Is it Summer yet?

Last Saturday Papa brought Lincoln out to breakfast and then to the Iron Dog races with Kevin and the boys. From there they went snow-machining at Kev's house. Lincoln arrived home about 5 hours later, sound asleep, with half-finished pizza in his lap. Thanks Papa for the best day in the whole world!

Cheetah girl enjoyed some playtime without her big brother

The next day I attempted to bring the kids skiing by myself! I strapped Lincoln into his cross country skis, bundled up Shiloh and sat her in the sled which I bungee strapped to my waist and off we went!

Cross country skiing is hard! Lincoln threw a fit while the truck was still in view so off came the skis and I plopped him in the sled with his sister.


They made it about 20 yards before they both jumped off in favor of playing in the snow.



Fifteen minutes later I dragged 2 screaming kids UP the hill to the truck and decided that maybe next time we'll go skiing AFTER the nap.

Fortunately the snacks waiting for us made everything slightly better
