Spring Skiing

We stuck around town for Spring Break this year, and even though it was a pretty dreary rainy week, we got out and enjoyed our time with Piper out of school.  

The rock gym was a big hit.  The boys ran around, used the belaying ropes as rope swings and played on all the bouldering mats.

Piper kinda liked climbing, then all of a sudden really liked climbing and got motivated to climb higher when someone put dum dum suckers  in high holes up the rock wall.

Funny how much this kid is motivated by sugar.  The cross country skiing and snowshoeing excursion with her friends went a lot smoother when there was a reminder of the cookies waiting for her in the shelter.


 Thank you Quin and Lily for the yummy baked goods.


We have been doing so much cross country skiing this year and not too much down hill, but Dave recently got some new skis and even a spring pass at Bachelor, so squeezing in some runs will be top of mind for him.  Actually last week we found a babysitter for the boys while Piper was in school and together got an amazing day on the slopes.  The snow was perfect and so much fun.  Yay spring skiing!


Weekend morning pancakes!


Super fun Easter party at Kaden's grandparents house in Sisters.  What a view!  I am sold on living close in town where we do now, but man the wide open space at Shannon's parents house really made me miss our first house in Tumalo.  Love those mountain views!  There was a big turn out for this second annual Easter Egg hunt party complete with crafts, yummy food and fun friends to hang out with.




The Easter Bunny even visited Calvin, Jett and Piper at our house too.  


I even got to sneak in some great girl time with some friends cross country skiing a big loop then out to dinner.  Yay...FUN!
