This weekend we took off for Swan Valley, Idaho. Shawn has been putting some long hours in at work, so he was able to take off around noon to hit the road. I was trying my hardest to keep Cruz awake until Shawn got home so he could nap for part of the drive up to Idaho. As you can tell from this picture he didn't quite make it. He feel asleep on the couch as I was taking some bags out to the truck!!! He was such a good trooper in the car, though. He luckily slept for about half the drive time in the car.
Cruz loves his dog, Hector, and his white blanket to go to sleep. An impressive fact, Hector was actually Shawn's when he was young. HIs mom saved it for Shawn's kids one day! We drove from our house to Idaho Falls, which takes about 3 hours. We stopped at a McDonalds playland in Idaho Falls to let Cruz run around for a bit. We arrived at my parents place in Swan Valley about 6:00 p.m.
We were lucky enough to have Grandma R join us for the weekend. When we got to the cabin we started putting things away. I opened the fridge to put some of the food away and almost threw up. There was this HORRIBLE smell coming from the fridge. It took us a second and then realized the fridge somehow had no power to it and everything in the fridge and freezer was room temperature. Luckily we don't keep too much in the place when we are not there, but it was enough to create a terrible stench! After we put Cruz down to bed, the 3 of us worked with Clorox and Kitchen Spray to try and get the fridge cleaned out!! That was not a pleasant surprise.
The next day was Valentines Day. Cruz got this school bus from the secret Valentine for Valentines Day!
Saturday afternoon we went skiing at Grand Targhee (one of my favorite ski resorts). My mom and I traded off skiing and watching Cruz.
Today we woke up to this glorious (but cold) morning. Shawn tried to capture the glistening beauty. We went to church and then on a small hike up Palisades Canyon. Overall, it was a fun weekend getaway!!
