You, me

While Skyping with Grandma Parmentar, Lena is showing off her new tricks.

Lazy Saturday

My little artists

Thank goodness for Crayola Color Wonders that show up clear on anything other than their special paper!  By the way, I think Lena might be a lefty.

Not the answer

Another 9" of snow yesterday.  I'm trying just about everything I can think of to entertain M and L.  I built a fort with a blanket and chairs in the living room this morning.  I remember loving this as a kid.  They must be a little too young still, because after thinking it was cool for about five minutes, all they wanted to do was get out and climb on the chairs.  You can see how it all ended- Lena tipping over in one of them and crying.  I think we will try coloring for a bit this afternoon.  All other suggestions are welcome!

Ski pics

 

Skiing yesterday was awesome.  I had a bit of a slow start (have only been skiing once before about seven years ago), but Chris was great from the beginning.  My good friend Kim and her husband Chad met us out on the slopes.  Who knew there was such a fun place to go skiing just under an hour from us?!
