Our first family ski day! Westin and Bennett have been a few times, but this was our first time getting everyone on the mountain. And we had such a fun crew from our ward go up to Snowy Range together:
Geoff made breakfast for everyone in the parking lot before skiing -- pancakes, eggs, sausage. He's so nice to always be up for feeding a crowd. And we're the luckiest, because it's always delicious. The three older boys did a ski lesson together for a couple hours while Michael and I took a whiny Asher up and down an easy hill :) By Michael and I, I mean Michael. The way he carried Asher off the ski lift looked like a magic trick to me, I do not have the skills.
The boys were apprehensive when we dropped them off, and loving life when we picked them up. What a magical ski lesson. After lunch Asher played some cards with friends, and the 5 of us skied blues together! We were shocked at Camden's first time skills.

Haha looking cool for his mountain day.
Westin so bright and chipper back there. |
Camden started his science fair project -- why do we put salt on roads in the winter?
And Bennett started his, too -- can we grow plants with liquids that aren't water?

| A new tennis racquet for lessons! |

Protein snacks for my friend that was just diagnosed with gestational diabetes.
Food is so hard, even when it's straightforward. |

| I made bows with Diane for our doors and it's really making me happy. |

Stake young men's basketball tournament.
It's crazy to me to look at these boys and know that there's going to be a LOT of growing in our future in the next few years. |

Did we show up ON TIME to tennis lessons for all four boys,
just to learn we were one week early?
Yes. But still a win in its own right. |
 |
| Science time. |
 |
| Westin and Forest are out to prove if the 5-second rule is myth or fact. |
We went to a Lunar New Year celebration and it was fun to learn about some different traditions. The boys loved those red envelopes :) And we all loved the food!
