Dinner & Dance

We had to move Valentine's Day up a couple of days this year.  Given the idea from some friends, we got all snazzed up for a fancy dinner to mark the occasion.  Having recently been to Maggie and Matt's wedding, Caleb insisted on a dance party after dinner.  Everyone partook and enjoyed...immensely.  It must have been the bubbly cider.

You're Invited!

Come ski the nordic highway with me...

 

Beautiful Boise

View from Camel's Back Park.  For the record, the Boyce family does not mind being able to get out for a hike and playground visit in upper 40 degree weather, no matter how much we miss the snow.

Blue Jean, Baby Queen

A day shy of 4 months, Maddie sports her first pair of blue jeans and despite a good 20 minutes of effort, refuses to coffer up a smile :)

Idaho City

When it takes longer to get where you're going, when you find out the trail is harder than you expected and when it's undoubtedly colder than you could have imagined...

... well, then you find as many creative opportunities to take a little break as you can :)

Despite its name, Idaho City is NOT a city.  Home to about 500 inhabitants, Idaho City offers up a Boise Basin Gold Rush history and a whole lot of nature.  We took a day to check out the local cross country ski trails, which we will likely not visit again until the little folk can propel themselves without falling down.
