Life is keeping us busy
The boys finished up their skiing lessons yesterday at the pass. The conditions were phenomenal with more than a foot of fresh powder waiting for us. As you can see from the picture below however, it looks like we brought the mountain weather home with us.
Nathan has already missed a couple of weeks of baseball, due to our Saturday ski outings, but he’s excited to join his old team mates (this is the 3rd year he’s played with the same kids) and usher in the spring time weather with a little baseball.
Ian is also doing incredibly well with his skiing. Both he and Nathan have been skiing black diamond runs for the past three weeks. Erin and I are looking forward to enrolling Cole along side the other two next year and planning a ski vacation at Whistler.
Ian’s decided to give t-ball a try this year, so it’s going to be a busy spring time

And then there’s Cole. I can’t believe that he’s going to be turning 4 years old on Tuesday! Cole started swimming lessons a couple of weeks ago and I’m told that he’s wasting no time picking up where he left off last year.
A couple of weeks ago, we brought Cole skiing and I took him on the chair lift a few times. He had a great time and was completely wiped out by days end. He actually passed out on Erin’s lap at the bottom of the slopes as we were waiting for Nathan and Ian to finish their lessons. If you ask him about it, he’ll proudly tell you that he did four face plants. He must have picked that up from Nathan, who continues to think it’s cool to crash
BTW, we did capture some video from Cole and the other boys skiing. I’ll try and post it soon, once I figure out the best way to make it available on the site without lag, crashes and other bad side effects.
One last picture that I took this morning out of the back window this morning. I thought it was supposed to be spring time?
