Reuben is home from the Navy

Reuben went into the Navy reserves in May. He is done with his training and job training. He is home for who knows how long. He thinks he will go to Afghanistan in a year or so, but until then he will just do the one weekend a month and two weeks a year thing for the reserves.
We all went to the airport Friday night at 10:00 to see him come in. His luggage of course was lost so we had to wait until the very last bag to make sure it was lost and then report it lost and it did finally come to my house Saturday afternoon. Everyone came back to my house and spent the night Friday. It was really good to have the whole family there. (of course no Dan because he was out of the country on a flight) We had German pancakes with Carmel syrup for breakfast and then went for a run on the track. Reuben had a hard time running because of the higher elevation vs California. He also thought it was SO COLD!!! We teased him so much.

Then we went to the park and took photos. Right when we were going to take the good ones, my camera batteries died and I had to go get some and by the time I got back everyone was sick of posing. So I didn't get great ones, but some turned out.

Sun Valley, Idaho 2021

We stayed at a cute log cabin by the path that goes from Sun Valley to Hailey. There was a huge open field where we were able to throw the ball and play with the dogs in the snow. We ate lunches out and cooked the other meals in the cabin.  Connelly got  the French dip, Nate got the Pastrami, Kate got Macaroni salad and I got the Acai bowl! This was our fourth year going to SunValley.  We love to shop at the  thrift store, Gold Mine.  We found a lamp, board games, Sorrel snow boots for kate, beanies, and Corral plates for the kitchen!! GOLD MINE! Connelly went to Bald Mountain for the first time.  He was able to ski just as fast if not as fast as me.  The ski runs there are so long.  I never took the kids because they are  so long and I thought they wouldn't last two runs.  Connelly and I did 5 runs!!  It was so fun.  Then we got the souvenir pins for Dolla...
