2014 Week 1 Sledding

We went to our favorite hill, built a jump and tested the new tubes Andrew and Mylie got from Santa.  Wyatt isn't a huge fan of sledding, but he did go down a couple times and really had a fun time playing in the snow. Gwynie also had a fun time even though it was 16 degrees.

Race Day - Gift of Life and Breath

Dying Easter Eggs

Here are some pictures of the kids dying eggs for Easter.

The finished product.

Wyatt is so proud.

Busy working.

Wyatt wasn't quite sure what to think. Why were we putting eggs in juice?

He thought it was to eat.

Casa Bonita

Last time we were down in Denver. My mom didn't want to make dinner so she asked if we wanted to go to Casa Bonita. We had a great time. The kids love that place and Wyatt was just fascinated with it. Thanks Grandma.

Mylie broke the piñata again!!

Our First Visitors

This past weekend we had our first visitors up here in Leadville. Breanne and Ben came to visit us. We had such a great time showing them around our little town and explore new things with them. We went up to Cooper Mountain and Frisco in the morning and then in the afternoon we went to downtown Leadville and walked around all the fun shops. We also went exploring and found some really fun camp grounds that as you will see in the pictures are still covered in a lot of snow. It was a beautiful day. Both Friday and Saturday night we stayed up late visiting and playing games. It was so great to have them here. My kids were so bummed they had to leave. We hope to have more visitors soon.

Snowboarding

Today Mat took Mylie and Andrew snowboarding for the first time. They went to Ski Cooper which is only about 10 minutes from our house. Wyatt and I meet them up there for lunch and took some fun videos and pictures. They had a great time!

Mylie and Andrew going up the ski lift. This may look easy but on a snowboard it is not.
It was a beautiful day for snowboarding. They definitely want to go back again. Next time I hope I get to go with them.
