Bird is the Word

Last Sunday we went to Snowbird with Julie and Tim to enjoy some Oktoberfest and some lovely mountain air.  It was beautiful, mellow, relaxing, and we had the best of company.  It's always a treat to spend time with Julie and Tim because A) we love them  B) they give Isaac soooo much attention and C) like us, they are very laid back, so it's always a good time!
We spent time under the Oktoberfest tent listening to a German band and watching old German couples dance and drink out of GIGANTIC beer steins.  Prost!   Then we all got on the Tram (for free - yee-ha!) and made our way up to 12,000 feet.  Part of the day's agenda, was to get some nice family pictures.  I think we accomplished it, but wow, I don't know how large families do it.  I know Sam is barely 4 months, but it was nearly impossible to get he and Isaac to both look up at the camera at the same time, let alone smile.  We hiked down to the Peruvian and took the chair lift back down and the views were spectacular.  Isaac is still talking about the tram and the chair life - success!

In addition to the pictures I am posting (mostly taken by Tim,) Julie took some great shots of the day, too!  Seen by clicking here..

It was a lovely day (and Jessi, I am sad that your cute family couldn't make it....we need to all get together soon!) Your pictures turned out great. Can't wait to see the rest of them.
