Hitting the Slopes

Colin and Bill have been out on the hills a few times this late winter. The MN Parks and Rec promoted free winter passes for 4th graders. So they've been make the most of it.

We had Sydney out for her first lesson on Buck Hill last weekend. Once we told her this was where Lindsay Vonn started she was hooked. She did a second lesson and cried when I made her leave at 5pm. All week she's been asking to go again. So, we're off to the hill tomorrow morning.

CP on the hill.

She loved the boots and didn't want to take them off all day!

In line for the magic carpet. 

Morning lesson #1. 

Happy 10th Birthday Colin

Celebrating with Baby Quinn and family, Colin picked a bright green frosting for his extra chocolaty cake. The candle is standing in for a "1" candle. His big gift was a larger bike with gears.

He got to have one more large friends party. The group went to see Black Panther! The boys were up and down the entire time. One, who had seen the movie, left twice for concessions. One came from a basketball tourney and had to use the bathroom 4 times, and the twins were just extra wiggly. Bill and I will have to actually watch the movie another time.
