Healing Waters

The first week of December, Brandon and I took a road trip up to Idaho to bathe at Lava Hotsprings. Great R&R! We got massages, turned to prunes, ate breakfast with the locals, and grabbed dinner and a movie in Pocatello. Very romantic, I know. Really though I loved the podunk town. How nice is it to walk a block to breakfast and two blocks to the hot springs. Brandon is already talking about making another trip up in January. We stayed in a remodeled place that wasn't creepy and bought groceries at the new market. I think everyone should go at least once. I got turned onto this place as a child while taking summer trips with my parents. Nostalgia is a great thing.

Everyone meet baby Ewan Louw Taylor. He was born Nov 29. What a sweet , perfect boy. Our fmily is so excited to have him as our newest addition. I am trying to warm Brandon up to the idea. I even got him to hold the new babe, and have a picture to prove it. For now I'll enjoy holding Ewan, and am looking forward to the birth of baby-boy Blackwelder in a couple months.
