All is well

We had a busy weekend. Before leaving for a day of skiing we made sure the animals were ready for the cold snap.

We love spending time together outside.

Back at home all the animals did great with Zach and Sam taking care of them.

Winter is coming

The mornings are getting colder and thoughts of snow are on our minds. Winter fun will be here soon. Here are some great shots to get you in the mood.

Ski Trip

We went skiing last weekend. It was very cold but the skiing was great and the skies were bright and sunny. Scout was a little under the weather so we didn't try out her new skis and ski boots. She did have a blast in her sled. We use the KinderShuttle sled around the yard for our chores so she is used to it. She spotted it in the patrol room and pointed to it waving her arms and smiling. Mommy skied with her for 2 hours each day, Scout watching the sights and napping. We will go back in February and hopefully she will be able to try her skis!
