2/8/15 The week was cold, bitterly cold
by Wed and Thursday mornings,-15 and -22. That is so cold. Friday it started to
warm up and Seven Oaks had another Homeschool ski day, so I took the kids and
hit the slopes at 3:00. I was a taxi today after Jayden and Jacob did school, I
drove them to an art class in Ogden, then drove to Dayton to get Luke from
school, then back to Ogden to get the kids, then on to Boone to ski. I knew it
would be a great day to ski and it was. The temperature was around 40 so we weren’t
cold at all. There was fresh new snow and plenty of it thanks to the recent
snow storm. It was great and the kids were all having a good time and nobody
fell the whole day. Mark came for an hour and watched the kids too. It is hard
for him not to ski. I told him by the time his hip is all healed and he is
ready to ski, the kids won’t be beginners anymore and we can all ski together.
I still haven’t had any luck getting Luke on the chair lift yet. We alternated
going on the big hills so Luke could stay on his bunny hill. He takes that rope
tow up and zips right back down over and over. I bet he went down 40 times.
Saturday we took
Karen and Orrie out for their Anniversary at Second Street Emporium. Jayden
painted with Grandma in the day, did the heart painting. Sunday was pretty
busy. We were greeters at church, went to Buhr’s in the afternoon, then to a
4-H meeting that night. The kids were excited with the warm temperatures and
nice snow to be outside. I packed all their snow gear and told Buhr’s they were
set to build a snowman. Sadly the kids all sat in front of a movie and never
went out. I couldn’t really do much not being in my home. "Do you wanna build a snowman?"
