So we are done with freeze outs for new year's for awhile while we have little ones, staying in the snow cave with Talon last year was a little much.
This year we decided to stay in a Yurt instead. This is a high class yurt with TV, Carpet, Hot Chocolate and Popcorn. It is our friends Lance and Cami Taysom's. They finished last year and now rent it out as a B&B, perfect for a fun family get-away or a get-away with your spouse (wink). Check it out: www.caribouyurt.com
Anyways, we had a great night, eating some amazing potato soup of Cami's, looking at pictures Lance's pictures of his trip to Denali, and of course the YURT!!!
Talon LOVED it!! My mom and Dad were worried he'd get cold and asked him if he wanted to go home with them and he said "NO!"(which he never says no to). He ran around and around wanting to put wood on the fire, squishing "snowman" that we had tracked in, drinking hot chocolate, eating popcorn, playing with the huge stuffed moose, and of course terrorizing. He had so much fun he stayed up for the New Year!
Around 10:30 we put Ice Age in to watch to come Talon down and get him to sleep. This is how he watched the first 15-20 minutes of the movie, hanging off the side of the bed. The movie wasn't boring enough and he stayed up for the whole thing.
Finally, after midnight, a sleeping Talon
Tyler keeping cozy by the fire!
New Years morning, looks like Talon didn't get enough sleep, imagine that.
Our New Years day consisted of getting stuck in the Taysom's drive and getting pulled out (which Talon loved, thank you Jesse), a big Belgian Waffle breakfast with my parents and Caitlin and Ryan, and hiking and skiing the ski hill. It was a great way to start off the New Year!
