Another day of skiing for some of the Shecklets and their dad. Shecklet #3 has given skiing a try and likes it. Shecklet #2 brought his friend along for the day. It sounds like warmer temps are on the way, so it might be their last day out of the season.
The hairnets are compliments of FMSC. We picked meals with our Saints Yes! kids from church this morning.
Our Shecklet #4 had her final single-digit birthday today! She requested mini hamburgers on Hawaiian rolls. We had a few family members over to celebrate with us on the 19th and then she skied on her actual birthday. Year #9 seems to be off to a great start!
Two separate days with friends (who are brothers.) I love that they enjoy being active outside in the winter! ❄️❄️❄️
I took Shecklets #1 & 3 to meet up with Aunt Larissa for a snowshoe walk this afternoon. It was so nice to be outside and get fresh air!
Meanwhile, Jake took Shecklets #2 & 4 skiing.
Shecklet #1 used his height and balance to help hang the lights on Great Grandma Lois’ house for Christmas. He and his dad also decorated the front pine tree with lights, which was a fun surprise for her.
He also used his talents to help hang his Aunt Larissa’s lights, too!
Hooray for the return of another “normal” activity! The kids and their friends ran through the neighborhood collecting an incredible number of full size candy bars this year. (I must admit, I jumped on this train of thought this year and it was amazingly simple – and about the same price, if not cheaper, than buying all of those mini bars of candy.)
While kids did their thing, a friend of mine (and mom to 4 of the kids,) hung out, handed out candy and sipped cider. Yum!
Two dogs and to Darth Vaders. These four made quite the haul!
Trollhaugen had a ski swap and other activities today. One of the things we did was ride the chairlift up and walk down.
We also picked up our passes and Jake bought some new gear. It’s been over 20 years, so we figured he was due!
Today’s CC race brought us close to Aunt Larissa’s house. We called her en route to see if she wanted to come watch. She was free, so she joined me and the girls to cheer on Shecklet #2. He improved his time almost 50 seconds over his race last weekend!
