This year we stayed up at the Sun Valley Lodge. Our room overlooked the ice arena, and as a result we got to see their amazing ice show from the comfort of our hotel room. Both boys loved dancing to the music and Miles particularly enjoyed seeing the colorful lights. Scott and I thought the skaters were incredible.
Miles and Tate had a blast simply "entertaining" themselves in the hotel room. Parents of little boys know that if there is anything to be jumped from or climbed upon, boys will either find it or create it. Even at 9 months, Tate loved to participate.
The hotel had 3 different pools on the compound, but our favorite was the one that they kept at over 90 degrees. Miles wanted to swim everyday and made a couple of swimming pool buddies. Tate loved floating around and flashing his dimples at all of the girls.
We loved to take long walks through the town of Ketchum. It was really beautiful, with amazing shops and friendly people. There was also this lovely pasture with some seriously spoiled horses. These horses led a charmed life. They lounged around while locals and tourists wandered by to pet them and feed them carrots. We only added to their gluttony.
Scott's favorite thing to do in the Sun Valley area is to bike. There are so many trails, but our favorite is the one down by the river that runs from Ketchum to nearby Hailey. Tate was a little unsure about the biking expedition, but Miles was a sport and had a fun time.
although he wishes that it was. Fearing that
he would be diving to certain injury, I talked
him out of it, and he and Miles threw rocks in
the water instead.
Just before leaving town, we stopped by our favorite little sandwich shop, "Perry's". Scott posed for this action photo, so that we could rub it in the faces of a couple of our friends who love to eat here and had not been in a few years. We are such kind friends.
