Wood, Sheep, and Festivals

Wood Fairies or another name for the people in the Wood River Valley.  We held true to our moniker this weekend and loaded up the wood pile for the onset of winter.  Zach and Kat headed out Saturday with our Farm Boss chainsaw in tow.  Beautiful fall colors made their work environment seem worth it.

Dax and I checked out some of the Sheep Dog Trails that were happening out Quigley Canyon.  He was mostly excited to see the cowboys on their horses and continues to pretend to ride everything around our house which includes: Lucy, mommy, his trucks, toys, and anything that he can find a way to sit on.  We had to have a talk with him when he came home from school a few weeks ago and the teacher informed us that he was trying to ride the classrooms pet rabbit, Pepper.  

Dax admires the sheep and cowboys in the field.

 Later that day his school had a Harvest Festival where we enjoyed some home made goodies while Dax went round and round on the tin can train with daddy.

He is unhappy in this picture because he thinks he has to get off.

Sunday Dax hung out with Papa & Yaya (Zach's parents) so Zach and I could head out on one more day of wood hunting.  Exhausting work but always well worth it to have a warm fire to sit around in the winter.

Fries at Lefty's with Papa & Yaya what could be better!

Dax enjoyed the annual Trailing of the Sheep parade with his grandparents and didn't seem to miss us one bit.  Thanks Papa & Yaya!
