Spring Break!

Well...We are home from an amazing Ski Vacation. One of the funnest ever. There were 16 of us that went together: the 5 of us, my parents, Monty & Jennifer & kids, and Wesley & April & kids. There were also others there we got to ski with some: Cindy (April's mom) & Glenn and Cory & Keri Summers & kids. That just added to the fun. But.....there was a part of the family that didn't go this year and WE REALLY MISSED YALL!!! THERE IS ALWAYS NEXT YEAR!!!

We traveled on Saturday, skied on Sunday,Monday, and Tuesday, then headed home on Wednesday. A little too short for me. I think I needed one more day this year. That might have something to do with the fact that it snowed ALL day Sunday and I don't really enjoy skiing on those type of days. Now...Monday and Tuesday were awesome!!! In fact, people were skiing in shorts and most of us are sunburned. THAT IS THE WAY I LIKE IT!!!!

Dalton and Caitlyn and the rest of the kids ran the mountain like it was their backyard. Chad and I didn't even get to see them that much, but they had a blast. Ski Cooper is such a nice, small place that there is no worries about letting them go off on their own. Denim actually got to get out of the daycare and ski a little bit this year. She had private lessons on the first 2 days and then skied a run with us on Tuesday. It is amazing how much she learned in a short period of time.

We did have 1 person have to ride down in the Ski Patrol sleigh, but I will let her tell everyone. The last run of the last day is always questionable!

























































































































We are glad to be home and hope to see some of you soon. Enjoy the pictures. I am adding an album with more pictures to Facebook, so check it out too.

Basketball Comes to an End!

I forgot to put up some basketball pics.  We had a full weekend of it.  Caitlyn's team struggled a little bit this year. It is hard to compete when you have 7 players and the other teams have another team sitting on the bench (even the other Caddo team had almost twice as many as we did). Is that what we call fair in this town?  Anyway....They lost their very first tournament game Friday night. That's ok! They played hard all season and we are very proud of them. Dalton's team did great! They won their first tournament game, but then lost their second. They are a great team and going to be even better playing school sports. I can't wait! I would have liked to see both teams keep winning, but we wouldn't have been here next week for the championship anyway. We are Colorado bound!

Now on to some baseball and softball. ..  FUN  FUN  FUN!!!!

Playing at the Park

Denim and I had some time at the park last week while Caitlyn was at a birthday party. It was so nice and beautiful. We ran through and got us some ice cream and then played in the sun. I love having all the kids together,  but it sure is nice to spend some one-on-one time with them sometimes too. I got a couple of really good pics while we played. Enjoy!!
