Growing with the Little Hittles: February 2010

A few more

E thought I should take these for perspective. I'm not sure if that's physical perspective or mental. At least if it snows much more, we'll be really warm because we'll be encased. Does anyone want to buy our house??

Nope, that's not one of the boys.

How much snow blew into the garage with all the doors closed.

Yikes! We only thought the drifts were big before...

I wasn't going to post anymore snow pictures, but I can't help it this morning. This frustrating storm caused us to cancel many fun plans this weekend (sleepover, birthday dinner out, swim lessons, friends coming in for the weekend...grr...), so I guess I need to vent. I'm ready for Spring!!!

Looking out at the spring house from the basement door.

And from above. We can't even see the propane tank anymore.

Sigh....

Skiing

TW and TJ went skiing for the first time last week. They both did great and can't wait to go again. Lucky for them, they get to go with E on Tuesday. E is excited, too--he has new ski buddies and we're starting a whole new chapter of family activities. Only 4 more years until we can ALL go together!

Outside the lesson hut

TW (in green) riding the conveyor belt up the "mountain" (much easier than a Poma lift, I might add)

Here he comes!

Doing the Giant Slalom

Good at stopping

We're all proud!

TJ in orange riding the lift to the bigger bunny hill, "Belly Flop"

Too cool for school

Stopping.....

Yes, we are proud, too!

J, who doesn't get to ski until he's 5, mainly wanted to know, "When do I get to SNOWBOARD?!" Look out Shaun White!

Think Spring!

I know it's still February, but I'm giving up the drama and thinking Spring! with my new background colors...that being said, I need to post some skiing pictures soon!
