Okay! Most of you know that our family LOVES to go snowmobiling! I have been going pretty much every winter for almost as long as I can remember. The kids have all been within there first few months of life, Connor was only a month old for his first ride! This weekend was supposed to be this years trip and Maycie's first time out. Well, as things go LIFE got in the way. We have all had a cold and this last week it made it to Maycie. After ALOT of back and forth we finally decided that it just couldn't happen this year. We were all very disapointed. Mommy cried that Maycie wouldn't get the same "first ride" as all the other kids had gotten. Jaxon did the tipical teenager "I'm not going to show I'm disapointed" routine. It didn't hit Connor until after we were supposed to BE snowmobiling. Porter said family prayer Friday morning (the day we were supposed to leave) and blessed that everyone else would be safe and have fun. Then he sat down on our bed and looked REALLY sad. See it is my (Brook's) grandparents that have the snowmobile's and they live in Burley ID. Part of the deal is that we get to go to Grandma and Grandpa Snowmobile's (Perkins) house. Porter looked at Jeron and I and said "we don't get to go to Grandma and Grandpa's and it is like the only time we get to go to there house!" And then the tears came. It was good to know that as much as they love the snowmobiling, they love everything about the trip!
Part of Connor's disapointment came from he didn't get to ride his new snowboard! He got a snowboard from Mom and Dad for his birthday "knowing" he would get to use it when we went snowmobiling. He was very bummed out! Ridding it down a grass hill just isn't the same!

Looks like he might get a chance to use his snowboard on some real snow. I think this post caused the snow storm:)
