Valentine's Day Party, Kindergarten-style

It all starts with circle time...

Then you add in some animal dancing...

A few crafts...

And some Valentine snacks...

Now that's a party!

And makes for a happy girl.

More Fun with Gail (aka Miss Hanson)

Miss Hanson was one of Paige's preschool teachers at St. Luke's when she was 3-years-old. Since then, she has been our babysitter for years and has become a dear friend. When she agreed to come out for a long weekend so that we could go skiing, we were thrilled to have the opportunity to show her around Colorado for the first time!

So, the fun did not end in Breck...we did some hiking at Red Rocks and went to Evergreen Lake to play in the snow and take our picture with a HUGE trout snow sculpture. :)

Ski Weekend with the Lakes

We spent President's Day weekend with our friends, Scot, Deb & Delaney in Breckenridge. The girls mastered the ski lift and the green slopes during ski school and afterwards we all got to ski together - it was so awesome!

Here are our proud ski bunnies...

Gail, our babysitter from Orlando, flew in to visit and watched Tyler so that the 4 of us could enjoy a beautiful ski day...and some relaxation at the lodge.

We went sledding at Carter Park in Breck...there go the girls down the hill,

And the Lakes also came to check out our Evergreen home...

and of course we played in the snow...

What we've been up to....

Hi all, sorry it's been a while. We had a busy January so I am going to share a bunch of pictures in this post. It has been a relatively dry January, but we just had 36 hour snowstorm Thursday night through Saturday morning that solved that!

First things first, Paige went to ski school in Loveland - she is in the purple snowsuit with the white helmet...and is with her instructor and group of 4 girls in the video below. She had a blast and is looking forward to going again in Breckenridge over President's Day weekend.
