Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-- if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.

Mt. Bachelor 2010

We all had so a great time at Bend, OR or (Ben's House, as Blake called it). There were 4 adults and 4 kids in a small condo. But it was a blast. Rachel and I were able to trade off watching the kids so that we were all able to ski. We even took the kids for a small test run at skiing. Brian and I were so excited they seemed to really like it. We thought we had a few more years till they could hit the slopes with us. We are planning to take the kids another time this year and we will see how that goes.
I didn't realize how much skiing has been apart of Brian and my life together. We have been to the Condo almost every year for over 10 years. We got engaged on the mountain, had ski passes in college, try to go at least once every year(wish we could go more but...) and it would be so fun to enjoy this with our kids.


Aly did not love putt putt golf???
They have a ghetto putt putt golf course, but it was perfect for our beginner kids.

The kids
Braidy and Brian on the chair lift to the summit. Conditions were amazing, usually the summit is closed due to high winds. But not this year!! Good times.
On the top of the mountain, just around the corner from where we had our engagement picture taken.

The cutest kids ever!! I love them all.

Blake and Carter were being weirdos, lying on the floor having a blast together.
Eating lunch!!
The park
I have a picture of Blake in this swing when he was actually a baby. He wanted to swing in the baby swing, at least he didn't fall off and bite his tongue like his sister did that day.
These are from January, another trip to Vancouver to say goodbye to our friends Rob and Laura who are in Mexico.
Brian and Rob (Rob asked me not to put this picture on facebook, I don't think he realizes I have a blog:) Ok he probably has no idea what a blog is.

What silly kids. We will miss them, but maybe one day we can all go see them in Mexico??
Blake being silly in the car.
SWIMMING, they love it
What Blake does best in a pool, well sitting in the hot tub with mom.
