While on our " fun in the FREEZING cold" trip, we took the kids (caleb and ashlee) skiing/snowboarding to Brighton for the day. This is coincidentally where I learned to ski in the 7th grade with Micah Cook....ahhh memories. I am pretty sure that ashlee did better than me on her first time. Apparently I am out of the ski loop because they don't call it snowplowing any more, it's called making a pizza. She took lessons in the morning while we did some runs, then after lunch she announced that she was ready to go on the big lift with the rest of us. Sure enough, she did a great job. I fell more than she did. She was pretty ticked at first because she didn't have "sticks" like the other skiers but she got over it and we had a blast. Next year we are going to take Sydney so we can all go as a family. grandpa came too and got some great video so you can wait in suspense until I figure out how to post it. Just starting our day!!
Caleb is 13 and ready to start 8th grade. I can't believe I have a teenager. He is super smart and pretty much the coolest kid. His favorite sport is basketball and he loves his ipod.
Ashlee
Ashlee is 9 and is the sweetest girl. She is a huge help with the baby and she still loves horses and all animals.
Sydney
Sydney is 6 and loads of trouble. She will be starting 1st grade this year. She is very creative and has a silly sense of humor.
Ethan
Ethan is 6 months old and is seriously the sweetest baby ever. He is happy and loves his brother and sisters. We sure do love this little guy.
