Happy Leap Day from Bel Air Staff!

Last week-end Kaydra made us some yummy "Corn Puffs & Almond Bark" treats!


Mommy reads a bedtime story to Claire!

Kaydra loves her ipad, as do the rest of the kids! :)

After a winter of not much snow, we got blasted last Sunday!

Last Friday Nathan, Jeni & kids, Sherry, Lindsay and Ava, Jerry & I decided to head to Cavalier for the week-end. Since Cole had no scheduled activities, it was the only week-end that would work this winter. Anyway, the weather and roads didn't cooperate, but we all made it safely! Buster was introduced to Lindsay's baby Ava!

Buster must have seen something in the dark outside!

We all relaxed with good conversation after a stressful drive!

Cole & Jayden ham it up with Buster!



Jayden was feeling a little under the weather, so thankfully Jeni brought her box of DoTERRA oils! She mixed up something wonderful, as Jayden was good to go the next day!

Buster checks out the Jacuzzi!


Hot tubbing later that night!

Polar Bear Runs for the boys! Brrrr.....very cold windchills that night!





Claire fell asleep on the way to Cavalier, so missed the Fri. night activities! She was happy to see Jayden Sat. morning before his 2 and a half hour BB practice for his traveling team.

Ava got her morning bath in the kitchen sink!

Cutie Pie!

Buster loves going out when anyone is shoveling. He loves jumping up to catch the snow that is thrown!

While Jayden was at BB practice, Cole & Claire decided to go hot tubbing!

Claire went on her very first Polar Bear Run later that day!

Claire absolutely loves babies, and is a natural with them! Lucky kids!


Clowning around, Claire got her skirt hooked on the railing, and got stuck!

Indoor hoops!

Nathan has a slight "Height" advantage!

The girls!

Sweet Ava getting ready for some Pamida shopping!

Claire had display all her purchases!


Fond memories are had of Pamida, as it used to be the prime place to shop in Bottineau before Walmart!

Claire loves goofing around with Jason!


Cole purchased Floor Hockey!

Claire prefers quiet "Girl" stuff!


Bottle Cap jewelry!

Claire is ready to do her very first "Polar Bear Run! "

Mommy Time!

Buster's a little jealous when Tiff holds Ava!

Treat Time!

Ava did a little "Table Dancing" for us!

It's never too cold to grill for Jason!

Tiff brings in the grilled pork chops and chicken, with shrimp still on the grill. Her jalepino cheesy potatoes were great too!

Grandma Time!

Claire was proud of her jewelry creations! She's planning on giving some to her friends!


Ipadding Time!

Trying out Buster's new shock collar! :( He'll need it for safety reasons until he learns boundaries in his yard.

I don't think I need to mention again how much I love this dog!

Walking with Buster in Cavalier

I love this picture of Buster, with the yellow lab planter Jayden bought for Jason, a couple years before Buster joined the family!

"Snow Face!"

When the snow melts, there should be plenty of bones for Buster to chew!

Claire shares her jewelry creations with Daddy!

Ava is the happiest baby ever, and so easy to care for!

More hockey action! Claire thinks she may play hockey, since she's taking ice skating lessons now.


Claire cheers her favorite players on!


All packed for the trip back to Minot!

Wintery Wonderland outside. Wonder how the Wintery roads will be?

The kids agreed the week-end was the best!

The girls enjoyed Lindsay's visit! They've been friends for a long time!

Good times were had by all!

Buster's not happy to see everyone leave!

Best Grandson ever!

Best Hosts ever!

We all had such a fun time, as always!


The roads home were not a "Winter Wonderland!"
