On Friday, this was exactly the place I wanted to be. In the warmest seat in the house with my glass of wine and working on my crossword puzzle.
It was a beautiful morning on Saturday to be skiing. The little kids, U8 and U10, were ready for their fun race.
There was fresh snow the day before and everything was nicely groomed. The lift even opened before 9:00 so we got some first tracks in. We did a few runs together and then Dave went to help set up for the race.
Q coming across the finish line. The kids were all grouped together in the results, but we think he came in 11th out of his U10 boys group. He looked great!
Standing with his buddies at the awards.
When we got home, Dave waxed E's skis, we watched some women's downhill, and then had steak for dinner.
And then we watched the rest of a movie we had started last week.
We were up extra early on Sunday because there had been quite a bit of snow overnight and we knew our drive would be slower than normal, plus Dave had to shovel out the driveway. I should have taken a picture but I think there was at least 15 cm overnight. We were slower than normal on some snow covered roads, but we were still there in plenty of time.
I dropped E and Dave off at The Heights for E's ski race. This is the U14 team.
E and his buddy.
They had a combination GS and ski-cross (or terrain) style race. It looked like lots of fun. E looked great. One of the parents got these phots of all our kids.
Meanwhile Q and I were at our normal hill for Q's training. The fresh snow made for a great day. I got lots of runs in and didn't want to stop, but eventually had to get packed up.
We celebrated Super Bowl when we got home with our own nachoes and wings.
We were happy that Philidelphia won but was surprised it was such a blow out. I did not care for the halftime show, as I said when I blogged about the Grammys I'm not a Kendrick Lamar fan so it didn't hit for me.
Gosh I feel so old.. I have zero clue who Kendrick Lamar even is! (I tired a Google search but that really didn't help-- my boys all listen to vastly different music but not much "new" stuff). It sounds like a wonderful weekend skiing. Those action shots of the boys are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThe skiing pics are awesome! Nachos are a great game day snack. Now I want to do my lazy nacho dinner…maybe this weekend.
