A Boys Weekend!







The boys went on this amazing camp-out with their Adventure Guide group. They got to canoe, hike, ride horses, shoot guns, shoot an arrow from a bow and many, many other very "boyish" things. Needless to say,they had a blast!

More ski trip pictures





Amazing ski trip!

We took an amazing family ski trip at the beginning of February. The boys really wanted to see snow so...we gave in and took them to Utah! We flew into Salt Lake City and sadly, our first stop was an urgent care clinic! Lu was sick! He threw up 3 times the night before we left and ran fever on the entire plan ride! He was diagnosed with strep throat and given meds, but I really think he had the flu - or maybe a combination of both! Needless to say, he and I spent a lot of time in the condo. That was ok by me, because our condo was beautiful! We were amazed at the true beauty of Utah (the boys and I had never been!) and it had been such a long time since I had seen mountains and snow, I swear I forgot how gorgeous it could be! Lu got better (then I caught the flu part), but our vacation was not to be ruined! G and B went on a snow mobile tour and skiid 2 days while Lu and I played around our condo and skiid for one day! The entire family also went tubing which I had never done before, but sure did enjoy. All in all it was an awesome trip and we are looking forward to going again really soon when we are all 100%! Oh, and to brag on the boys, B was skiing blues by the first afternoon and he did not even go to ski school! Daddy taught him and did a remarkable job! Lu was skiing greens on his first day and had he been feeling better I am sure he would have been following his brother down those blues!
