Winter Adventures

 

We had a lot of fun this winter as a family.  We were finally able to get up on the ski hill as a family.  We were able to get up to Brundage a handful of times and I was able to get the kids up to Bogus Basin a few times too.  McKay of course picked it up super quickly and after just a few times he was the master of the Bear Chair.  His slogan for the year as we were getting off the chair lift was "Skis up, Farts out".  He thought that he was pretty funny. Brooklyn also improved a lot this year.  She could go on any of the chair lifts.  It was so fun to be able to explore the mountain with her.  The best part was that they were always excited to go and they can't wait for next ski season.  Since we were on the mountain a lot, that meant we also spent a lot of time at the cabin.  The kids loved playing in the snow and I am just grateful that they don't need me to play out there with them.

Brooklyn also had her first ever volleyball season.  She picked it up really quickly and made some big improvements throughout the season. She also had basketball season.  We worked a lot on her lay ups and dribbling.  I was able to help coach which was a lot of fun. We also had the chance to go to the Monster Jam.  It was our first time taking the kids to a monster truck rally.  It was very loud but we sure had a blast.  I love that the kids are old enough to take them to do fun outings like these.  We had a lot of fun this winter, it was busy, but sometimes that's the best.
