Skiing

Darin took Gavin and Garrett on their first skiing trip this weekend. The night before they left, Darin and I were talking about what we thought it would be like for the kids. Judging from past outings and events, we thought Garrett would be working on flips after an hour on the slopes and that Gavin would be wanting to go home. Well.........we were shockingly wrong!! Gavin was a natural. Darin showed him the ropes and he just took to it. After the first couple of hours, Gavin was riding the lift and skiing down over and over, while Darin worked with Garrett. Garrett had a rough go of it at first, but once he got some lunch in his belly, he did great, but by the end of the day he was exhausted (as you will see in the photos). Garrett fell asleep on the way home (4:00 pm), was still asleep by 8pm and didn't wake up until almost 8 am! Gavin has asked a couple of times if we can buy him some skis and they both want to know when they can go again.








Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Kierstin and I played all day. We played dolls, kitchen, did laundry (real), and had a great girls day. She skipped nap - a regular event for her these days- and was exhausted. The boys didn't get home until about 6:30 pm, so as we were all eating dinner, Kierstin passed out in the living room. This photo is kind of like where's waldo, there are so many toys and laundry that it's hard to find Kierstin!


Where's Kierstin?? Here's the answer!
