Hardware Ranch

We went to Hardware Ranch on Saturday. It's a little bit of a drive from our house, about 2 1/2 hours. We had been driving about 2 hours and were getting ready to head up Blacksmith Fork Canyon. James told us he needed to go potty so we told him we could stop. He asked, "Are we going to go home so I can go potty?" I sure hope not!
It was a beautiful, sunny day on the ranch. Fresh, clear air. It was 45 degrees and felt so nice. Funny how that can feel so warm after temperatures in the single digits. We met Miranda and her family there and also Beckie and her family. All the kids had fun playing together in the snow. We had picnic lunches and then went on a sleigh ride to see the elk. It was really cool.While we were sitting on the sleigh watching the elk Lynnlee asked, "Are we going to shoot them?"

Marshall was so awesome and carried Kaden in the front pack the whole time. My back and shoulders appreciated it!
