Luke's new hat and gloves

Great-Grammy Williamson got Luke some nice gloves and a warm hat for his birthday. He loves the hat and it's so cute on him. He doesn't even try to rip it off like he does all his other hats. Anyway, he's pretty cute.

Real close ups

Ash was here yesterday morning and took some close ups of Luke. They're pretty cute so here they are. Thanks Ash!

Fun in Lego Land

Austin had a little too much fun with Derek and Cassidy on Sunday...playing legos. And if you didn't know, BYU's football team is ranked 23rd!

New Haircut and a Butterfinger

Luke's hair was getting very long and out of control so Austin cut it while I was shopping. Luke wouldn't stop crying and fussing so to calm him down Austin gave him a Butterfinger at 9 in the morning. I guess it was pretty messy but it did work.

First Snow

This morning we woke up to snow! As most of you know, Austin really loves snow and was so excited. He jumped out of bed and immediately got Luke into his snowsuit. The only problem is that Luke's snowsuit is from last year and is way too small for him now. He couldn't walk or move at all (kind of like The Christmas Story). Anyway, Austin put Luke in the sled and pulled him around on the small amount of snow on the ground.

Our latest hiking adventure!

Here we on the top of the mountain. There were spray-painted words of "Go Home" "Go Away" "No hunters" etc. so we left

A view from the top: Harris Creek Road - but where is Joel and Melanie's house?

Luke resting while we had some snacks. He was glad to be out of the backpack and crawl and walk around.

Before Austin started working for R.C. Willey we figured we better take another long hike. We were up at mom and dad's so we decided to hike a mountain near their place. It lasted about 4 hours and was beautiful and so fun. The hike was similar to hiking to the Y at BYU - straight up a mountain with no breaks. But it was fun. I don't know how Austin does it with Luke on his back, straight up.
We had to cross a lot of fences too. At one point, I was attempting to cross a fence so I threw my backpack over to make it easier to cross, but as I threw it over, the mountain was so steep that the backpack went flying down the hill for a long ways. It finally got stuck on some sage brush. I had to hike down and get it - so lame.
At the top of the mountain there as a flat space where we had a little lunch.
Luke had a great time too although he got a little tired near the end. He even fell asleep on Austin's back as we tried to make our way down the mountain.
The views were breathtaking and it was fun to call mom and dad's family so they could find us with the binoculars. We are excited for our next one, anyone who wants to come is invited!

New Haircut

Here are some shots of my new haircut compliments of mom. Thanks mom! These pics would probably look better if I didn't have an awesome cold sore on my lip. Yikes!
