be in the snow! It looks like so much fun...we are going to try to hit the snow after Christmas. My kids can't wait. :)
What a fun weekend! LOVE the trees! Great photos!
