Bear den...pretty cool!

So while we were hunting for the perfect tree on the mountain, we exchanged paths with a momma bear and her cub. Scary right!!! But nothing happened, our kids were far enough out of the way, and the momma bear and her cub just ran away up the mountain...thank goodness!

Christmas Tree Trip

Well it was time for our annual Christmas Tree Cutting trip. It gets more and more interesting the more kids we add. It seems that I am either pregnant, or have a baby in my arms...but I can see the older kids are getting more into it! This year, it was warm enough to have a little fun in the snow! FINALLY!
Here is Kate and Kevin sledding...nice face uh!!!

The Carpenter Clan...

My little P...so serious...you just want to squeeze her (and I do all the time)!
