Ski Trip!

At the end of February we went on a ski trip with our neighbors Chris, Christina, and Jacob. We had a really good time. We left on a Friday after the boys got off work. We drove to Guymon to drop off the dogs and stay with my mom. The next morning we got up and went to New Mexico. We spent the first day in the mountains getting settled in. The second day we headed off to the slopes. It was the kids, Chris, and Christina's first time to ski, so they went to ski school. Chris and Christina decided that 1/2 a day ski school was enough and skied the bunny slope most of the time. Andrew was good enough by the second day that we only put him in 1/2 a day and skied with him the rest of that day. By the end of our trip all of the kids jumped on the lifts and skied down the bunny slope. It was a blast. Our cabin was beautiful. I think it was one of the most perfect trips that I have been on.

Jewel!

Last night we went to a Jewel concert at the Riverwind. We wanted to gamble, so we left the kids with a babysitter early and gambled before the concert. Man that is addicting. I started with $20 on the slots and ended up with $40. At one time I was up to $50. Then we played Blackjack. That was fun. I started with $60 and ended up with $65. I got up to $75, but I didn't know when to stop. Jason on the other hand, his luck wasn't with him. He lost about $125. After the fun gambling, we watch the most amazing concert. I love Jewel. She is an awesome singer. It was such a wonderful date. I love going on dates with Jason. We have so much fun together. Frank, Cindy, Jesse, and his girl friend were at the concert too. I wish I could go back to yesterday morning and do it all over again.

Today, we are just laying around. The kids have been playing Underdog. Andrew was crawling around and Jaden was walking him. They watched the movie. I thought it was cute. I need to figure out more activities for my kids. They have watched so much tv lately. I know it is because we have been snowed in. I will probably make them play outside later this afternoon.

Let it Snow!

Yesterday when we woke up it looked like it was snowing outside. After going out and touching it we realized it was icing outside. I have never seen snow that wet. It was 18 degrees out, and the crazy kids wanted to go out and play. Since they have only seen snow a few times, I let them go out. I timed them, because I knew they wouldn't last long. They went out at 11:08 and came back in at 11:14. I hope they last longer when we go skiing in March. That is right, I get to go skiing the first weekend in March. I can't wait! I think I am going to do a count down. 30 days until I hit the slopes! I haven't been in like 5 years, and we are going with some of our friends Chris and Christina Hayes. So exciting...

ICE!

Man it is icy.... I hate ice. It is so dangerous. I just hope we get to keep our power. I think it is pretty cool how it gives our driveway spots, but that is the only thing cool about it. The weather says that it is only going to get worse tomorrow. So I guess I will have another lazy day tomorrow.
