Mom, her sister Diane, and her brother-in-law Steve arrived on Saturday afternoon around 3:00, just in time to see Mason's last basketball game (for the day)! We then went out to eat for Mason's birthday at Applebys and we got the waitresses to sing happy birthday to him. He was a little embarrassed yet proud at the same time. They got to attend church with us at Vallecito Church yesterday and Mike took Steve and the boys ice fishing. Steve didn't really have the right shoes and clothes on for it but at our urging, he went along anyway. Then the story goes that they stopped at a steep embankment and Big Steve fell not once, but 3 times before he even got to the ice!! The snow was so deep, he said it didn't hurt falling, it hurt trying to get out of it!! Then Landon fell and the snow was waist deep on him and he had to be rescued by his daddy because he couldn't move!! Now let me clarify that they were falling in the snow, not through the ice....they did not even have a bite on the whole fishing thing! Today we initially were going to go into Durango because it was clear this morning but now it looks like a blizzard outside so we may just hang around....
Ok...I had to stop the blog and go outside for pictures...then Diane, Steve, and mom decided that they wanted to sled. Diane did it ...no problem....Steve did it....no problem. Then Mom, who has been extra cautious (until today) got to the top of the hill and then tried to sit on the sleigh but instead rolled down the back of the hill !! It was so funny! She was fine (THANK GOD!) and it felt good to laugh!
This is Diane and Steve and they wanted Emma to see them in all the snow......
Ok, this next picture was made for Don and Faye to see that Mom did go sledding!!.....
Here's live footage of Diane and Steve sledding......
They are amazed at all the snow and Mom says this will be her last visit during winter! She's way too nervous about all the dangers of the snow!
