Weekend Recap

 On Friday I walked with Q to school in the snow. It doesn't usually work out for me to walk with him when I am working from home, but that day it did so I took the opportunity. 

That evening I finally got out a few of our Valentine's decorations.

Q had a fun ski race on Saturday morning.  We decorated his helmet with some stickers and a heart headband. 

It was another very cold day, probably the coldest of the season due to the wind.  Warming up at lunchtime. 

Then a little photo shoot before going back out for the afternoon. 

E waxed his skis when we got home for his race the next day. 

I made some Costco frozen pizzas and brought them right downstairs on the board to eat. With some Olympics in the background, it was a great evening. CBC does a great job of making all of the sports available for streaming so if you miss something you can watch the entire coverage later. We were watching the men's downhill here.

On Sunday morning we went to Mansfield for E's race.  It was another very cold day. I opted not to ski but Dave and Q got out there and helped to run coats for our racers. 

The firepit in the sunshine was a warm spot.

Getting ready to race, taking off his snowpants. 

Staying warm with the capes.

Most of the U16 team at the podium ceremony.

After lunch the boys did a few more runs, including on Ferris Wheel, named after my cousin Bruce. 

Q fell asleep in this position, looks pretty uncomfortable to me!

We love to cook for a theme, so we made nachos for the Super Bowl. The nachos were good, the actual Super Bowl was a bit boring. As for the half time show, it looked like it was a good time and I can appreciate it meant something to a lot of people, but it wasn't my favourite only because I didn't know any of the songs. Love that Pedro Pascal was hanging out though!

I think this was our last really cold weekend!
