Christmas Eve Barbershop
So...I know...Gus' hair was getting long...but I just couldn't do it. When you cut a baby's hair, they aren't a baby anymore. Eric kept saying, "Lynn, we need to cut his hair." and I would avoid the conversation. Then, while we were up at the ski lodge, a nice lady sitting by us said, "Oh, she is such a beautiful girl." Gus was wearing his red and navy blue boyish winter clothes. I thought, "It is time." So Christmas eve, I let go of my baby boy and trimmed his curls.
Look at how happy he was!Tuesday, December 23, 2008
SNOW DAY #2!!
Even though school's out for winter break, Eric has to work this week...except the days that we get pounded with snow ! :) Look at that happy face! Almost another foot of snow arrived last night and he woke up to a lab closure message. What a treat!
Breakfast burritos, more neighborhood snow forts, hot cocoa, lounging in our long underwear, donuts, skiing at the ski area and in our front yard.Rudolph the Red-Nosed Puppy
Sadly, Bucky and Chaco are last on my list for getting attention, but they get LOTS of love from the kids. Elise says her favorite thing is Bucky's warm ears. :) Do you think he could pass as a reindeer?
Elise, Gus, and Eric are the biggest dog-lovers I know. When Elise was sick in the middle of the night a few months ago, she stopped to pet Bucky before she came and woke us up.
Opening Day
Pajarito Mountain Ski Area opened on Saturday. It was a busy day -- everyone wanted to get in some good skiing on the first day. Eric took both of the girls on the bunny hill. This is Elise's first real attempt. She was ready for hot chocolate after ~30 seconds. :) I brought Gus up to the lodge and we hung out in a corner. After lunch together, Eric took Elise and Gus home while Maddie and I did a few big runs together.
I cannot believe it opened just in time for winter break!
